Episodes
275. Dave Asprey: The Uncomfortable Conversation About Aging Naturally vs. Biohacking
There is an interesting contradiction in the way we talk about aging. We celebrate using technology to improve sleep, metabolism, cognition, recovery, and longevity, but when the same mindset is applied to appearance, the conversation can suddenly become much more judgmental.In this episode of Biohacking Beauty, we sit down with Dave Asprey to explore that tension. We get into why he chose a facel
274. The Peptide Skincare Boom: Separating Skin Science From Marketing
Peptides are everywhere in skincare right now. They are in serums, moisturizers, lip products, cleansers, body washes, and even shampoos, all promising some version of smoother skin, more collagen, or fewer visible signs of aging.But seeing “peptides” on a label tells you very little about whether the product can actually deliver those results. Which peptide is being used? Is there research behind
273. Dr. Staci Whitman: The Surprising Oral Causes Behind Facial Asymmetry and How Your Face Ages | Part 2
You probably know which side of your face you prefer in photos. One jawline may look sharper. One cheek may sit differently. One under-eye may look darker. And while some facial asymmetry is completely normal, the way you use your mouth can also influence how the two sides of your face function over time.In Part 2 of our conversation with Dr. Staci Whitman, we look at facial aging from inside the
272. Dr. Staci Whitman: The “Harmless” Oral Habits That Could Be Reshaping Your Face and Aging Your Skin | Part 1
You can invest in your skincare, protect your collagen, and do everything you can to age well, while completely overlooking something that sits only a few inches away from your skin: your mouth. The way you breathe, chew, swallow, care for your gums, and support your oral microbiome can influence far more than your teeth.In this episode of Biohacking Beauty, we sit down with Dr. Staci Whitman to e
271. Dr. Mamina Turegano: What Your Skin Reveals About Your Health, Aging & Hormones
Most of us assume that if something serious was happening inside our body, we would know. We would feel sick. Something would hurt. A blood test would catch it. But some health problems can develop quietly for years, and sometimes the clue that finally gets your attention is sitting right where you can see it: on your skin.In this episode of Biohacking Beauty, we get into the skin changes that can
270. Your Most-Asked Skincare Questions, Answered With Science
Social media has made skincare information easier to access than ever. One video can convince you to increase your retinol. Another influencer can tell you an ingredient is “toxic.” Then someone else swears your skin has stopped responding because you have used the same product for too long.But think about what that can do to your skin when you follow every new rule without understanding what the
269. Cynthia Thurlow: What Midlife Gut Changes Have To Do With Your Skin
When your skin starts changing in midlife, it is easy to assume the products that used to work suddenly stopped working. And when changing the routine does not fix it, hormones usually get the blame.But there is another shift happening at the same time that rarely gets brought into the skin conversation: your gut. In this episode of Biohacking Beauty, we get into what starts changing in the gut th
268. 10 Habits for Younger Skin That Have Nothing To Do With Skincare
Everyone wants skin that looks brighter, firmer, smoother, and healthier for longer.But sometimes the thing holding your skin back is not the serum you forgot to buy. It is the blood sugar spike you keep missing, the protein you are not getting enough of, the sleep window you keep pushing, the strength training you keep delaying, or the daily stress your skin has to keep recovering from.In this Bi
267. Dr. Amie Hornaman: The Thyroid Mistake That Keeps Women From Getting Answers
Thyroid dysfunction is often treated like it is easy to rule out. You ask for labs, your doctor checks TSH, and if that one marker is not flagged, you are told your thyroid is fine.But what if that is the problem?In this episode of Biohacking Beauty, we sit down with Dr. Amie Hornaman to unpack what most thyroid conversations skip: the difference between being “normal” on paper and having enough a
266. Q&A: Your Questions Answered on Exosome Skincare (Everything You Need To Know Before You Try)
Exosomes have become one of the most talked-about ingredients in advanced skincare, but the conversation around them can get confusing fast. Some people hear “cellular messaging” and worry about DNA. Others see plant exosomes, stem cell claims, growth factors, or vampire facial comparisons and assume all exosome products are working the same way.The problem is that the word “exosome” does not tell
265. Anastasia (Beauty Fascia) Part 2: The Hidden Cost of Fillers, Botox, and Skin Tightening Devices
A lot of beauty treatments are sold around the result people want most: tighter skin, fewer lines, more volume, and a face that looks refreshed without going under the knife.And because these treatments have become so common, it can feel like the decision is simply about when to start, who to go to, or which device or injectable will give the most natural-looking result.But Anastasia looks at the
264. Anastasia (Beauty Fascia) Part 1: Do Red Light Masks, Gua Sha, and Facial Devices Actually Work?
Red light masks, facial sculpting devices, gua sha tools, and at-home lifting treatments are everywhere. And when a tool promises less puffiness, a sharper jawline, or younger-looking skin, it is easy to believe the right device could finally create the change you have been looking for.But a face is not a collection of surface-level problems. The way it looks and ages is also influenced by muscle
263. Q&A: The Skincare Trends Worth Questioning Before You Buy
Skincare trends are moving fast, and it can be hard to tell what is actually worth your attention. One day everyone is talking about red light masks, then peptide lip balms, at-home microneedling, men’s skincare, acne protocols, or another product claiming to be the next thing your skin needs.The problem is that some of these tools can be useful, but the way they are marketed often leaves out the
262. Chris Duffin: The Peptide Mistake That Keeps Regenerative Protocols From Working
Peptides are being treated like the missing piece in recovery, skin longevity, fat loss, performance, and aging. The usual belief is that if you find the right compound, the right dose, or the right stack, the body will finally respond the way you want it to. But what if the protocol is not the first thing that needs to be fixed?In this episode of Biohacking Beauty, I sit down with Chris Duffin to
261. Reacting To Allure’s LED Mask Advice: What To Know Before Spending Money On a LED Mask
If you have been thinking about buying a LED mask, the hardest part is knowing what actually matters. The price range is all over the place, every brand seems to have some version of “FDA cleared” on the page, and a lot of the buying advice sounds scientific enough to trust. But none of that automatically tells you whether the device is strong enough to do anything meaningful for your skin.That is
260. Dr. Jennifer Berman: Peptides, Hormones, and the Anti-Aging Protocol Most Women Start Too Late
We have been getting the same question in our DMs for months now. Peptides are everywhere. Everyone is talking about them. But what actually has evidence behind it, what is hype, and where do hormones fit into all of this? So we went and found someone who has been living this conversation for 35 years, not just talking about it.Dr. Jennifer Berman is a urologist, New York Times bestselling author,
259. Dr. Dan Pardi: How Creatine Supports Brain Function, Skin Health, and DNA Repair
Creatine has been boxed in as a gym-bro supplement for decades, but the latest research shows it's doing far more than building muscle. It buffers brain energy under sleep deprivation, supporting bone density and mood stability through perimenopause, and freeing up methyl groups for detoxification and DNA repair.We dive deeper into this in the Biohacking Beauty Podcast with Dr. Dan Pardi. We also
258. SPF Is Not Enough: The Cellular Repair Protocol Your Skin Needs This Summer
When summer skin starts looking dull, congested, tired, or slower to recover, it is easy to blame the obvious things: heat, sweat, sunscreen, long days outside, or the wrong moisturizer. So the conversation usually stays on the surface. Use SPF. Cleanse better. Switch to lighter products. Add antioxidants. But before we treat summer skin like another product problem, there is a deeper question wor
257. The Mitochondria Problem Behind Aging Skin + How to Recharge Your Skin and Look Younger
Every fibroblast inside your dermis right now is asking 200 to 2,000 mitochondria to power its work in real time, and those mitochondria are descendants of a free-living bacterium swallowed by a larger cell 2 billion years ago. As you age, those mitochondria run slower and your cells build fewer of them to replace the ones that fail.In this solo episode, Young Goose co-founder Amitay Eshel breaks
Dr. Tyler Panzner: Hidden Trade-Offs of Longevity Supplements and the Advantage of Topical Delivery
Roughly 25% to 30% of the population carries slow variants in the MAOA or COMT genes, the two enzymes responsible for clearing adrenaline, dopamine, and serotonin from the brain.For these individuals, common polyphenols marketed for inflammation and longevity, including curcumin, act as weak MAOA inhibitors that further slow neurotransmitter breakdown. The result is a quiet buildup of stimulation
The Death of Anti-Aging Skincare & The Longevity Framework That Replaces It
Your skin has a biological age and for most people, it's not the same as their chronological one. Mayo Clinic published the SkinSpan framework this year specifically to quantify it, and the 12 Hallmarks of Aging now have a direct application to dermal tissue.This raises an uncomfortable question: if you're already optimizing everything below the neck with NAD IVs, peptides, and red light, why is t
The Overlooked Side of Autophagy Causing Aging - Part 2
The melanocytes giving pigment to your skin right now might be older than your car. They have been sitting in your dermis for decades, and unlike the cells on your skin's surface, they do not get replaced. They have to keep themselves clean which happens through autophagy.In Part 2 of our autophagy deep dive, we get specific about how skin handles autophagy differently from other parts of the body
The Overlooked Side of Autophagy Causing Aging - Part 1
What if your skin could literally rebuild itself from the inside out? In this episode, we break down one of the most powerful and misunderstood biological processes in the human body: autophagy.From its Nobel Prize-winning discovery to the molecular machinery that drives it, we walk you through exactly what autophagy is, how it works at the cellular level, and why it matters far more than most peo
Chris Mirabile: Why One Ingredient Will Never Stop You From Aging (And What Actually Does)
Most of what the supplement and skincare industry sells for aging targets one pathway at a time. But your biology does not age that way. It declines across 12 interconnected processes simultaneously, and by the time one of them shows up on your skin, the others have already been running for years.We at Young Goose believe that skin longevity is not a topical problem. It is a whole biology problem,
Biohackers React To Viral SkinTok Videos on Dermaroller, Red Light Therapy Wands & Tretinoin
Most of what goes viral on SkinTok is missing one thing. The part where someone actually checks if it works.In this bonus episode, Amitay and Anastasia break down three of the most viral skincare trends circulating today, red light therapy wands, at-home dermarolling, and tretinoin, and run each one through a biohacker's lens. Not to dismiss them outright. But to ask the questions the original vid
Real Talk on Motherhood, Postpartum Skin, and Rebuilding from the Inside Out with Anastasia Khodzhaeva
Mothers sacrifice so much of themselves to carry another human being in their body for nine months. Even after childbirth, there's a phase called the fourth trimester because babies are still heavily dependent on moms for their survival.Motherhood looks different for every woman. For Anastasia, who is a first-time mom, motherhood looked particularly different since her family is overseas and she's
Why Niacinamide Is Not the NAD+ Hero You Think It Is
Most of the NAD+ skincare on shelves right now is built on a misunderstanding. And if you've been trusting niacinamide to do the heavy lifting, this episode is going to change how you read a label.This episode is Part 2 of our NAD+ deep dive. Here, we get into what actually works to raise NAD+ in the skin, the real precursors, the delivery technology that gets them where they need to go, and the m
Dr. Alan Bauman: Why Biohackers Are Losing Their Hair Faster Than Everyone Else
A lot of us treat hair loss the way skincare treats wrinkles, as a cosmetic problem to cover up. But almost every case of thinning, recession, or shedding has something deeper driving it, and by the time it shows up in the mirror, a significant amount of density is already gone.We at Young Goose believe that beauty is whole body care, and hair is one of the most metabolically active tissues in the
The NAD+ Thief Your Skin Can't Escape: CD38, Zombie Cells, and the Decline
Most people know NAD+ as a supplement trend. But very few understand what's actually happening inside their skin cells when it runs out or what's stealing it in the first place.By the time you're 45, you've lost half of the molecule that powers virtually every function keeping your skin young. Sadly, it only gets worse from there. The enzyme your skin uses for DNA repair can wipe out up to 90% of
Dani Conway: The Gut-Liver Detox Connection & How Gut Issues Show Up As Skin Issues
Most people treat their skin like a surface problem. But almost every persistent skin issue, from rosacea to eczema to accelerated aging, has something deeper driving it.That deeper driver is almost always the gut, the liver, or a backed-up detox pathway. We at Young Goose, always believe that skincare is whole body care and we want our community to identify the deeper causes of skin issues that p
Skin Barrier Protocol: How One Reset Makes Every Other Skincare Step Work
Most people think that the stinging feeling, redness or tightness are always good signs of skin detoxification. Tricky enough, it can look like ‘glass skin’ or skin renewal. However, almost always the temporary tight and bright skin is a skin barrier issue in disguise.Skin barrier damage is one of the most misread signals in skincare. It looks like purging but it is actually your skin telling you
Sleep Is Skincare: How Timing Unlocks Your Body's Best Skin Repair
Did you know that the most powerful anti-aging protocol isn't about how long you sleep? It's about when. Getting eight hours of sleep for skincare feels like a tough feat to achieve especially when life gets in the way.By understanding how your skin begins its optimal repair time, it’s still possible to achieve the best skin results without the guilt of not sleeping enough.In our quest in finding
Alex Tarnava: What Hydrogen Really Does to Your Skin
Molecular hydrogen is often described as a selective antioxidant, but that framing is incomplete. In this episode, we explore hydrogen as a mitochondrial hormetic signal that can influence redox balance, inflammatory regulation, and adaptive stress pathways. The key distinction is that delivery route changes mechanism. Oral, inhaled, and topical hydrogen act differently in the body, with different
Dr. Scott Sherr: Why Chronic Stress Disrupts Mitochondria and Accelerates Visible Skin Aging
Chronic stress isn’t just a mental or emotional burden. It creates a biological cascade that disrupts mitochondrial function, accelerates inflammation, and shows up visibly in the skin long before deeper symptoms appear.We dive deeper into this in the Biohacking Beauty Podcast with Dr. Scott Sherr. We also talk about the sympathetic spiral of doom, why skin reflects mitochondrial decline before ot
Anastasia (Beauty Fascia): Facial Fascia and Massage + Lymphatic Drainage for Younger-Looking Skin
Fascia is one of the most overlooked conversations in skin aging. We spend so much time thinking about collagen, serums, injectables, and trending tools, but very few people are talking about the structural system underneath the skin that influences how we actually age.If you are dealing with under-eye puffiness, jaw tension, posture changes, facial asymmetry, or feeling like your face looks more
Dr. Jila Senemar, MD: How Early Perimenopause and Insulin Resistance Drive Skin Aging
Being told your labs are “normal” and your cycle is still regular does not mean your metabolism and hormones are stable. Early insulin resistance can quietly increase inflammation, drive midsection fat gain, and accelerate skin aging years before menopause is officially diagnosed.In this Biohacking Beauty episode with Dr. Jila Senemar, we break down why regular periods do not rule out perimenopaus
Jess Kane (BodyBio): How Omega Ratios, Low Fat Diets, and Damaged Cell Membranes Trigger Skin Aging
Advanced skincare routines are more popular than ever, yet dryness, laxity, and visible aging still persist. The issue isn’t effort or discipline. It’s that skin aging is being treated as a surface-level problem instead of a cellular and structural one.We dive deeper into this in the latest Biohacking Beauty Podcast with Jess Kane. We also chat about how cell membrane health shapes visible aging,
Valentine’s Day Special: Our Top Skincare Recommendations for Each Other as Co-Founders + Life Partners
It’s Valentine’s Day, and while we don’t usually shape our work around holidays, this one felt different because we’re not just co-founders of Young Goose, we’re life partners. For us, care has always shown up in daily choices and consistency, the same philosophy behind how we think about skin longevity.In this special episode, we flip the format and recommend ingredients to each other based on re
Marina Moiseyeva: Skin Detoxification, GLP-1s, and What Actually Drives Facial Aging
Skin problems are often the body’s earliest warning sign that detoxification, inflammation control, and nutrient absorption are already compromised. When detox demand rises and recovery systems can’t keep up, skin changes and aging-related signs become more pronounced.In this episode of the Biohacking Beauty Podcast, we sit down with Marina Moiseyeva to explore why medications and aggressive topic
Joe Radich (R3 Health): Why Skin Treatments Work Better With Physiological Preparation
Advanced skin treatments often underperform for a reason rarely addressed: regeneration cannot occur in a chronically stressed or under-resourced system. Elevated cortisol, inflammation, and metabolic imbalance weaken collagen signaling and tissue repair before any device, injectable, or modality has a chance to work.In this episode of the Biohacking Beauty Podcast, we sit down with Joe Radich fro
Collagen vs. Elastin For Skin Aging: Why Collagen Is Over-Credited
Skin sagging, crepiness, and loss of bounce are often blamed on collagen loss, yet the real driver sits elsewhere in the skin’s architecture. Elastin degradation accumulates quietly over time, shaping how skin functions long before changes fully register in the mirror.In this Biohacking Beauty episode, we unpack why rebuilding elastin is largely a myth, how elastin breakdown differs fundamentally
Dylan Gemelli: Injectable Peptides, PRP Exosomes and Skin Repair
Most conversations about advanced skin treatments stay at the surface, particularly around regenerative approaches, overlooking why lasting results are so hard to achieve.We dive deeper into this in the latest Biohacking Beauty episode with Dylan Gemelli. We explore why oral peptides often fall short, and how BPC-157 relates to gut healing, inflammation resolution, and collagen repair. We also unp
How Winter Accelerates Skin Aging and the Best Protocols to Reverse It
Ever wonder why your skin changes so much in winter? In this episode of Biohacking Beauty, we explain what actually happens when humidity drops, TEWL rises and indoor heating pulls moisture from the skin. We also talk about UVA exposure in cold months, lifestyle shifts that increase oxidative stress and why winter puts more pressure on your skin’s repair systems.We break down the winter ingredient
Eva Hooft: How Emotions and Trauma Cause Aging Skin
What if fine lines, breakouts, and flare-ups are not just skin issues, but the body replaying old experiences it never got to resolve? In this episode, we explore how nervous system patterns, unresolved emotion, and the way we hold stress in the body can quietly shape how our skin ages over time. We look at the skin as a boundary, a canvas, and a reflection of how safe we feel in the world.We talk
Liz Kennedy: Magnetic Beauty, Where Consciousness Meets Biohacking
Everyone is chasing the next skincare hack, yet true beauty begins far deeper than a product. It grows through awareness, alignment, and how we move through life.In this episode, we sit down with beauty expert and coach Liz Kennedy to explore how biohacking, mindset, and consciousness work together to create what she calls magnetic beauty. We discuss how affirmations, community, and daily rituals
Exosomes 101: The Truth About Cellular Messaging in Skincare - Part 2
Many listeners asked us to go deeper into exosomes, and this episode expands on everything that most brands avoid talking about: count, consistency, purity, and microRNA composition.

Real Japanese Face Taping Explained with Olga from Natural Face Bible
We have seen face taping explode across social media, yet very few people understand what real Japanese face taping actually does for the skin. Most viral videos show shortcuts or stickers that never interact with fascia, muscle tension, or lymphatic flow. In this episode, we explore the method behind true face taping and why the right tape, placement, and technique can support healthier aging at
Dr. Doris Day: Reverse Skin Aging By Fixing Inflammation
We’ve always said that healthy skin starts from within, but few people understand how deeply skin and longevity are connected. Every wrinkle, blemish, or loss of elasticity begins with inflammation and cellular stress that ripple throughout the body.In this episode, we sit down with world-renowned dermatologist Dr. Doris Day to explore how the skin doesn’t just reflect your health, it drives it. F
Fady & Marina: How Real-Time Hormone Data Extends Longevity
We’ve always believed that data drives better health, but even we were surprised by how powerful hormone data can be. Hormones influence everything from how we age to how our skin repairs itself, yet most people only test them once a year, if at all.In this episode, we sit down with Fady and Marina from Eli Health to explore how real-time hormone testing is changing the way we understand health op
Nathalie Niddam: Peptides, Bioregulators, and the Truth About Skin Longevity

Karin shares how she turned her own recovery from eating disorders into a mission to help women rebuild their metabolism and hormone bal
Joel Marshall: Microneedling, Exosomes & Why RF Isn’t Really Microneedling
What if the best way to rejuvenate your skin isn’t lasers, peels, or expensive devices, but teaching your skin to repair itself?In this episode, Joel Marshall, Founder and CEO of Dp Derm joins us to reveal how modern microneedling has evolved from rollers and stamps into the precision of the Dermapen 4. We explain how controlled micro-injuries stimulate natural collagen production, break down scar
GHK-Cu Explained: The Copper Peptide That Signals Collagen Repair
Most people hear “copper peptide” and think “trend”. But GHK-Cu isn’t new, it’s a naturally occurring bioregulator your body already uses to repair, rebuild, and rejuvenate skin.In this episode of Biohacking Beauty, we break down why GHK-Cu deserves its cult status in longevity skincare. We also unpack how this tripeptide binds copper to signal fibroblasts, activate collagen and elastin genes, and
Can Vampire Exosomes Really Rebuild Aging Skin? Here’s the Science

Spirulina: The “Blue-Green” Secret Behind Youthful Skin

Why We Had to Reinvent the Facial Mist (And Why This One Works)
Why do most facial sprays feel great, but deliver nothing long term?In this episode of Biohacking Beauty, we reveal the science behind our new Blue Peptide Spray, the first mist with a clinical dose of methylene blue, plus NAD+ precursors, GHK-Cu, and SOD.

Why Collagen Doesn’t Work Without Vitamin C + Other Supplement Truths
What if your collagen cream isn’t working, because your skin doesn’t have the raw materials to use it?In this episode of Biohacking Beauty we reveal the missing half of most people’s skincare: the internal protocol. From vitamin C as a collagen cofactor (“10x harder for your skin to build collagen without it”) to the role of omega-3s in plumping skin from the inside out, this episode lays out a st
Leah Vairo (FilterBaby): Is Your Tap Water Aging Your Skin? Chlorine, Hard Water & NAD⁺ Depletion

We explain how gut inflammation accelerates collagen breakdown, fuels glycation, and wea
This is Why Your NAD+ Routine Isn’t Reaching Your Skin + The Fix

The Truth About Beauty Brand Buyouts (And Why We Stay Independent)
