Want to know how to regenerate your organs? Sound crazy? Well, not so fast. A new revolution in healthcare is taking place. It's the understanding that short-chained peptides like the ones found in organ meats are recognized by the body as highly specific gene switches.
These tiny peptides can pass through cell membranes without a receptor, latch onto the DNA, and signal protein synthesis that leads to the repair of the specific organ being treated.
These gene switches are called Peptide Bioregulators.
A secret once kept by the Soviet military now stands at the frontier of modern medicine. Join me for a riveting discussion with my guest, Phil Micans, an authority on bio-regulating peptides, as we unpack the potential of these short chains of amino acids to revolutionize health and longevity. Grasp the essence of these gene switches, trace their fascinating journey, and understand how they are transforming the medical landscape.
If you are ready to try Bioregulators for yourself, I recommend you head over to Profound-Health.com and save 15% with code: MCCAIN-HF-15

In this episode of Stephen McCain podcast, I interview Jin-Xiong She, founder & CEO of Jinfiniti Precision Medicine, which develops and markets Longevity tests to help people maximize their healthspan.
We discuss the importance of optimizing NAD. NAD is a vital coenzyme involved in numerous biochemical processes in the body. It plays a crucial role in energy metabolism, DNA repair, and cellular regeneration. By increasing NAD+ levels, our bodies can more effectively repair damaged cells, improve cognitive function, and enhance energy levels.
NAD supplements have become very popular in the last couple of years. However, we should strive to test and optimize the dose of our supplements to truly get the proven benefits of NAD.
By the end of the episode, you will know how to easily test your NAD levels in the comfort of your own home. How to interpret the test results. And, learn about a product that has been proven to optimize NAD levels in 90% of the people using it.
