Biohacking and Longevity: What is Leaky Syndrome?

So, today the topic is definition of, and even more importantly, an understanding of this new buzzword, this new phenomenon, if you will, Leaky Syndrome. What is Leaky Syndrome and how did it come to be actually?

00:38 The Birth of 'Leaky Syndrome' Concept

It's everywhere, leaky gums, it's leaky gut, it's leaky heart, it's leaky brain, it's leaky liver, it's leaky kidney. Leaky Syndrome. I think it was a lighbulb moment for me too, because I'd actually been thinking about that as you and I had several conversations leading up to that, talking about how it's such a similar concept of what's happening in our blood vessels. That’s a similar concept of what's happening with very varied reasons for dementia, whether it's vascular related or it's Alzheimer's type or glucose toxicity type or brain injury. All of those have a similar, we call it pathophysiologic. Physiologic or physiology means the normal functioning of the body and then pathophysiologic or pathophysiology is something that should be occurring in a certain way because it's healthy. Then it's now pathologic; it's not occurring in a healthy way. It's occurring in an unhealthy way, or it's going in that direction.

So, we saw this shift from what Lora calls creating health to fighting disease. We were somewhere in the middle of that. And it's like, at the same time, we were in the middle of wanting to change the whole paradigm from naming the disease, finding the disease, naming it, applying an ICD 10 code, and treating it with a pill or a procedure. We wanted to move away from that to yes, we know this is going on this disease process but creating health to eradicate the disease while we're treating the disease and thinking of the body as an entire human system.

While we were having all of those conversations, then we were also having these very nitty gritty cellular level conversations about what's happening with these cells and the immune system is doing this to try to resolve a problem in the artery wall or in the gingivitis or periodontitis or in the GI tract. And it was a recurring theme because, as you said, once you have all of the contributors to the problem of either leaky gums or leaky arteries or anything, your whole body is affected and you're moving towards disease and away from health. So, anyway, Leaky Syndrome seemed to fit. So, we claim it, that's for sure.

12:20 The Future of Health: Longevity and Biohacking

And we have a lot more to say about Leaky Syndrome, about creating health, about cellular health, about the human body as an entire system, and how you can have the life you deserve now and that you want now, and most importantly, plan now for the end of life so that you can live as long as you want and be just as active and just as functional, just as cognitively intact, if you will, able to do your favorite thing, that would be the ideal.

And if you plan for it now, you can be doing your favorite thing with your last breath at age, I don't know, you can pick it. I used to say 90. Then I said, 95. Okay, all right, I'm going to live to be 100. And now, with our colleagues that we're engaged with on a regular basis that have their finger on the pulse, as do we now in terms of age reversal medicine and longevity medicine, it seems very realistic that we have the technology to live a very vibrantly healthy life to 120 at least. It's an exciting time to be alive. We're just happy to be a part of it.

That’s the whole biohacking era that we're in. I think these strategies and techniques and really what we're talking about is a Leaky Syndrome solution. What's the solution to that and being able to apply these solutions and going back to what works, like you said, not losing some of the fundamentals, but adding in also these new strategies and techniques that we have out there. I think it's just fascinating, and I hope we all can live to the biohacking world goals, and doing our favorite thing on that last day, and last breath.
