In this insightful episode, we dive deep into Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1)—the powerful compound released by the liver in response to human growth hormone (hGH). Often called the "workhorse" of hGH, IGF-1 is responsible for driving cellular growth, repair, and regeneration. You'll learn how IGF-1 functions in the body, why it's a top performance-enhancing drug in sports (and banned by WADA), and why oral IGF-1 supplements are ineffective. We cover the therapeutic uses of IGF-1, including its impact on insulin sensitivity, cardiovascular protection, muscle mass, and bone density. We explore modified forms like IGF-1 LR3, which offer longer half-lives for extended benefit. Finally, we caution listeners on the risks of misuse—including insulin resistance and potential cancer proliferation—highlighting the importance of medical supervision when considering IGF-1 therapies.

In this episode of Decoding Health, Dr. Anthony Chaffee challenges conventional nutrition wisdom, explaining why carbohydrates aren't actually essential for human health. We explore how various lifestyle factors damage the mitochondria and why mitochondrial health is crucial for longevity and disease prevention. Dr. Chaffee dives into how ketogenic diets can enhance mitochondrial function and even help combat autoimmune diseases through the carnivore diet. Finally, he highlights a surprising statistic: nearly a third of the population may be deficient in carnitine, an essential nutrient for energy metabolism and overall vitality. This conversation pushes against outdated dietary norms and opens the door to new possibilities for optimizing health through smarter nutrition choices.

Dr Anthony Chaffee is an American medical doctor currently practicing in Australia who, over a span of over 20 years, has researched the optimal nutrition for human performance and health. It is his assertion that most of the so-called chronic diseases we treat as doctors are caused by the food we eat, or don't eat, and can be reversed with dietary changes to a species specific diet.

In this Decoding Health episode, we break down the trending topic of methylene blue and its emerging role in biohacking for longevity and health optimization. Originally a fabric dye later adapted for medical use in tissue staining and treatments for cancer and neurological disorders, methylene blue is now being explored for its ability to enhance mitochondrial function, boost metabolism, and support cognitive performance through its redox properties. The episode stresses the importance of using pharmaceutical-grade, third-party-tested products due to contamination risks and highlights that oral use is considered off-label. Practical tips are shared, like diluting methylene blue with lemon juice to prevent mouth staining, while also noting side effects like blue or green urine. Listeners are encouraged to do their own research, start slowly, and consult a healthcare provider if considering use, as biohacking responsibly is the key to maximizing benefits without unnecessary risks.
