Dr. Yi Song sits down with Dave Asprey, the entrepreneur who coined the word biohacking and has authored multiple New York Times bestsellers on aging. Recorded in the middle of the Drake Passage on the way to Antarctica, the conversation traces how Dave went from 300 pounds, pre-diabetic, and chronically fatigued in his twenties to a 53 year old who says he feels closer to his mid thirties, and what he stuck with for 25 years to get there.

The conversation gets specific. Stem cells in every joint and three rounds into cerebral spinal fluid, then later guided into the brain at a partner clinic in Costa Rica using functional MRI, magnetic stimulation, and focused ultrasound. MiniCircle plasmid gene therapy with folistatin, VEGF, and Klotho, including what Klotho actually shifted for him around cognition and vitality. Twenty years of red light, lasers, and pulsed electromagnetic work. A five day neuroscience protocol at 40 Years of Zen that he says compresses decades of meditation into a week. And why lavender essential oil, eight hour sleep targets, and the idea that you are simply lazy may all be doing more harm than good.

Dr. Yi Song, dual PhD in Pathology and Oriental Medicine and founder of Stem Cell Therapy Experts, walks through her own 2017 ductal carcinoma in situ diagnosis. She explains why she refused surgery, chemo, and radiation, what the research shows about over-treatment of DCIS, and how she used a genetic panel on her own biopsy sample to make the call. The framing is grounded in 6,000 years of Chinese medicine and modern biomedical science.

In conversation with Cat from Genwell, Dr. Song breaks down the breast-stomach connection in traditional Chinese medicine, what damp heat constitution looks like, why soy gets vilified for the wrong reasons, how to evaluate red light therapy strength and timing, and when an early stem cell injection can replace a knee replacement years down the line. She also previews her upcoming book, Regeneration Effect: Sacred Wisdom for Staying Young.

This is an educational conversation for those exploring regenerative medicine, integrative care, hormone health, and the limits of conventional over-treatment. If you are weighing options after a diagnosis, supporting a loved one, or trying to get ahead of degenerative decline, the framework here is built around root cause, early prevention, body constitution, and tending the garden of your own physiology.

In this episode, we explore how the endocannabinoid system works and why personalized medicine is becoming essential in modern healthcare. Len May shares his journey from early cannabis use for ADHD to building a platform that combines human genetics with plant science. The conversation dives into how cannabinoids like THC and CBD interact with the body, how genetic markers influence stress response and metabolism, and why dosage and composition matter more than strain names.

We also discuss the limitations of a one-size-fits-all approach in medicine and how emerging tools like pharmacogenomics and AI-driven platforms are helping practitioners create more individualized treatment plans. From inflammation and mood regulation to neuroplasticity and psychedelic therapies, this episode highlights the importance of understanding your unique biology before choosing any intervention.

In this episode of the Regeneration Effect Podcast, Dr. Yi Song sits down with Lee Weinstein, the original inventor of laser tag and a lifelong science innovator, to break down the real science behind red light therapy.

They explain the difference between lasers and LEDs, why “laser” is often a marketing term, and what actually matters biologically once light enters the body. You’ll hear the historical origins of photobiomodulation, including Florence Nightingale’s battlefield observations and early red light experiments.

Most importantly, this conversation addresses something rarely discussed: red light therapy can energize biological processes. That can be beneficial for healing and mitochondrial function. But in certain situations, such as active infections or growing cancers, increasing cellular energy may not be helpful.

Topics covered include:

• The real difference between laser and LED devices
• Why many “laser helmets” are mostly LEDs
• Eye safety and proper application techniques
• Mitochondria, cytochrome c oxidase, and ATP production
• Photocatalysis and cellular reaction rates
• Why red light may accelerate infections
• A personal skin cancer experiment and what it revealed

This is not hype. It is a science-based discussion about mechanisms, risks, and responsible use.

If you are curious but skeptical about red light therapy, this episode is essential viewing.

Using clear analogies like gardens, irrigation systems, and forests versus trees, Dr. Song explains how imbalances can quietly build long before symptoms appear. When circulation, detoxification, or systemic flow becomes blocked, chronic conditions such as autoimmune disease or cancer may develop over time.

In this episode of the Regeneration Effect Podcast, Dr. Yi and Lee Weinstein break down what truly matters when choosing a red light therapy device. They explain why irradiance, not marketing claims, determines effectiveness, and how most low-power devices fall below the therapeutic threshold. You will also hear how red light interacts with mitochondria, supports ATP production, and why timing matters for outcomes like fat metabolism and recovery.

This conversation also explores practical applications, from collagen support and joint health to immune modulation and recovery from minor injuries. The discussion blends modern biophysics with a deeper understanding of how the body restores balance, aligning with both Western science and traditional healing principles.

In this episode of Regeneration Effect, we explore how integrative oncology brings together nutritional strategies, metabolic support, regenerative tools, stress reduction, and personalized testing to complement the care patients already receive from their oncology teams.

Dr. Elizabeth Eversull, founder of LionHeart Integrative Medical Clinic, shares how she collaborates with conventional physicians while helping patients strengthen their resilience during treatment. She discusses functional testing, low carbohydrate nutrition, sauna use, hyperbaric oxygen as supportive care, sleep support, supplement planning, and regenerative methods used in clinical settings. This conversation remains strictly educational and does not offer alternatives to medically approved cancer treatments.

If you are curious about functional oncology, metabolic approaches, supportive care tools, PRP, stem cells, or how ancient medical principles can coexist with modern science, this episode offers thoughtful, grounded insights.
