Your Nervous System Has an Age and You Probably Don't Want to Know It - Episode 330
In this episode, Dr. Jeff Gladden walks through a live stress and nervous system assessment with Carlos, a 29-year-old patient who has survived five accidents including three serious ones. Dr. Gladden breaks down what heart rate variability actually measures, why your stress index reveals how fast you're aging, and what vagus nerve power means for longevity. He explains why all of life comes down to optimizing the nervous system, how stress is fundamentally a function of not feeling safe, and why no external achievement can ever create true safety. Dr. Gladden introduces the concept of the 300-year-old mind and explains how combining nervous system training with the right perception of the world creates durable, long-lasting results. He also covers why your body is like a rainforest ecosystem that demands balance over brute force, why most people only eat 16 foods when they should be eating 50, and why your daily salad might actually be sensitizing your immune system. Whether you try meditation and cardio at home or go deeper with genetic and biometric testing, this episode gives you a clear roadmap for mastering your nervous system.

The Invincible Brain: A Neurologist’s Guide to Never Aging - Episode 326
In this episode of the Gladden Longevity Podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Gladden and neurologist Dr. Majid Fotuhi discuss building an "Invincible Brain." Challenging the myth that cognitive decline is inevitable, Dr. Fotuhi outlines five pillars—exercise, sleep, nutrition, stress management, and brain training, proven to increase brain volume and neuroplasticity. The discussion highlights how racket sports and balance training activate the cerebellum to boost overall function and reduce Alzheimer's risk. By consistently challenging the nervous system, you can shift the aging paradigm, achieving mental sharpness and vitality well into your 80s and 90s. This is the blueprint for lifelong brain health. For Audience · Use code 'Podcast10' to get 10% OFF on any of our supplements at ! Takeaways · Cognitive decline is often driven by lifestyle factors. · Maintaining a healthy lifestyle can mitigate cognitive decline. · Physical activity, especially balance training, is crucial for brain health. · Aging should be viewed as an opportunity for growth, not decline. · Trauma and psychological health significantly impact cognitive function. · Neuroplasticity allows the brain to change and adapt throughout life. · Stress management techniques can improve brain function and resilience. · Mindset plays a critical role in how we perceive aging and health. · Engaging in new activities can enhance brain health and longevity. · Everyone has the potential to improve their cognitive abilities at any age.

The Truth About GLP-1s Your Doctor Won't Tell You - Episode 325

The Truth About GLP-1s Your Doctor Won't Tell You - Episode 325
In this episode of the Gladden Longevity Podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Gladden sits down in person with fitness and nutrition expert Autumn Calabrese to unpack the full truth about GLP-1 agonists. With millions of people jumping on semaglutide, tirzepatide, and soon retatrutide, the conversation most doctors aren't having is about what's actually happening inside the body while the scale goes down. Dr. Gladden breaks down how GLP-1s suppress hunger, slow metabolism, and trigger muscle wasting when used without proper diagnostics or a supporting protocol. He explains the critical differences between GLP-1s, GLP-2s, and GLP-3s, reveals why the ghrelin rebound causes most people to regain everything they lost, and shares the strategies he uses in his practice to help patients lose fat while protecting lean tissue. From the 5-day fasting mimicking diet to natural GLP-1 boosters like metabolic probiotics and calocurb, this episode lays out a smarter, more sustainable path to optimizing body composition. Whether you're considering a GLP-1, already on one, or looking for alternatives, this is the conversation that could change your entire approach.

Book a call with the Gladden Longevity team → Takeaways • Peptides are signaling partners, not substitutes for the work your body needs to do. • GLP-1s were designed for diabetics and metabolic syndrome, not casual weight loss. • GLP-1s decrease energy expenditure while GLP-3s (retatrutide) increase it. • Many GLP-1 users are losing muscle mass instead of fat without realizing it. • The ghrelin rebound after stopping a GLP-1 drives appetite higher than before while metabolism stays slower. • A fasting blood sugar and hemoglobin A1C alone are not enough to understand your metabolic health. • A two-hour glucose tolerance test with an insulin curve reveals insulin resistance most doctors completely miss. • The 5-day fasting mimicking diet resets ghrelin, taste buds, gut biome, and leptin sensitivity without destroying muscle. • You can boost your body's own natural GLP-1 production through the right probiotics and bitter receptor activation. • Weight gain is not always an appetite problem. Thyroid dysfunction, declining sex hormones, and missing micronutrients can all be the real driver. • Sex hormone optimization during perimenopause and andropause is critical for maintaining body composition. • Willpower never wins long term. Systems and environment design are what create durable results.

His journey led him to explore holistic approaches after observing disillusionment in traditional doctors. Red light therapy emerged as a significant tool in his practice, offering innovative health solutions. The design and proximity of red light beds are crucial for effective treatment outcomes. Different wavelengths of light have varying effects on the body, from skin rejuvenation to deeper tissue healing. Red light therapy can enhance ATP production and reduce oxidative stress. Integrating red light therapy with other treatments can improve metabolic health and energy levels. Obesity is a growing epidemic, and red light therapy can play a role in weight loss. The technology behind red light therapy is backed by numerous studies and evidence-based results. Patients experience significant improvements in health and well-being through these innovative therapies. Patients are increasingly seeking root cause solutions rather than just symptom management. Precision medicine offers real hope and tangible results for patients. Weight loss strategies must focus on detoxification and cellular health. Inflammation is a key factor in weight gain and insulin resistance. A systematic approach to health can yield better outcomes than isolated treatments. Body composition is a more important metric than weight alone. GLP-1 medications can have adverse effects on muscle and bone density. Fasting can be beneficial if done correctly, focusing on fat loss rather than muscle loss. Precision medicine requires a deep understanding of individual genetics and biology. A comprehensive approach to health includes monitoring thyroid function and metabolic rates.
