In this episode with Alex Tarnava, you'll get to dive into the fascinating world of molecular hydrogen and its powerful health benefits. Alex shares his personal journey from battling arthritis to discovering hydrogen's potential for gut repair and overall well-being. You'll also explore how hydrogen works as a mitohormetic agent, boosts mitochondrial health, and upregulates your body's antioxidant defenses. Alex also breaks down cutting-edge research, reveals the science behind hydrogen tablets, shares insights on dosing, and much more!

Alex Tarnava, the inventor of the molecular hydrogen tablet, leads the clinical and preclinical outreach programs for its development and research. He has published a significant number of papers on the subject through peer review, including numerous papers coauthored with my friend and former podcast guest, Dr. Tyler LeBaron (who I interviewed in the episode "The 30-Year-Old Scientist Phenom Who Runs a 2:30 Marathon, Deadlifts 420 Pounds & Drinks Hydrogen Enriched Water").

Alex places a great deal of emphasis on why dose and concentration are important for hydrogen tablet use. He was even invited to present at the 1st Annual European Conference for Hydrogen in Biomedicine. His presentation on dosing conversions from translational to clinical research, and the discrepancies between successful rodent studies and human studies, was selected to be included in the course material for the pharmaceutical program at a university in Slovakia.

Tune in to explore how embracing hydrogen could transform your well-being and support your journey toward a healthier, more vibrant life!

The ULTIMATE Travel Workout Routine, Microdosing GLP-1, Increasing Libido *Without* Testosterone Replacement Therapy & More! Solosode #481

Carbon dioxide therapy has become a highly debated and often misunderstood topic.

Is elevated CO2 beneficial, or could it pose risks? What exactly are the advantages of CO2 therapy, and how might it impact your health?

In this episode, you’ll get to explore the transformative power of breathing with breathwork expert Anders Olsson. From the benefits of food-grade CO2 cylinders to advanced breathing techniques that can boost both mental and physical well-being, Anders shares invaluable insights. As the author of Conscious Breathing: Discover The Power Of Your Breath and creator of tools like the Relaxator and CarboHaler, he guides you through the profound impact breathwork has on emotions and stress management. You’ll uncover the fascinating relationship between CO2 and oxygen delivery, the role of nitric oxide in respiratory health, and how specific breathing patterns can dramatically reduce stress and elevate overall health. Plus, you’ll gain practical advice and discover cutting-edge research to enhance your daily breathwork practice.

Anders Olsson is a breath coach, author, keynote speaker, inventor, and founder of the Conscious Breathing Institute. Anders joins me on the podcast to bring clarity to the benefits, potential concerns, and safe applications of CO₂ therapy. After living most of his life with a high inner stress and a racing mind, Anders was fortunate enough to come across tools that have helped him relax and find his inner calm. The most powerful of these tools has undoubtedly been to change his breathing habits, which made Anders decide to become the world’s most prominent expert in breathing.

That was 15 years ago, and since then, he has inspired hundreds of thousands of people to achieve better health and an improved quality of life. Anders is the author of the best-selling book Conscious Breathing: Discover The Power of Your Breath and the co-inventor of the Relaxator, Sleep Tape, CarboHaler, and BodyStream CO2 Bath.

He is considered an authority on CO2 therapy and coaches high-level executives and elite athletes. In 2018, Anders facilitated and participated in a groundbreaking three-week breathing study at Stanford, highlighted in James Nestor's book Breath.

Tune in and breathe easy as we unpack the science and art of effective breathing to help you reduce stress, boost energy, and enhance your overall well-being.
