Why do different organs age at different rates and how does that affect overall health?

Dr. Will Cole 0:00
50% of Americans that have a heart attack, their first symptom is death. And I lost my dad suddenly in a car accident because we think he had a heart attack. That was my dad. He was a bodybuilder. He was into fitness. He was into health. He was here one second, gone the next.

Today, we're going straight into why so many healthy high achievers are quietly aging faster on the inside and what to do about it. Returning to Young and Profiting to help us understand this is Dr. Will Cole, a leading functional medicine expert and best-selling author whose new book, Heal Your Cells, just came out. We'll also get into Ozempic AI and why real healing starts at the cellular level.

The younger you are, you are actually aging more rapidly than the people that are older than you at the same age.
Hala Taha 0:46
How does that make sense though? Because everybody says we're living longer.
Dr. Will Cole 0:49
There's many people in their twenties and thirties and forties that have cells of 60 year olds today.
Hala Taha 0:55
That's crazy.
Dr. Will Cole 0:55
Common, not normal.
Hala Taha 0:57
So like 44, you get like a big aging spike.
Dr. Will Cole 1:00
And the problem is it's just, you're jumping off the...

What are like two or three practical things that we can do to just reduce the amount of environmental toxic load?
Dr. Will Cole 1:10
It starts with what's in your house, right? Just one scratch of a nonstick, like a Teflon type pan, release over 9,000 plastic particles. If your brain cells were aging more rapidly, the researchers at Stanford found that you had about an

Will, welcome to Young and Profiting.
Dr. Will Cole 1:29
Thanks so much for having me. Can I just say, thank you so much for a few years ago, having me on your podcast and rooting for me then. And then when I reached out, you answered right away. And I said, I have this book coming out. Like, can I come on the show and chat with you and catch up? And I just, your kindness is off camera. And not everybody can say that, right? I can say that about everybody. And you're the real deal. And congratulations on the network and all the amazing things. And see how God's working through you.
Hala Taha 1:58
Thank you so much. Well, of course, I wanted you back on the show because you provided so much value last time. We talked all about gut health. I learned so much. You were like one of my first... doctors that came on the show. And then I started interviewing like so many different biohackers. So that was really cool. And today we're going to talk about cellular health because you have a new book that's coming out. I think it's September

called

Heal Yourselves. And cellular health is so important. And one of the most new things, unique things that I learned when I was reading your book is that parts of our body don't age all at the same rate. And that is something I had no idea about. So your heart and your kidneys and your immune system and your metabolism all can age at different rates. And so my first question to you is, how is this possible?
Dr. Will Cole 2:50
Yeah. Many people don't know, and not just know this, but why it's so important. Because when we're looking at the United States, and really any Western society right now, but the US specifically spends more on healthcare than any industrialized nation, yet we have the most chronic disease and the shortest lifespan of all Western nations. And we spend the most for it economically, but we're paying a human price for it too, not just in the quantity of our life. And not just the quantity of life, but the years of healthy years, the health span, not just our lifespan. But yes, one of the cornerstone studies that I talk about in Heal Your Cells, and I wrote the book with Dr. Josh Axe, a friend of mine and colleague of mine in the functional medicine space.
Dr. Will Cole 3:34
It was a Stanford study. It was published in Nature in 2023. They found that one in five Americans have at least one organ aging more rapidly than other organs. And why that's important is, and that equates to about 23 million Americans. That's a lot of people. But why it's so compelling and why we wanted to write about this and other longevity research is it's all down to cellular health. I mean, if you can actually heal the cell, you can deal with a lot of these chronic diseases.
