187. Wade Lightheart & Matt Gallant: Enzyme Fasting, Magnesium Science, NAD & Brain Training
What if everything you think you know about supplementation is backwards, and the real secret lies in the enzymatic processes that bodybuilders discovered decades ago? I sit down with Wade Lightheart and Matt Gallant from BiOptimizers who blow my mind with their lab research shows 1200% more amino acid absorption when you combine the right enzymes with protein, why magnesium deficiency is literally rewiring your stress response, and how fixing gut dysfunction - which I've seen in every single anxiety patient among my 160,000 cases - transforms everything from brain fog to systemic inflammation.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
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.
