Ever wondered why sleep is so vital to our overall health? This episode will take you on a mesmerizing journey through the world of sleep studies, supplements, and techniques to maximize rest, based on our personal experiences and the latest scientific research. We also delve deep into the hot topic of longevity, sharing fascinating insights on metformin and its potential effects on lifespan, along with lifestyle strategies that can help you age well.

Navigating through time zones can wreak havoc on our sleep patterns. Listen to our experiences and how we managed to maintain our sleep routine despite the challenges. We discuss the role of melatonin as a sleep aid but warn against the dangers of dependency. Discover the importance of natural sleep enhancement, and why a consistent sleep routine is key to better sleep and overall well-being. You'll also find out why magnesium baths are a game-changer and the negative impacts of alcohol and late-night eating on sleep.

Embark on an intriguing exploration of longevity research with us. Did you know that people with type 2 diabetes taking metformin lived longer than those who didn't? However, it’s not all sunshine and roses. We discuss potential drawbacks and the importance of balance in life. Hear the heated debate on testosterone replacement and its impact on longevity. We talk about our collaboration with Illinois Alternative Medicine, offering consultations and bloodwork to assess hormone levels and improve overall health. Better sleep, longer life, we're unpacking it all! Tune in now for an unforgettable journey through health and longevity.
