Ageless and Timeless Podcast®

Tracy Wood is a serial entrepreneur and healthcare innovator who currently serves as CEO of The DNA Company –US. Over the course of her career, she has launched and scaled several ventures spanning telecommunications, healthcare technology, telemedicine, and functional wellness. Tracy initially built her career in telecom, becoming a top-producing national Major Account Manager and Presidents Club recipient before pivoting into healthcare after personal family tragedies exposed critical failures within themedical system. Those experiences ultimately led her to pursue solutions that could transform how patients access care and how diseases are prevented rather than simply treated.

In this episode of Ageless and Timeless, Tracy joins host Michele Hughes to discuss the rapidly evolving field of functional genomics and precision health. As CEO of The DNA Company, Tracy explains how genomic data can reveal how individuals uniquely process nutrients, detoxify toxins, regulate inflammation, and age at the cellularlevel. Rather than offering generic health advice, genomic insights allow practitioners to tailor nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle interventions to each individual’s biology.

The conversation explores how the company is building a comprehensive ecosystem around personalized health, including genomic testing, practitioner education, virtual clinics, and concierge care models designed to help people move from reactive healthcare to proactive wellness. Tracy also shares how the company’s growing media platform—through initiatives like He Summits and She Summits—aims to make advanced health and longevity knowledge accessible to a wider global audience.

Throughout the discussion, Tracy emphasizes that the future of healthcare will be driven by data-guided prevention. By understanding how genetic pathways influence everything from metabolism and hormone balance to inflammation and detoxification, individuals can take targeted steps to optimize healthspan and potentially reduce their risk of chronic disease.

Dr. Jeffrey Gross, MD is a spine fellowship-trained, board-certified neurological surgeon with more than two decades of experience treating complex disorders of the spine, brain, and nervous system. He earned his medical degree from the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences and completed his residency in neurological surgery at University of California, Irvine Medical Center, followed by a fellowship in spinal biomechanics at the University of New Mexico Schoolof Medicine. Dr. Gross provides comprehensive evaluations to identify the root causes of persistent pain and injuries —often going beyond conventional approaches —and is known for his commitment to conservative, non-surgical options when possible, resorting to minimally invasive surgical treatments only when appropriate. He frequently offers second opinions for patients considering or having had prior surgery and treats a range of complex spinal conditions at practices in Newport Beach, California, and Henderson, Nevada. In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Gross has authored numerous peer-reviewed publications and book chapters and is a fellow of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons and member of the North American Spine Society.

In this episode, Michele and Dr. Gross dive deep into the evolution of regenerative medicine —from traditional stem cell therapy to the more advanced use of extracellular vesicles (exosomes) and tissue-specific signaling. They discuss why inflammation is a central driver of aging and degenerative disease, how exosomes differ from stem cells, and why delivery method matters —especially for brain health and musculoskeletal repair. Dr. Gross explains his European-guided protocol of bone-edge injections for joint regeneration, why certain procedures cause unnecessary inflammation, and how peptides such as BPC-157, TB-500, mitochondrial peptides, and telomere-supporting compounds are strategically stacked for optimal results. The conversation also explores emerging innovations like Muse stem cells, tissue-specific exosomes for hair restoration, AI in diagnostic medicine, and how patients can take control of their health through movement, sleep hygiene, fasting, and targeted peptide support.

In this episode of Ageless & Timeless, host Michele Hughes sits down with Jason Pencek, a Nurse Practitioner and Chiropractor specializing in longevity and regenerative medicine. Jason shares his unconventional journey from registered nursing to chiropractic care and advanced clinical practice, driven by early frustrations with the limitations of conventional healthcare. Today, through his work at NutrIV Therapies in the Chicagoland area, Jason blends functional medicine with cutting-edge therapies—including IV nutrition, bio-identical hormones, peptides, and regenerative injections—to help patients extend both lifespan and healthspan.

Drawing from years of clinical experience and global medical conferences, the conversation explores why peptides have becomeone of the most talked-about tools in modern longevity medicine. Jason explains how peptides moved from a niche, misunderstood therapy to a mainstream topic—largely accelerated by the rise of GLP-1 medications—and why education and proper medical oversight are essential. Michele and Jason discuss the risks of the current “Wild West” environment, where peptides are often sold online without guidance, and emphasize the importance of working with qualified providers and reputable compounding pharmacies.

The episode goes deep into practical application: how to think about foundational longevity strategies, why hormones and growth-hormone–supporting peptides often come first, and how immune health, recovery, and metabolic health fit into a long-term plan. Jason also addresses common concerns around muscle loss with GLP-1s, the differences between injectable, oral, and liposomal delivery methods, and how to prioritize protocols based on individual goals, budget, and physiology. The discussion widens to the future of longevity medicine, touching on AI, education gaps, access to care, and why lifestyle fundamentals—nutrition, sleep, movement, stress management, and connection—remain critical alongside advanced therapies.

Jason is offering a discounted new-patient consultationfor listeners of Ageless & Timelesswith coupon code “Ageless20”, which reduces the initial consultation fee from $350 to $200for new patients when they reference the code with his staff.
