Thanks for having me on your show, Dhru. The supplement industry is a minefield unfortunately.
Can’t beat diet, exercise, and sleep 😀
Outstanding interview. Appreciate the candor and substantiations provided.
Exercise, sprints, weights, stretching, prioritize sleep, clean whole foods organic diet no alcohol or prossessed foods, it works ! Im 60 and in better shape than most 30 year olds ! I Mountain Climb, 12,000 foot mountains with 45-60 lbs packs.
UA-cam rec one of Dr. Stanfield’s videos recently and I am a new fan. I love that he isn’t afraid to stand up to these big giants in the health and wellness community who are frauds and deceitful. He’s a bad ass in my opinion!
Hi Dhru, please can you start doing time-stamps. I don't have time to listen on one go. What i love is dipping into a few time-stamps and only then,later listening to the whole 9 yards? Ta.
true story... somebody please do a breakdown... too long to listen to all of it...
3 and a half day fast..raised my cortisol through the roof..havent had good sleep ever since..massive headaches ..heart rate 107 bpm..

Thank you, for sharing👏
The things that will help the most are taurine, alpha keto-glutarate, glycine and cysteine/NAC, and of course fasting. They will probably only have a much more modest effect in humans than mice as far as the actual increase in years go. Maybe 1/10 as much but that is still significant and could add up to years of lifespan and importantly, the animals seem to also look and behave much younger. Some benefits of occasional extended fasting and lowering carbs in the diet: High blood pressure is lowered to normal levels very quickly while fasting. Fibrosis/scarring is reversed over time, including in the heart and lungs.
Vitamin D plasma levels are increased as fasting improves metabolic health, and vitamin D in turn increases autophagy. When insulin is high, vit D stays locked in the blood cells.
Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion plaques, growths and pathogens by the immune system. This will also remove spikes quicker, whether natural or unnatural in origin!
Your body recycles up to 1/3 of all immune bodies in a 72h fast, rejuvenating your entire immune system. This helps prevent the onset of new autoimmune conditions, which develop through a leaky gut and damaged immune system.
Blood sugar and insulin are lowered when fasting, reducing inflammation and allowing the immune bodies to move freely through the body.
Fasts from 36-96 h increase metabolic rate due to norepinephrine release!
Blood clotting is lessened and clots and plaques are removed over time.
Fasting restores your circadian rhythm to normal over time.
T cells and T reg cells are vital in fighting cancer, autoimmune disease and infections but as we age the thymus stops making as many of them. Fasting releases stem cells, which then can become new T cells. It also releases growth hormone, which regenerates the thymus itself!
Fasting restores NAD+ and increases nitric oxide release to open blood vessels.
Reflexes and short term memory are increased.
Fasting increases anti-aging Yamanaka factors and increases average telomere length in stem cell pools.
Fasting can help with MS, Depression, BPD, Autism and seizures.
The hunger hormone ghrelin also lowers with extended fasting and rises from dieting.
What breaks a fast? Anything with protein or carbohydrates in it will break a fast but most teas and herbs are OK. Supplements and meds often break ketosis directly or contain a filler that will. Many meds are dangerous to take while fasting.
Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it when the fast is broken by increasing lutenizing hormone. Fasting also increases insulin sensitivity, which helps with muscle building.
Fasting activates autophagy (literally self eating). This will cause cells to recycle damaged proteins and foreign matter such as viruses.
Lowering insulin via fasting virtually eliminates chronic inflammation in the body.
Weight loss from daily caloric restriction has 1/4 to 1/3 of the weight lost as lean tissue while many studies show fat loss from 36 h fasts without losing any lean tissue!
The obese will lose loose skin while fasting, but the frail will have increased growth hormone release, which helps to make more lean tissue and reduce frailness.
Fasts of 36-96 will not affect short term female fertility or affect menstrual cycle. They also may increase long term fertility for some women.
Fasting reduces pain and anxiety by stimulating the endocannabinoid system, just like the effect of CBD oil
Just 24h of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half! This reduces leptin resistance, which impairs immune function.
Stomach acid is reduced over time while fasting and can allow for the healing of treatment resistant ulcers. Some patients may need continued acid reduction medication while fasting.
Your brain also prefers to burn ketones at a rate of around 2.5 to 1 when they are available in equal quantity to glucose. Except for brief periods of very intense exercise, your body mainly burns fats in the form of free fatty acids.
It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitichondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism, fighting infection and cancer prevention!
Fasting releases BDNF and NGF in the blood which stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth. This can help a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers.
Fasting also increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level.
When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells, destroying them. Senescent cells are responsible for many of the effects of aging and are a root cause of the development of cancer.
A fasting mimicking diet for 3-5 days in a row also provides many of the same benefits as water fasting. FMD usually has 200-800 calories, under 18 g of protein and extremely low carbs.
Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia. They also help with dementia and many other issues even if you take them while not fasting!
Glycine and trimethylglycine can also be useful supplements while fasting that won't break ketosis and have many benefits.
Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness or tremors, then simply break the fast and seek advice.

This list compiled over years of research by the user known as Pottenger's Human on youtube. Feel free to copy and paste this anywhere you like, no accreditation needed!
My community tab will always contain an updated version of this list of fasting benefits. I also have playlists on fasting and health topics.
ChatGPT actually summarized all that stuff for me, plucking out the essential gist, without having to go through tons of text. AI is a magnificent time saver, it can even do Q and A's.
Started reading this and it reminded me of Pottenger…then I see why-
it’s YOU! 😃
@@MyBeautifulHealthha!
You forgot one...fasting increases the risk of heart attack by 90 percent!
@@mikedrabek9733stop lying
Great interview with Brad. I love what both you guys are doing. So solid.
Thank you Dhru for having Dr Stanfield on your show! I really respect his opinion.
I’ve got very strong opinions on supplements, I listened too much to the hype of supplements & would start taking them, one was Creatine! My blood pressure shot up to a scary number. So now I take very few basic ones like vitamin D with K & magnesium & eat real foods.
I agree with you 💯.
I have a very strong opinion on supplements, but I take vitamins A, B, C, DK, E, F, and the whole alphabet.
I agree with you too!
your experience is not typical. ask your doctor about it. Enzyme issues? other imbalance,
Was there maltodextrin in the creatine you were taking?
Great discussion - really appreciated it. For those who don’t have the time, the summary of the supplements that Dr. Stanfield recommends is at the 57:35 mark.
Great information👍
Pea protein has a very low bioavailability compared to animal protein. You only net 1/2 the amount of protein that the container claims.
Yeah.. but too many vegans and vegetarians not wanting to be honest with themselves… so we will always have “studies” supporting vegan proteins…and the lie continues…
Excellent interview🔥👏
Great talk! So far I am not ok with omega 3 supplements as long as we have nuts, seeds and cold pressed oils...I don't see the point. Thank you for the informative dialog!🙏
I’m a musician I have a pretty good exercise schedule I work out every morning when I get off I do something very energetic before I eat I only eat one meal a day,but Because of my crazy schedule my sleep quotient is severely hampered, now I taken to really consciously make myself go to sleep no matter what else is going on so I’m sort of on the way I think but I’ll take very few supplements and I have experimented with quite a few supplements to no avail
I bought resveratrol and took one a day. It upset my digestion to such an extent I daren’t leave the vicinity of a toilet. My testosterone dropped to 12.2. I stopped, the digestion improved and testosterone went back to 20 plus.
Love it🔥👏
What about Vit D! Great information !!
Why don't you interview Dr David Sinclair IN THE PRESENCE OF Dr Brad Stanfield - to derive an OBJECTIVE PERSPECTIVE?
I’m game
@@DrBradStanfield Great!
Now all we have to do is get the host of your interview to extend the invitation and hopefully he will accept. 👍
@@jakobw135Sinclair won’t do it. I believe Stanfield had tried to interview him and he won’t. I think he even blocked him.
@@moondrop3013 I don't think David Sinclair has anything to hide. It doesn't make sense to suggest that he's really a fraud
Metformin impairs, mitochondrial functions
It depletes vitamins B1,B6,B12, Zinc, coQ10...all important to the heart and brain.
According to B.Bikman it offset the effect of physical exercise. Which is a bad thing for instance for women in menopause who exercise for purpose of maintaining muscle and bone.
Take it, Don't take it, no take mine, no mines better take mine. Crap like this is ridiculous if resveratrol is in grapes blueberries etc I will continue to try and eat whole foods.
This doctor prescribes statins with 1.1% effectiveness in reducing CVD while downplaying Nattokinase with 95.4% effectiveness. Do i want him as tertiary healthcare physician? Hell No! 😮
Where do you get those numbers from? 1.1% vs 95.4%? I am very interested to see those studies
@@luzfeldmann6690 see dr.Ken Berry's Statin Deception and dr.Stanfield's Nattokinase clip.
@@luzfeldmann6690 Did you find dr.Ken Berry's Statin Deception and dr.Stanfield's Nattokinase clips. My answer to you kept getting eliminated by UA-cam algorithm.
@@luzfeldmann6690 What are the benefits of taking nattokinase?
Studies show that nattokinase dissolves blood clots - which helps maintain good blood vessel structure, improves blood flow, and lowers the risk of heart disease. It can also help lower your blood pressure, reducing strain on the heart that can lead to heart attacks.
This guy( Stanfield) did a video on 'useless supplements' one of which was multivitamins. During the presentation, he plugged his own 'multivitamin' five times.
I agree.. but in his defense, he explained why: multivitamins have excesively high doses of vitamins and he believes in microdosing.. he might have a point.. what we need to look at is the quality of his ingredients: what did he use? Tocopherol or Tocotrienols? Folic acid or Folinic Acid? Did he add the obligatory toxin Magneseum Stereate that should be banned by now?
Excellent discussion! However.. Glycan age testing makes my 62 y old 20!! And he eats very poorly and sits more than 8 hours a day and does NOT NONE exercise.. BUT he takes 30 supplements a day!
Never mix caffine wirh creatine, surprised that was not mentioned. Wait an hr after
Why?
I take a low dose green coffee bean caffeine drink and add creatine (and pop a taurine cap) before I practice intense yoga and have never felt stronger.
It’s so confusing and I never know who to believe
Why isn't anyone talking about super antioxidant ASTAXANTHIN???
I took that for years and also took Rhodiola rosea SHR-5 extract (Arctic Root from Swedish Herbal Institute). Those were the only two supplements I took and I felt very well. Ate an extremely high quality diet sans all processed foods. I don't know why I stopped taking those but glad you mentioned Astaxanthin because I feel like it's very beneficial and would like to go back on it. Will trying locating the Arctic Root as the natural practitioner who imported it has since retired.
He did, only 3 months ago. Again he cast doubt on this greatest anti-oxidant and vitamin E especially Tocotrienols by using old data from synthetic dl-alpha tocopherol that increased prostate cancer.
Man is totally arbitrary, against potentially bebeficial supplements like PQQ, Astaxanthin, Tocotrienols for lack of 'Safety data' despite lack-of-harm data. In the case of Astaxanthin, 'inaignificant clinical benefits' were seen even though it effectively reduces the eye-strains from staring at computer or mobile screens.y
ua-cam.com/video/h3xndciLidM/v-deo.htmlsi=bSzVCrQk2C9CyIjI
He did 3months ago...Starting with 12% increase in lifespan (in mice) and ending up with questionable benefits. Similar with 95.4% cardio- effectiveness of nattokinase and ending by questioning if the participants didn't cheat by taking (his favourite) statins on the side. What a down-under arse!
Lately he tries to become an authority that no supplements work except his micro-vitamins that has paltry amount of ingredients. Way to go, Brad!😅
On. NMN 1000 mg a day. Reversed pain and increased flexibility after 3 months pain from other old injuries stopped stiffness disappeared and. Helped joints From 40 years. If weight lifting
😂 you can believe anything you like if you feel good, it's proved that people going to church or temple and feel very happy. 😂
Exercise lift Heavy weights , lots of stretching !! 6 days a week
Eat healthy limit that alcohol and Dont smoke ! Take good supplements !!! And get your sleep!!!! ENJOY LIFE 🥰
Caution: re collagen and kidney stone formation. For kidney stone formers collagen can greatly increase the risk of kidney stone formation as collagen can convert over to oxalate, so not advised for kidney stone formers just fyi
❤
Regarding Creatine - you didn't ask an important question: can you safely consume it while caffeine is in your blood? WeMD warrants not to do that because you can get everything from gastric distress to STROKE!
I ve checked these guidelines n i ve not one study not telling you about the benefits of resveratrol … sorry but not a single one… I haven’t read all of them, but I ve not seen one… showing the bad risks anyway…???
What kind of story r u telling there n why? Pls, insert the study u r speaking about that people r also able to believe that?!
I get ALL my best vitamins in my organ meats, grass fed and grass finished here at my farmers market🙏👌😉
This guy seems to be trying to help people save money but boy, I saw a site one day everybody was bashing him LoL well if it works placebo vaffect works even better... 😅
David Sinclair’s arguments make much more sense to me. That’s why I’m still taking supplements like Resveratrol.
Made me feel bad so I quit taking. Glad I did.
Sinclair is a huge fraud. You need to look into it a bit.
It is not about “arguments” It is about double blind studies. An opinion, especially biased is not something I would want to follow
Wrong to many Doctors have debunked Sinclair as a sham, he it making tons of money off people " including you" off his products that don't work.
In an interview, Sinclair states that he takes 1 g of metformin for two reasons: “My family has a history of diabetes and metformin is very effective at treating diabetes and even preventing it. So I do that for disease reasons.”
=resveratrol helps with autophagy when fasting
Why did you switch FROM vegan to pescatarian? Can you not have adequate levels of Omega-3 as a vegan, by taking the appropriate supplements - like many exercise enthusiasts, and even weightlifters do, who only eat plants?
Wow, still behind the times and latest studies on how bad long term veganism is for long term health, muscle wasting, hormone dis-regulation, brain atrophy and dementia. You did know the brain is made of mostly fats and cholesterol. Watch Dr Erick Westman, Dr Tim Noaks, Dr Paul Mason, Dr Ronda Patrick they talk about the research on veganism.
WARNS not warrants
I really LOVE all your podcasts but I turned this one off at :31 (first time).
Why?
Would you mind sharing why? I’m curious. Thanks….
This doctor is correct! David Sinclair is a fraud and those who are in anti aging research arena know this. He cannot substantiate his claims and has gotten SUED over it.
Yes why
Because he said he took one of the supplements himself. 🤷🏼♀️
HMB didn't make the goto list.
Brad Stanfield is a scammer and the proof is that he keeps soliciting funds for a trial he wants to run when in fact he is not a scientist and not qualified to run a trial and is a doctor and should be spending his time working pro bono to help poor people with their health problems instead of being a narcissist who cannot resist being on camera so just listen closely between the lines and you can tell this is not a whole adjusted human being and he should be banned from UA-cam for using hyperbole to attract viewers videos😢😢😢😢
Brad Stanfield? Seriously? How low have we come, Dhru? I blocked that narcissistic imposter of science and medicine from my UA-cam ages ago. He misinterprets research regularly. In one example, he took a study - that was literally about diabetics - and used it as a basis to make an argument he wanted to make about the population as a whole. He tries to make a name for himself by shock-jocking, picking fights. He does no research himself. He is nothing but a UA-cam wannabe.
Sorry, but I can't accept anything this guy is saying. Dr. Sinclair is a scientist and never encouraged anyone to take resveratrol. I listened to all his interviews and not even one video that promoted taking it just because he is beneficial and it's lucrative for him. Shame, really shame
Well also brad stanfield is scientist
I can see lots of NMN and NR sellers upset , and you can see below their comments saying it worked fom him😂
Can we stop allowing doctors to monetize clickbait already?
