Episode description

Welcome to a special Upgrade Spotlight Edition, where I introduce you to someone who's genuinely changing the game. Our carefully selected guest today is a renowned pharmacist, an author, and a pioneer in biohacking for skin longevity: Dr. Nayan Patel. 

Dr. Patel is a trailblazer in the world of antioxidants, specifically glutathione. If you've been following biohacking or are a regular listener, you know that glutathione is a key antioxidant with vital functions, including skin health. Dr. Patel's expertise in absorbable glutathione and anti-aging sciences is unparalleled.

Dr. Patel holds a unique patent for transdermal glutathione delivery, a groundbreaking method of introducing this crucial antioxidant directly through your skin with his company Auro Wellness. His book, The Glutathione Revolution, dives deep into this topic. 

In this episode, we delve into why glutathione is essential for skin longevity. Dr. Patel shares insights on his innovative formula and technology for absorption at Auro Wellness, which has shown promising results in reducing fine lines, cellulite, and even promoting hair growth. 

As someone who champions scientifically-backed products and real results, I'm excited to discuss how Dr. Patel's work is a true game changer. I know the power of glutathione. I've been using it for nearly two decades, especially during my battle with toxic mold exposure. 

And now, thanks to innovators like Dr. Patel, we're moving from intravenous methods to transdermal applications—it's truly revolutionary. For those eager to try, visit aurowellness.com and use code DAVE10 for a discount.

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Combine cycloastragenol and glutathione for rapid anti-aging results

Combining the telomere-lengthening compound cycloastragenol with glutathione creates an exponentially more powerful anti-aging effect on the skin, with visible results in as little as one week.

Leverage topical Vitamin C to boost skin's glutathione

The antioxidant benefit of topical Vitamin C comes from its ability to regenerate your skin's own glutathione, not from the Vitamin C itself.

Understand oral glutathione absorption for effective use

Oral glutathione doesn't absorb directly but breaks down into amino acids that your body uses to reconstruct it, a process that can be inefficient for some people.

Measure glutathione in red blood cells for accurate assessment

Measuring glutathione in red blood cells (RBC) provides a more accurate reading of your body's levels than a standard whole blood test, which is skewed by glutathione's short half-life in plasma.

Experience odor-free glutathione with new transdermal spray

A new transdermal glutathione technology from Auro Wellness uses a chemical cap on the sulfur molecule to prevent the typical rotten egg smell after absorption.

Utilize modern transdermal technology for targeted ingredient delivery

Modern transdermal technology can be engineered to either keep active ingredients localized to the skin for targeted benefits or deliver them systemically throughout the body.

Experience rapid skincare benefits with mature skin

People with older, more nutrient-deprived skin (e.g., 50+) often see more dramatic and faster visible benefits from advanced skincare than younger people.

Apply transdermal glutathione to reduce cellulite

Applying transdermal glutathione to areas like the thighs can help reduce cellulite over time, likely by supporting liver detoxification and improving skin tautness.

Utilize transdermal sprays to boost glutathione levels effectively

Modern transdermal sprays can raise glutathione levels as effectively as, or even better than, expensive IV infusions without the need for a needle.
