Mindsip insights from this episode:
Understand how glutathione supplements enhance body production
Older oral and IV glutathione supplements worked by breaking down into amino acids, which the body then used to reconstruct its own glutathione, rather than by direct absorption.
Test red blood cell levels for accurate glutathione measurement
To accurately measure your body's glutathione status, you should test your red blood cell (RBC) levels, as testing whole blood can be misleading due to the short life of glutathione in plasma.
Reduce omega-6 fats to enhance tanning and prevent sunburn
A diet high in omega-6 fats from seed oils may inhibit melanocytes, the cells responsible for tanning, making you more susceptible to sunburn.
Simplify skincare routine to prevent inflammation and irritation
The most common skincare mistake women make is overtreating their skin with too many products, which can cause inflammation and irritation.
Identify hidden toxins in skincare products
Some skincare products have been found to contain unexpected and toxic ingredients like BPA and even the metal tin.
Discover Fatty15 for enhanced longevity benefits
The supplement Fatty15, containing the fat C15, is claimed in studies to provide more longevity benefits than pharmaceuticals like rapamycin and metformin.
Understand shorter lifespan of men's facelifts due to collagen differences
Due to differences in collagen quality, a facelift result on a man will last about half as long as the same procedure on a woman of the same age.
Protect endothelial glycocalyx with Arterosil HP
You can protect the ultra-thin lining of your blood vessels, the endothelial glycocalyx, using a supplement called Arterosil HP.
Avoid aggressive laser treatments to prevent skin fragility
Aggressive ablative laser treatments, which create a 'controlled burn,' can lead to long-term skin fragility even if the initial results look good.
