Your skin is screaming what your blood work is whispering. Dr. Shawana Vali transformed how I understand the visible signs of internal dysfunction, & it’s not what the beauty industry wants you to hear. Those wrinkles, breakouts, & pigmentation issues?

Ready to look 5 years younger by treating the root cause instead of chasing symptoms?

Dr. Will Cole and Dr. Tara Swart Bieber join me at The Wellness Oasis during Miami Art Week to reveal why low-level chronic stress destroys longevity faster than anything else, how that COMT gene mutation in half this audience keeps your mind racing when your body needs rest, and why I schedule my entire life around sleep and exercise instead of fitting wellness into leftover time slots.

1 hr 29 min - 236. What Is Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and How Do You Improve It?
Note: This episode was originally recorded and first released on June 27, 2024. We’re resurfacing it because the conversation is more relevant than ever, and the insights remain as timely today as they were when first published.
Your heart doesn’t beat like a metronome, and that variability between beats reveals everything about your body’s ability to handle modern stress. I get tons of questions about HRV, and here’s what you need to understand: HRV measures the balance between your sympathetic nervous system (fight-or-flight) and parasympathetic nervous system (rest-digest), and research published in Frontiers in Neuroscience shows it’s a powerful non-invasive biomarker linked to mental and physical health.CLICK HERE TO BECOME GARYS VIP!: https://bit.ly/4ai0Xwg

1 hr 36 min - 232. Gary Brecka Live at the Biohacking 360 Conference 2025 in Romania
Gary Brecka takes the stage at the Biohacking 360 Summit in Romania to challenge modern medical dogmas and reveal how the body can heal itself when given the right raw materials. Drawing from 22 years of mortality research, Brecka explains that the vast majority of human ailments, from ADHD and depression to hypertension, stem from nutrient deficiencies and a lack of oxygen, not genetically inherited diseases.

1 hr 20 min - 233. Anders Corbett: On “Crafting” Your Gut Microbiome, Probiotics, Leaky Gut & Hormone Optimization
The woman who lived to 118 years old had one remarkable characteristic that scientists couldn’t ignore; her gut microbiome resembled that of a 35-year-old. I’m here today with Anders Corbett, CEO of Craft Microbiome, unpacking the science of banking your young bacteria before age-related decline sets in, and how specific bacterial strains are now being correlated to neurodegenerative diseases years before symptoms appear. Your genetic predisposition to Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s may not be your destiny at all.

1 hr 27 min - 234. How To Improve Your Sleep With These Sleep Hygiene Tips
SNOOZE - Let's Get to Sleep!: https://bit.ly/4pt1T6V
You can’t supplement or exercise your way around poor sleep, and the damage accumulates faster than most people realise. A landmark Harvard study showed healthy young men developed pre-diabetic metabolic markers after just one week of restricted sleep, while a 25-year investigation of nearly 8,000 people linked chronic short sleep in midlife to a 30% increased dementia risk decades later. What would change if you treated sleep as the foundation of optimisation rather than the obstacle to productivity?

About The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
From the publisher's feed
Gary Brecka is a Human Biologist, biohacker, researcher, and an anti-aging and longevity expert. His approach to health is simple: "Aging is the aggressive pursuit of comfort."
For over 20 years, he worked in the life insurance industry predicting mortality. This meant if he got 5 years of medical records and 5 years of demographic data on you, the team that he was associated with could tell a life insurance company how long you had to live to the month. After years and years of doing this type of research and analysis, he decided he wanted to spend the balance of his lifetime helping people live happier, healthier, longer, more fulfilling lives.
With this mission in mind, he created The Ultimate Human podcast. In this weekly podcast, Gary has exciting conversations with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and scientists and is thrilled to share their transformative insights with you. What's keeping you from being an ultimate human? Tune in to find out.
