What's The Blood Of Very Healthy Old People Look Like?, Time-Hacking Exercise, The Best Way To "Filter Your Blood" & More—Q&A 485

Full Show Notes: bengreenfieldlife.com/fmt

In this episode, you'll get to uncover one of the most intriguing developments in gut health—fecal microbiota transplants (FMTs). Joining me is Jason Klop, CEO of Novel Biome, who brings cutting-edge insight into how FMT is transforming from an obscure, hospital-based procedure into an accessible, precise, and surprisingly simple tool for optimizing your microbiome at home.

We’ll break down how FMT is now being used for everything from irritable bowel issues to food sensitivities, and why the technology has advanced well beyond its origins. You'll also hear about the meticulous screening behind “super donors,” the science of oral FMT capsules, and the real-world results you can expect—including my own personal experience. Whether you’re looking to boost your gut health, support your immune system, or simply curious about the connection between your microbiome and overall vitality, this episode has what you need to stay on the cutting edge of holistic wellness.

Jason Klop brings a clinical background in naturopathic medicine to his role as founder and CEO of Novel Biome, Canada's first licensed manufacturer of Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) products. Having personally treated hundreds of patients with FMT in clinical practice, Jason saw a gap in the availability of safe, standardized microbiome restoration therapies and set out to build the infrastructure himself. Today, Novel Biome supplies FMT products to clinics, hospitals, and clinical trials around the world.

Are “Poop Pills” The Ultimate Bowel Biohack Of The Future? The Science of Fecal Microbiota Transplants (FMT) with Jason Klop.

Full Show Notes: bengreenfieldlife.com/magteinpodcast

In this episode with neuroscientist Dr. Guosong Liu, you’ll explore his accidental discovery at MIT's Center for Learning and Memory that led him down a two-decade journey into brain magnesium, synaptic plasticity, and cognitive decline. That research ultimately resulted in the invention of Magtein® (magnesium L-threonate), a compound he engineered to cross the blood-brain barrier in a way other magnesium forms cannot, with clinical trials showing a reversal of nine years of cognitive decline, measurable shifts in sleep architecture, stress reduction in as little as three days, and meaningful improvements in prefrontal cortex function at just 140 milligrams per day. Dr. Liu also shares what his current Alzheimer's prevention research looks like.

Dr. Liu is a world-renowned neuroscientist whose pioneering research on brain magnesium has transformed our understanding of cognitive function and synaptic plasticity. With more than 25 years of neuroscience expertise, he previously served on the faculty at MIT's Picower Institute for Learning and Memory, founded the Center for Learning and Memory at Tsinghua University, and earned his Ph.D. in Neurophysiology from UCLA. His translational research has bridged laboratory discovery and human clinical application, resulting in multiple trials demonstrating Magtein's efficacy in supporting cognitive performance.

Magtein is the patented, clinically studied form of magnesium L-threonate designed to cross the blood-brain barrier and support memory, focus, mood, sleep quality, and stress resilience. Featured in more than 400 products across 40-plus countries, it is the global standard in brain-support magnesium nutrition.

Can the RIGHT Form of Magnesium REALLY Boost Brain Performance, Reverse Cognitive Decline & Protect Against Alzheimer's? with Dr. Guosong Liu

Full Show Notes: bengreenfieldlife.com/ways2well

In this episode, I sit down with Brigham Buhler at Ways2Well in Austin, Texas, exposing the "sick care" maze, including insurance company middlemen, skyrocketing drug prices, and the rebate system nobody talks about. This is what optimizing your health actually looks like: not managing disease, not waiting for a diagnosis, but getting inside the lab and taking control.

Brigham Buhler is a healthcare entrepreneur, founder of Ways2Well, and owner of ReviveRX. He spent years inside the systems he now fights against, working across pharmaceutical sales and sports medicine before building a cash-pay alternative to the insurance model. 

Ways2Well is a clinician-led health company built around continuous, personalized care. They combine advanced diagnostics, expert interpretation, individualized treatment plans, and regenerative therapies to help patients understand what's actually happening in their bodies, rather than solely treating symptoms.
