All Things Skincare With Dr. Troy Jackson, M.D.

Summer Skincare Masterclass: Sunscreen, Retinoids, and Simple Routines with Dr. Troy Jackson Host Jason Wright and Dr. Troy Jackson discuss practical summer skincare focused on sun protection, simple routines, and long-term aging. Jackson explains intrinsic vs. extrinsic skin aging, emphasizing cumulative UV exposure as a primary driver and recommending daily sunscreen on face, ears, and neck, plus reapplication about every two hours (more often with chemical sunscreens or water exposure). He contrasts chemical sunscreens with mineral options like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, noting mineral products are commonly used for children. They address vitamin D concerns, tanning oils and beds, spray tans, and when to see a dermatologist using the “ugly duckling” mole concept. Jackson outlines a basic routine: gentle cleanser, moisturizer (avoiding fragrances/colorants), morning sunscreen, and nighttime retinoids/retinol with guidance on strength progression. They also cover diet, alcohol’s aging effects, collagen, antioxidants including vitamin C and glutathione, and lifestyle factors like exercise, sauna, recovery, and avoiding extremes. 00:00 Summer Skincare Kickoff 03:01 Why Sunscreen Matters 07:22 Chemical vs Mineral Sunscreens 09:50 Vitamin D vs Sun Protection 11:54 Where to Apply Sunscreen 17:41 Reapplying and Beach Basics 19:04 Tanning Oils and Beds 23:15 Skin Checks and Warning Signs 25:25 Kids Skincare and Social Media 29:43 Simple Routine and Retinoids 32:03 Retinoid Dermatitis Tips 33:16 Budget Skincare Basics 35:18 Gentle Cleansing Rules 38:09 Moisturizers and Irritants 40:59 Retinoids by Age 43:24 Collagen Facts and Food 46:36 Diet for Better Skin 48:42 Alcohol and Skin Aging 50:21 Glutathione Explained 53:18 Sweat Sauna and Recovery 55:30 Ozempic Face and Extremes 58:44 80 20 Health Mindset 01:00:52 Wrap Up and Resources Visit Authentic Health Clinic [https://authentichealth.com/blog/]

Dr. Will Haas on Cellular Health: Toxins, Testing, Foundational Supplements, and Peptides for Healthspan

Dr. Will Haas on Cellular Health: Toxins, Testing, Foundational Supplements, and Peptides for Healthspan Jason interviews Dr. Will Haas about why he chose integrative/functional medicine after realizing medical school focused on “sick care” rather than health optimization, a passion rooted in his youth and athletic background and influenced by mentor Andrew Weil’s view that it’s simply “good medicine.” Haas explains his clinical approach starts with lifestyle foundations (sleep, nutrition, stress, social connection) plus targeted diagnostics, listening for cellular dysfunction patterns like mitochondrial energy deficits that can present as brain fog or fatigue. He emphasizes toxins (including mold/mycotoxins), gut-driven inflammation/dysbiosis, and immune dysregulation as key disruptors, advocating “test, don’t guess” before interventions. They discuss practical basics like hydration, personalized nutrition, common supplementation deficiencies he sees (magnesium, vitamin D, B12/folate, vitamin C, omega-3s), and a cautious, mechanism-based view of peptides, highlighting GLP-1s’ early impact and epitalon’s potential role in optimization and circadian rhythm support. Haas shares his own routine and directs listeners to Vyve Wellness for a discovery call. 00:00 Chasing Performance Inputs 00:21 Why Integrative Medicine 01:28 Meet Dr Will Haas 02:40 Olympics Spark Origin Story 05:14 Healthcare Versus Sick Care 07:18 First Patient Assessment Basics 10:27 Cellular Patterns Not Labels 13:44 Brain Fog Wake Up Call 15:33 Toxins Gut And Mold 21:00 Test Before You Detox 23:16 Food Hydration Personalization 27:38 Dark Chocolate Heavy Metals 28:22 Fiber Goop Breakdown 31:24 Gut Health Reality Check 33:00 Avoiding Optimization Burnout 33:46 Supplements Need Data 36:07 Common Deficiencies Explained 39:16 Antioxidants Need Balance 40:35 Peptides Primer and Hype 42:08 Evidence Based Peptide Lens 44:50 GLP1s Sparked Interest 48:47 Peptides by Pathway Not Stacks 50:22 Epitalon and Circadian Reset 51:30 Older Patients and Root Causes 54:10 Doctor Daily Routine 57:05 Training Mindset and Stress 58:27 Wrap Up and How to Work Together 01:00:46 Sponsor Message and Disclaimer

Dylan Livingston, Founder Alliance For Longevity Initiatives on Longevity Policy, Right to Try, and Scaling the Longevity Dividend

Dylan Livingston on Longevity Policy, Right to Try, and Scaling the Longevity Dividend Jason Wright interviews Dylan Livingston, founder of the Alliance for Longevity Initiatives (A4LI), about advancing longevity through policy rather than products. Livingston traces his interest from discovering Aubrey de Grey as a teen to COVID-era experiences with his grandfather, which renewed his focus and led him to launch A4LI in 2022 as a coalition of longevity biotech companies. He describes passing a California resolution prioritizing longevity and healthy aging, framing the goal as achieving a “longevity dividend” worth trillions through reduced healthcare costs and increased productivity, and argues therapeutics can democratize longevity more than intensive lifestyle protocols. They discuss Right to Try, its limits under terminal-only access and liability concerns, and A4LI’s work expanding access in Montana and New Hampshire for Phase 1-safe therapies. Livingston highlights AI-driven acceleration in biotech, cellular reprogramming with Yamanaka factors, and previews A4LI’s Georgetown DC summit featuring major companies, researchers, policymakers, and a Capitol Hill briefing on US-China biotech competition. 00:00 Cold Open Banter 01:05 Why Longevity Policy 02:17 Dylan Origin Story 05:39 Launching The Alliance 08:24 Sponsor Message 09:18 California Policy Playbook 10:49 Longevity Dividend Explained 12:39 Therapeutics As Equalizer 13:44 Moral Case For Healthspan 17:48 Right To Try Primer 21:17 Fixing Right To Try 22:23 Biotech Valley Of Death 25:22 AI And Medical Gatekeeping 26:01 AI Health Coach Teaser 26:35 Plan Aware Health Coaching 27:31 Longevity Goals And Motivation 29:38 AI Accelerating Biotech 32:10 Cell Reprogramming Breakthroughs 34:32 Aging As Root Cause Policy 37:10 Wellness Mindset And Agency 40:15 Prevention Limits And Lifelong Care 44:33 DC Summit Agenda Preview 46:24 Hill Briefing And Biotech Race 49:20 Wrap Up And Medical Disclaimer

Game Changer! 30 Grams of Protein First Thing In The Morning

Get your essential amino acids HERE and use promo code JASON for 10% off [https://shopauthentichealth.com/] 30 Grams of Protein at Breakfast: The Simple Habit for Metabolism, Muscle, and Longevity In this Healthy CEO podcast episode, Jason argues that “winning the morning” includes strategically timing nutrition, especially getting at least 30 grams of protein at breakfast, to improve metabolism, body composition, energy, and aging. He challenges the assumption that skipping breakfast or only drinking coffee until noon is always healthier, noting research suggesting how you break a fast affects fat loss, muscle preservation, metabolic health, cognitive performance, and longevity. He explains protein’s benefits—higher thermic effect, better blood sugar stability, and greater satiety—and links muscle to healthy aging, citing age-related muscle loss and the role of mTOR and leucine (about 2.5–3 grams per meal). He gives breakfast protein examples and suggests essential amino acids as a practical option for intermittent fasters to support muscle without a full meal, recommending a one-week experiment. 00:00 Morning Protein Setup 01:02 30g Breakfast Challenge 01:44 Fasting and Metabolism 02:54 Why 30g Works 03:56 Muscle and mTOR 05:05 What 30g Looks Like 05:24 EAAs for Intermittent Fasters 06:57 Longevity and Weekly Experiment 08:10 Wrap Up and Disclaimer

Should You Supplement for NAD?

Supplements Aren’t the Answer: Exercise, Blood Work, and the NAD Hype Jason Wright, co-founder and CEO of Authentic Health Partners, explains why he gets frustrated when people ask what supplements to take before addressing basics like exercise, sleep, hydration, diet, stress, and relationships. Using questions about NAD (often via NR/NMN precursors or injections) as the catalyst, he says there’s no panacea and nothing will outperform movement, sunshine, and avoiding over-nourishment; he notes calorie restriction is strongly correlated with longevity in studies but not proven causal. He describes Huberman’s NAD use as anecdotal and cautions against copying a “one person study” without considering the full lifestyle context and overall cellular health. Wright recommends getting blood work, consulting a physician, doing research (including randomized controlled trials), and keeping supplementation simple; personally he takes his company’s foundational stack plus creatine and glutathione, and warns GLP-1 users about under-nourishing and losing muscle. 00:00 Why Supplements Trigger Me 01:52 Fix The Basics First 04:09 Longevity Talk Calorie Restriction 05:55 NAD Explained And The Hype 08:49 Huberman N Of One Reality 12:32 How I Answer NAD Questions 16:02 What I Actually Take Daily 17:28 Cell Health Car Engine Analogy 22:21 No Panacea Holistic Health 23:47 GLP 1 Caution And Muscle Loss 25:47 Do Your Homework Closing 27:42 Medical Disclaimer
