Summary
What if the secret to living to 250 was simply sitting in the garden?
In this episode, Dave sits down with Christian Drapeau, a leading expert in stem cell science, to explore the plants and natural practices that could unlock extreme longevity. From goji berries to reishi mushrooms, these age-old remedies do more than nourish—they activate your body’s innate repair system, boosting stem cells and accelerating healing.
Christian dives into the fascinating stories behind these plants, their ancient origins, and how modern science is proving their power to extend life. He also shares how anyone—regardless of age—can tap into these natural tools to transform their health and longevity. Imagine harnessing the same methods as a Chinese healer reportedly living to 250 years old. Could these practices be the missing link to longer, healthier lives?

| 0:00.0 | You have looked into a guy in China who's reported I've lived for 250 years. |
| 0:05.0 | His name was Li Ching Wien, born in 1678. He passed in 1933. You believe it or you don't? |
| 0:11.0 | I can't say with 100% certainty and no one can. |
| 0:14.0 | Well, go back to your grandfather 10 generations ago and tell me if you can find their birth certificate. |
| 0:18.0 | At 250 years, he's offered a chair, he refuses |
| 0:21.4 | the chair. He's sitting down on the floor with his back straight. He was using a lot of plants, |
| 0:26.2 | trust nature more. Really? You're listening to the human upgrade with Dave Asprey. |

| 1:09.1 | before. He's a friend. Founder and chief science officer of Stem Regen. |
| 1:14.1 | 20 years of studying stem cells and as a degree in neurophysiology |
| 1:18.9 | and has scoured the planet looking for plant compounds that will activate stem cells. |
| 1:25.8 | The reason I'm so interested in this is that I do $50,000 stem cell procedures, |
| 1:32.8 | and most people aren't going to do that at least now. |
| 1:36.8 | And I recognize that. |
| 1:38.9 | So what can you do that activates and moves your stem cells around to the right places |
