The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka: Daily Summaries Delivered
by Gary Brecka
Gary Brecka is a Human Biologist, biohacker, researcher, and an anti-aging and longevity expert. His approach to health is simple: "Aging is the aggressive pursuit of comfort." For over 20 years, he worked in the life insurance industry predicting mortality. This meant if he got 5 years of medical records and 5 years of demographic data on you, the team that he was associated with could tell a life insurance company how long you had to live to the month. After years and years of doing this type of research and analysis, he decided he wanted to spend the balance of his lifetime helping people live happier, healthier, longer, more fulfilling lives. With this mission in mind, he created The Ultimate Human podcast. In this weekly podcast, Gary has exciting conversations with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and scientists and is thrilled to share their transformative insights with you. What's keeping you from being an ultimate human? Tune in to find out.

319. Fatty Liver: The Organ Stalling Your Weight Loss
If the scale won’t budge, your liver may be part of the reason. Gary Brecka explains fatty liver, now called MASLD, and why it shows up in roughly 75% of people with obesity. Learn how a fat-filled liver can stop responding to insulin, keep releasing sugar, and make stored fat harder to burn, and how leptin resistance can leave you hungry after eating enough. He also covers the diet, movement, and sleep habits that support liver health. Don’t guess, test.

312. Perimenopause Symptoms Can Start in Your Late 30s - Dr. Remina Panjwani
You might think perimenopause is a 50s problem, but Dr. Remina Panjwani says it can start in your late 30s. She and Gary Brecka go through the early signs, from 3 a.m. wakeups and brain fog to a belly that changes no matter what you eat. They also cover why she prefers the DUTCH test over standard blood work, and how chronic stress and cortisol affect your hormones. Listen to Dr. Remina Panjwani on all your favorite platforms!

About The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
Gary Brecka is a Human Biologist, biohacker, researcher, and an anti-aging and longevity expert. His approach to health is simple: "Aging is the aggressive pursuit of comfort." For over 20 years, he worked in the life insurance industry predicting mortality. This meant if he got 5 years of medical records and 5 years of demographic data on you, the team that he was associated with could tell a life insurance company how long you had to live to the month. After years and years of doing this type of research and analysis, he decided he wanted to spend the balance of his lifetime helping people live happier, healthier, longer, more fulfilling lives. With this mission in mind, he created The Ultimate Human podcast. In this weekly podcast, Gary has exciting conversations with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and scientists and is thrilled to share their transformative insights with you. What's keeping you from being an ultimate human? Tune in to find out.
