18 Longevity Secrets to Live a Healthy 100 Years

Dr. Eric Berg DCDr. Eric Berg (host)

Dr. Eric Berg presents 18 tips for longevity that mix public-health history, lifestyle advice (fasting, exercise, sleep, fermented foods), and specific biomarker targets (fasting insulin, vitamin D). The video emphasizes creating health and fitness reserve rather than only managing disease and draws lessons from Japan and Hong Kong. Many practical points align with mainstream evidence, but several specific numeric targets and causal claims are exaggerated or contested.

Fasting as a Path to Longevity: The Facts | Lifespan with Dr. David Sinclair - Season 2, Episode 2

David SinclairDavid Sinclair (host/guest; professor and longevity researcher); Andrew (producer/visuals); references to colleagues (David Reich, Rafael de Cabo, Rozalyn Anderson) and several partners (Ketone IQ, Whoop, Wings).

David Sinclair argues that eating less often — through fasting or calorie restriction (CR) — activates conserved cellular pathways that slow biological aging. Animal studies show strong lifespan effects; human trials (including the CALERIE study) report modest slowing of molecular aging and improved metabolic health, while new research implicates gut-derived bile acids in mediating some CR benefits.

Editing Your DNA, with Nobel Prize Winner Dr. Jennifer Doudna

Cleo AbramCleo Abram (host) — Jennifer Doudna (guest, Nobel Prize winner, CRISPR co-discoverer)

Jennifer Doudna (Nobel Prize winner) explains how CRISPR-Cas9 — an RNA-guided, programmable genome editor discovered from bacterial immune systems — made gene editing fast, cheap and widely accessible. The conversation covers real clinical successes (notably sickle cell treatments), technical limits (delivery, safety), ethical fault lines (germline editing vs somatic therapy), agricultural and environmental uses, and the social questions about access and enhancement.

5 Nutrition EXPERTS: The SHOCKING Healthy Foods That are Making You Fat (Food Lies HIDDEN From Us!)

Jay Shetty PodcastHost: Jay Shetty; Guests/experts featured (clips): Dr. Casey Means, Dr. Mark Hyman (mentioned), Jessie Inchauspé (Glucose Goddess), Alyssa Goodman (holistic nutrition/cleanse expert), Dave Asprey, Dr. Peter Attia (referenced)

This episode compiles advice from several nutrition and longevity experts about how simple lab markers, meal habits, and selective supplements can improve daily energy and long-term metabolic health. Guests stress getting basic biomarker data, favoring protein and vegetables (especially at breakfast and eaten first), slowing eating pace, and choosing whole-food-based supplements while avoiding processed “health” foods marketed to mislead.

60 Minutes of Nutrition Advice Every Woman Should Know | Nutrition Expert

Dr Faye BateHost (Her Discussions) and guest Dr Fede (head nutritionist at ZOE)

Nutritionist Dr Fede (ZOE) discusses practical, evidence‑based guidance for everyday eating: the UK’s large shortfall in dietary fiber; the value of plant diversity, whole foods, and fermented products; why sugar‑sweetened sodas are harmful; and why widespread protein supplementation is usually unnecessary. She also covers child feeding strategies, time‑restricted eating, and simple, quick meals for busy people.

Fitness Fixes Everything (and its simple) @higherupwellness

Kassidy WarrenGuest: Kassidy Warren; Host/interviewer: Michael Smoke

A long interview with fitness creator Kassidy Warren reframes exercise as non-negotiable hygiene and prescribes a simple, sustainable program: resistance training (three full-body sessions/week), daily walking, adequate protein, and a calorie deficit for fat loss. Warren emphasises compliance over complexity, the psychological and spiritual benefits of getting healthy, and shares a viral ‘Higher Up Wellness’ public-speaking challenge as a practical catalyst for change.

The Most Honest Man In Nutrition Research | Kevin Hall PhD

Doctor MikeHost: Doctor Mike; Guest: Kevin Hall, PhD

Kevin Hall, a prominent NIH metabolism researcher, discusses decades of tightly controlled human feeding studies that challenge simple claims about 'low‑carb metabolic advantage' and probe why ultra‑processed foods promote overeating. He also describes growing interference with scientific communications at NIH and his decision to retire early, arguing appetite and food environments — not a single hormone — largely explain obesity trends.

Peptides: The Science, Uses & Safety | Dr. Abud Bakri

Andrew HubermanAndrew Huberman (host); Dr. Abud Bakri (guest, internal medicine physician)

This Huberman Lab episode features Dr. Abud Bakri explaining how to think about peptides — dividing them by whether they act via known receptors (e.g., GLP‑1 drugs) or unclear mechanisms (e.g., BPC‑157) — and reviewing evidence, safety, and market issues. The conversation surveys animal vs human evidence for regenerative peptides, thymus/pineal peptides used in Russia, aesthetic peptides (GHK‑Cu), growth‑hormone secretagogues, and the legal/quality risks of compounded and gray‑market products.

Understanding & Controlling Aggression | Huberman Lab Essentials

Andrew HubermanAndrew Huberman (host/author)

Andrew Huberman explains aggression as a process driven by specific neural circuits, hormones, and contextual factors rather than a single emotion like sadness. He reviews rodent and human evidence for a key hypothalamic circuit (ventromedial hypothalamus), the role of estrogen (including aromatized testosterone), modulators such as cortisol/serotonin and daylength, and practical interventions to lower aggressive tendencies.

Eating for Better Sleep & Foods that Improve Metabolic Health | Dr. Marie-Pierre St-Onge

Andrew HubermanHost: Andrew Huberman; Guest: Dr. Marie‑Pierre St‑Onge (nutrition researcher, Columbia University)

Dr. Marie-Pierre St-Onge discusses bidirectional links between sleep and nutrition: how even modest sleep loss changes appetite hormones, brain reward responses, activity and metabolism, and how meal composition and timing (fiber, saturated fat, refined carbs, earlier eating) alter sleep architecture and metabolic health. The talk mixes controlled lab trials and cohort findings and offers practical, evidence-informed steps to improve both sleep and metabolic outcomes.

Essentials: Sleep Toolkit for Optimizing Sleep & Sleep-Wake Timing

Andrew HubermanAndrew Huberman (host); referenced guest: Dr. Matthew Walker

Andrew Huberman summarizes science-based, actionable tools to optimize sleep by manipulating light, temperature, timing of food/caffeine/exercise, and selective supplements. The episode emphasizes morning sunlight exposure to set circadian timing, midday choices that prevent clock disruption, and evening behaviors (dim light, cool bedroom, timed baths) that promote deep sleep.

ADHD & How Anyone Can Improve Their Focus

Andrew HubermanAndrew Huberman (host) — summarizing literature & clinical perspectives; quotes from pediatric neurologist colleague (anecdotal).

Andrew Huberman (Stanford neurobiology professor) surveys ADHD — its symptoms, neurobiology (dopamine, default-mode vs task networks), treatments (stimulant drugs, Modafinil, diet, supplements, TMS) and behavioral tools (blink/gaze training, short interoceptive practice) that can improve attention in people with and without ADHD. He emphasizes that some approaches mediate versus modulate circuits, and warns about smartphone-driven attention erosion.
