Wellness Chef Sam Gowing on Cleanses, Fasting, Detox & Trends
A dear friend of the podcast, Sam Gowing, is back to discuss the current state of the wellness industry.
We discuss cleanses, fasting and detoxes, and the onset of the mythical healing crisis that so many people create for themselves by chasing one trend after another.
Ideally you find this conversation somewhat liberating and feel less-inclined to fit a label or trend that is here one day, and gone the next!
You can check out Sam’s latest creation, The Wellness Chef, here.
For our Longevity Experiences to Ikaria and Sardinia, you can find them at 100notout.com

Damo has a bone to pick with Marcus!
In Marcus’s Exceptional Life Blueprint he outlines 8 areas of life – Purpose, Movement, Social, Nutrition, Family, Growth, Wealth and Spirit.
Damo believes social and family should be combined into “People”.
Marcus shares how the energy of friends is very different to family, whilst Damo wants just 7 areas of life and not 8!

Damo has started the New Year with a BANG! Or more to the point, a “Pull Over” and “Stop Right There”!
No, Damo is not at Police Academy, but I did perform a quasi “citizens arrest” over Summer after watching an incident at his local golf club.
The story is entertaining and the lesson is powerful.
If we are to build stronger communities around us, we must hold each other to account.
The behaviour we walk past is the behaviour we accept.
So enjoy the story, and consider the lesson!
*** Ikaria & Sardinia 2024 is coming! ***

Interested in the bizarre plant-exclusive diet that seems to be promoted yet NOT consumed by centenarians
Wondering what sets Okinawa apart from other Blue Zones
Wondering what their “secrets” to ageing gracefully are

How many people do you know receive a congratulatory email from Andrea Bocelli and his wife when they complete a major achievement.
Well our next guest – who we are proud to welcome back to 100 Not Out – received that very letter from Veronica and Andrea Bocelli … because at 78 years young, Don Riddington and 5 Englishmen set a new Guinness World Record for the Oldest Relay Team to Swim the English Channel …
To be clear, they combined for a total age of 464 years NOT OUT, with an average age of 77.3 …
And of course punching above his weight at age 78 was 100 Not Out’s version of The Don ..
Cricket can have Don Bradman … 100 Not Out will claim Don Riddington as The Don, because after becoming Australia’s oldest man to swim the Channel at 68 back in 2013, he’s done it again at 78 with a bunch of mates!
This is an inspiring story to kick off 2024!

Our annual look ahead towards 2024 focuses on wearable tech, health testing, AI, diet and of course, exercise.
Damo said Strong and Long would become a thing in 2023 – aka stretching – and low and behold, Stretch Lab has begun to become in vogue whilst group HIIT seems to be phasing out. In other words, Damo gets this right every time!
So tune in for a crystal ball of health, wellness and longevity futurism on this special Christmas Day episode and the final one of 2023!

It is quite disgusting – and concerning – that research on slowing down biological ageing has descended to this.
You’re about to listen to us take the mickey out of the latest findings in slowing down biological ageing, which were presented to the American Heart Association (AMA).
Damo plays the role of research scientist and Marcus, well he dabbles in between AHA Chairman and heckler and host of the podcast!
In any case, we hope you see just how flawed the mainstream recommendations are on what it takes to live a great, long life.
Here’s just one article outlining this “groundbreaking” research.

We are both self-proclaimed Christmas lovers. Carols, Christmas trees, the coming together of friends and family, and all that it means.
But that’s not the case for everyone. Financial stress and family friction are just two factors that see a lot of people dreading this time of the year.
Longevity cultures do special occasions in an extremely ceremonial manner. They are revered and treated with due respect. We touch on this in the context of our own upbringings in this Christmas edition of 100 Not Out.
