  • The daily step count that cuts inflammation in half | Prof. Janet Lord

    The daily step count that cuts inflammation in half | Prof. Janet Lord
    Jun 19 2025
    What if the fatigue, stiffness, and brain fog we blame on aging are actually symptoms of something we can change? In this episode, immune aging expert Professor Janet Lord unpacks “inflammaging” - a slow, chronic form of inflammation that quietly builds in the body as we get older. It’s now believed to drive many of the diseases we associate with aging, from dementia to heart disease. Janet reveals how this invisible inflammation takes hold, how it silently damages the brain, gut, and immune system - and what science says we can do to fight back. Her research has shown that even in your 70s, it's not too late to reverse immune aging. One small change tomorrow could make a measurable difference. Professor Janet Lord is a world leading expert in the biology of aging. She’s published over 200 scientific papers and advised UK health policy. Her groundbreaking work shows how daily habits - especially movement - can reshape the immune system and slow the effects of time. If you want to stay stronger, sharper, and healthier for longer, this conversation could change the way you think about aging. 🥑 Make smarter food choices.

  • The 3 biggest myths about anti-aging skincare | Prof. John McGrath

    The 3 biggest myths about anti-aging skincare | Prof. John McGrath
    Jun 12 2025
    From collagen powders to $100 creams, the skincare industry thrives on promises. However, many of the products we rely on for younger, healthier skin are built on shaky evidence. In this episode, world-renowned dermatologist Professor John McGrath breaks down what’s real and what’s not. We explore how skin truly ages, what happens beneath the surface, and why some popular treatments don’t do what they claim. John dismantles three of the biggest myths in skincare, including the truth about SPF, collagen, and “bio-active” ingredients that never make it past the top layer of your skin. Professor McGrath is a Professor of Molecular Dermatology at King’s College London and editor of the British Journal of Dermatology. His research has transformed how we understand genetic skin disorders and vitamin D’s role in skin health. This conversation is packed with surprising insights - and one daily step that really does support healthier skin as you age. 🥑 Make smarter food choices.
