For many travelers, Antarctica is a bucket-list destination, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to touch all seven continents. In 2023, a record-breaking 100,000 tourists made the trip. But the journey begs a fundamental question: What do we risk by traveling to a place that is supposed to be uninhabited by humans? And as the climate warms, should we really be going to Antarctica in the first place?

You’ve probably heard of HIIT—but have you heard of “REHIT?” This isn’t just another workout trend...it’s a new science-backed way to train with maximum efficiency and zero wasted time . If you’re still jogging, you’re wasting hours for minimal results. In this episode of The Human Upgrade , Dave Asprey sits down with Ulrich Dempfle , German-trained engineer and co-founder of CAROL Bike , to dismantle outdated cardio advice and introduce the 5-minute protocol that’s obliterating fitness myths. Forget the treadmill grind. REHIT (Reduced Exertion High-Intensity Training) exercising delivers: • 12% VO₂ max increase • 6x the fitness gains of daily jogging • 62% drop in diabetes risk • 5x more BDNF for brain power —all with just 8 minutes of effort per week. But was it? Ulrich unpacks the hard data, crushes the Zone 2 obsession, and shows how a brand-new way of exercising is giving explosive results—no matter your age or fitness level. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • Why Zone 2 cardio is outdated advice for most people • The science of REHIT and how 2 sprints beat 2-hour workouts • The shocking data on VO₂ max, insulin sensitivity, and lifespan • How CAROL uses AI to personalize exercise for any age or ability • Why most people fail at fitness—and how to fix it • The real role of lactate, BDNF, and HRV in recovery and resilience • How perimenopausal women benefit more from REHIT than HIIT or jogging • Why adherence—not intensity—is the #1 predictor of results • What to do when you’re traveling or don’t have access to the tech Resources: • Dave Asprey’s New Book - Heavily Meditated : https://daveasprey.com/heavily-meditated/ • CAROL Bike Website and use code ‘DAVE’ for a discount – https://carolbike.com/ • CAROL Bike Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thecarolbike/?hl=en • 2025 Biohacking Conference : https://biohackingconference.com/2025 • Danger Coffee : https://dangercoffee.com • Dave Asprey’s Website : https://daveasprey.com • Dave Asprey’s Linktree : https://linktr.ee/daveasprey • Upgrade Collective – Join The Human Upgrade Podcast Live : https://www.ourupgradecollective.com • Own an Upgrade Labs : https://ownanupgradelabs.com • Upgrade Labs : https://upgradelabs.com • 40 Years of Zen – Neurofeedback Training for Advanced Cognitive Enhancement : https://40yearsofzen.com Timestamps: • 00:00 Introduction to REHIT Training • 00:24 Meet Ulrich Dempfle: The Mind Behind CAROL Bike • 00:51 The Science and Benefits of REHIT • 01:44 Comparing Traditional Cardio to REHIT • 02:32 Dave Asprey’s Personal Fitness Journey • 03:43 The Efficiency of REHIT Training • 05:03 Practical Applications and Accessibility of REHIT • 08:22 Addressing Common Concerns and Misconceptions • 11:25 The Future of Fitness: REHIT and Beyond • 18:29 Scientific Validation and Real-World Results • 31:53 Clinical Trials and Tech Integration • 32:06 Upgrade Labs and CAROL Bike • 33:00 Mitochondrial Effectiveness and Insulin Sensitivity • 36:05 Zone Two Training vs. High-Intensity Training • 42:02 REHIT for Perimenopausal Women • 48:18 AI and Personalized Exercise • 57:52 Lactate and Exercise Benefits • 01:01:48 Interval Walking Training • 01:04:01 Conclusion and Future Insights See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .…

Dr. Steven Gundry: Is Fungus Secretly Running the World—and Your Gut? : 1270 54:11

hace 14 días54:11

54:11

If your brain feels foggy, your mood swings like a pendulum, or your cravings seem to control you—this episode will flip what you think you know about your body and your mind. Because what if your thoughts… aren’t really yours? In this mind-altering episode of The Human Upgrade , Dr. Steven Gundry reveals a startling new theory: your gut microbiome might be controlling your thoughts. From addiction and depression to obesity and inflammation, the microbes living in your gut—bacteria, fungi, viruses, even parasites—may be pulling the strings on your brain chemistry, mood, and behavior. Dave Asprey and Dr. Gundry dive deep into The Gut-Brain Paradox , exposing how the gut-brain axis operates more like a microbial command center than a digestive system. You’ll learn why probiotic pills rarely work, how the wrong microbes can drive compulsive behavior, and how toxic foods, glyphosate, and antibiotics have turned our guts into neurological war zones. Most shocking of all? Microbes may not just influence addiction—they may cause it. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • How your gut microbiome can hijack your brain and influence your thoughts and behavior • Why certain microbes may actually cause addiction, obesity, and depression • How antibiotics, glyphosate, and processed foods are turning your gut into a desert • How to rebuild your gut ecosystem using postbiotics, fermented foods, and precision inputs • Why food cravings might be microbial mind control—and what to do about it • What the latest science reveals about the gut-brain axis, neurotransmitters, and neuroinflammation Sponsors: -Sunlighten | Go to https://www.sunlighten.com/dave/ and enter code DAVE at checkout to save up to $1,400. -Timeline | Head to https://www.timeline.com/dave to get 10% off your first order.

Longevity Scientists Discover a Breakthrough Peptide That Reverses Hair Loss | Carolina Reis Oliveira : 1269 59:55

hace 18 días59:55

59:55

If your hair is thinning, shedding, or simply not what it used to be—and nothing seems to work—this episode is for you. Because what if the story you’ve been told about balding… is wrong? For decades, hair loss has felt like fate: genetic, inevitable, untouchable. But science is catching up to something deeper—something root-level. What if the real culprit behind age-related hair loss is cellular dysfunction? And what if we could change that? In this episode, Dave Asprey uncovers the cellular biology of hair thinning with longevity researcher Carolina Reis Oliveira. You’ll learn how senescent cells (aka zombie cells) hijack your scalp, disrupt follicle function, and silently accelerate hair loss—and how a breakthrough peptide might stop it cold. Carolina reveals brand-new clinical research on OS-01 , a molecule shown to increase hair density by 40% in just 6 months. But this isn’t a product pitch—it’s a paradigm shift. Together, they explore the hidden drivers of hair aging , from hormone shifts and stress cascades to microbiome imbalances and inflammation, plus the real science behind what can actually regrow hair. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • How “zombie cells” (senescent cells) sabotage your hair from the inside out • The science behind the OS-01 peptide and how it reverses visible hair thinning • Why thinning hair isn’t just genetic—and what else is driving it • How stress, hormones, and aging collide to trigger follicle dysfunction • What your scalp microbiome has to do with regrowth and hair density • How to stack red light, peptides, and topicals for real, measurable results ***Visit oneskin.co/DAVE and use code DAVE for and additional 15% off.*** Resources: • Dave Asprey’s New Book - Heavily Meditated : https://daveasprey.com/heavily-meditated/ • OneSkin Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/oneskin.co/ • OneSkin Website : https://www.oneskin.co/ • 2025 Biohacking Conference : https://biohackingconference.com/2025 • Danger Coffee : https://dangercoffee.com • Dave Asprey’s Website : https://daveasprey.com • Dave Asprey’s Linktree : https://linktr.ee/daveasprey • Upgrade Collective – Join The Human Upgrade Podcast Live : https://www.ourupgradecollective.com • Own an Upgrade Labs : https://ownanupgradelabs.com • Upgrade Labs : https://upgradelabs.com • 40 Years of Zen – Neurofeedback Training for Advanced Cognitive Enhancement : https://40yearsofzen.com Timestamps: • 00:00 — Trailer • 01:52 — Intro • 02:59 — Is Aging Optional for Your Scalp? • 04:03 — Understanding Scalp and Hair Aging • 05:06 — The Role of Senescent Cells in Hair Loss • 07:25 — Hormonal Influences on Hair Health • 16:10 — Peptide Solutions for Hair Thinning • 18:05 — Clinical Studies and Results • 20:29 — Future of Hair Loss Treatments • 30:16 — Nutritional and Lifestyle Factors • 36:40 — Addressing Senescent Cells and Hair Growth • 37:29 — Minoxidil: Oral vs. Topical Use • 39:32 — Personal Experience with Hair Products • 40:25 — Combining Therapies for Hair Growth • 46:06 — Nutritional Factors in Hair Health • 52:20 — Sun Exposure and Hair Health • 56:40 — Coffee and Hair Growth • 01:00:01 — Launching the New Hair Product See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .…

Identity Hacker: How to Completely Change Your Personality at ANY Age | Olga Khazan : 1268 1:06:13

hace 19 días1:06:13

1:06:13

What if you could rewrite the code of your personality—on command? Not just cope with anxiety, overthinking, or social exhaustion… but delete the traits holding you back and install better ones? This episode challenges everything you’ve been told about identity. Dave dives deep into the science of personality change to reveal why your habits, moods, triggers, and even sense of self aren’t fixed—they’re fluid. And more importantly: they’re up for grabs. Joining him is award-winning journalist from The Atlantic, Olga Khazan, author of Me, But Better , who spent years hacking her own mind—transforming high neuroticism, social avoidance, and chronic self-criticism into calm, confidence, and connection.

For decades, gut health was reduced to yogurt commercials and vague promises from probiotics that barely worked. But what if we’ve been targeting the wrong bugs, using the wrong delivery, and ignoring the true source of chronic inflammation and accelerated aging? In this thought-provoking episode, Dave sits down with Hannah Kleinfeld, a leader in microbiome innovation, to expose why most probiotics fail—and how one company’s scientifically validated approach could redefine your gut, brain, immune system, and even your metabolism. You’ll learn how dysbiosis may be wrecking your brain without you knowing it, why your probiotic likely died in your stomach acid, and the secret to rebooting your microbiome after antibiotics, GLP-1 drugs, or years of toxic exposure. This isn’t just about digestion—your gut controls your cravings, energy, sleep, mood, and aging trajectory. So what’s the one upgrade that can actually reset your gut… for good? What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • Why your gut—not your brain—is making most of your decisions • How 93% of probiotics on the market fail before they reach your intestines • The “AB 10” protocol that rebuilds your gut after antibiotics or SIBO • What GLP-1 weight-loss drugs are doing to your microbiome (and how to stop it) • The shocking gut–brain–heart axis connection you’ve never heard of • Why inflammation, brain fog, and mood swings may start with leaky gut • Which probiotic strains are clinically proven to improve cognition and mood • What to do if you want to eat gluten again—or survive American wheat • How a fermented papaya concentrate could replace your acid reflux meds • Why optimizing your gut could extend your lifespan by 40% ***Get 20% off your next purchase by going to https://omnibioticlife.com/pages/dave-asprey/ or omnibioticlife.com/dave*** SPONSORS -Timeline | Head to https://www.timeline.com/dave to get 10% off your first order. -Zbiotics | Go to https://zbiotics.com/DAVE for 15% off your first order.

Scientists Just Discovered the Essential Nutrient That DOUBLES Dolphin Lifespan—But Should YOU Take It? | Stephanie Venn-Watson : 1256 1:18:05

hace 5 weeks1:18:05

For nearly a century, scientists believed we had discovered ALL of the essential fatty acids the human body needs. But what if they were wrong? Stephanie Venn-Watson, a veterinary epidemiologist and longevity researcher, joins Dave to reveal a groundbreaking discovery— a newly identified essential fatty acid, C15, that may hold the key to healthier aging and even longer lifespans. Originally uncovered in an unlikely place— U.S. Navy dolphins that were outliving their wild counterparts by decades —this forgotten fat is now shaking up the scientific community. So why hasn’t anyone told you about it?? Decades of misguided dietary advice stripped this crucial nutrient from our food system, leaving an entire generation unknowingly deficient. Even worse, pregnant women have been some of the MOST hurt from this cruel change to our modern diet. Now, cutting-edge research is proving that C15 plays a critical role in cellular stability, mitochondrial function, and total mental health. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • The first new essential fatty acid discovered in nearly 100 years—and why it matters • How dolphins led to one of the BIGGEST breakthroughs in human nutrition • Why the removal of C15 from our diets is accelerating aging • The surprising connection between C15 and mental health • How this “missing” fat could outperform some of the biggest longevity drugs today! • What foods naturally contain C15—and should you supplement it? *** Get 15$ off Fatty15 at www.fatty15.com with code: DAVE *** SPONSORS Puori | Visit https://puori.com/dave and use code DAVE for 20% off.
