After more than a thousand episodes of Bulletproof Radio , he’s taking it to the next level with The Human Upgrade™ - a masterclass in biohacking, longevity, and performance optimization. Each episode explores cutting-edge science, advanced technology, and proven biohacks to help you upgrade your energy, focus, metabolism, and resilience. You’ll learn from world-class scientists, doctors, innovators, and thinkers leading breakthroughs in mitochondrial health, peptides, hormones, fasting, sleep, neuroplasticity, and more. This isn’t just self-improvement - it’s human enhancement backed by data. Every guest, every idea, every protocol you discover here moves you toward a longer, stronger, smarter life. Join The Human Upgrade™ with Dave Asprey - and learn how to live longer, think faster, and perform better.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-18T04:21:16.572334+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-human-upgrade-biohacking-for-longevity-performance-1031629"},"episode":{"title":"How to Get Microplastics Out of Your Body | Mara Labs  : 1478","slug":"how-to-get-microplastics-out-of-your-body-mara-labs-1478","published_at":"2026-06-04T08:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-human-upgrade-biohacking-for-longevity-performance-1031629/how-to-get-microplastics-out-of-your-body-mara-labs-1478","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-human-upgrade-biohacking-for-longevity-performance-1031629","url":"https://daveasprey.com/1409-microplastics/","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/mgln.ai/e/p394/rss.art19.com/episodes/ef06dec1-61a3-420d-a836-a56537c8369d.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","summary":"Sulforaphane, Detox Pathways, and the Science of Microplastic Removal  Microplastics are building up inside your brain, blood, and reproductive tissue, and most detox protocols do nothing to remove them. This episode gives you the cellular science behind why toxins accumulate, which three detox pathways control your ability to excrete them, and what the latest research shows actually moves microplastics, heavy metals, BPA, and benzene out of your body..  -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience:  https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR   -For next week, 25% off all Mara Labs products when you go to  www.mara-labs.com/DAVE  and use code DAVE at checkout. After June 11th, the code will return to the standard 15% off.  Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. John Gildea, a Johns Hopkins-trained PhD with 60 scientific publications and over 20 NIH-funded studies, and David Roberts, co-founder of Mara Labs and co-creator of BrocElite, the only naturally derived stable form of sulforaphane available in a capsule. Together they bring decades of research-backed biohacking and functional medicine insight into one of the most pressing longevity conversations of our time.    They break down the lysosome, your cell's built-in incinerator, and explain exactly why it gets clogged with microplastics, advanced glycation end products, and other toxins that won't break down. New research shows that sulforaphane triggers a process called lysosomal surface translocation, which releases those trapped particles so your body can finally excrete them. An in-house Mara Labs study confirmed the excretion pathway: microplastics come out in feces. In the original study,…","meta_description":"Sulforaphane, Detox Pathways, and the Science of Microplastic Removal Microplastics are building up inside your brain, blood, and reproduc…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":3681,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-human-upgrade-biohacking-for-longevity-performance-1031629/episodes/how-to-get-microplastics-out-of-your-body-mara-labs-1478/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-human-upgrade-biohacking-for-longevity-performance-1031629/how-to-get-microplastics-out-of-your-body-mara-labs-1478.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
