What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Met Darin recently in a hotel gym where he was doing a killer interval workout on the peloton. Super friendly and down to earth guy. I expressed to him my interest in health and wellness podcasts (ex: Huberman Lab), and he told me about his own podcast where he covers similar topics to become the best version of yourself. Couldn’t recommend this podcast enough.

Jack Pirozzi · Mar 2026

Easily my favorite podcast. My health has never been better since I’ve started listening to the amazing advice of Darin and his guests!

Nick Lerman · Mar 2025

I really enjoy this podcast, especially the interviews with naturopaths, people with eco businesses, and anyone who shares information with actionable steps.

Thanks so much for putting all this information together for the world to hear! It has tied all the information I have been listening to and reading…Your books Superlife and Fatal Conveniences, really tie together all the Plant Based doctors who have been saying it’s the food for so long. Your facts about our water and products we use everyday are very much appreciated! I enjoy listening to you and your guests and have purchased Barùkas as well as Fatty 15! Little tweaks for longevity! Andrea W.

Full disclosure, I’ve only listened to one episode of this podcast and it was the one about caffeine. I really hate to have to give any podcast a bad rating but Darin made a strong and definitive claim about caffeine’s effect on Totipotent stem cells that, from what I can tell, is patently incorrect. His exact claim: “The other important thing I want to raise your attention to… one of the top stem cell researchers on the planet said without a doubt the most powerful healing stem cell is the Totipotent Stem Cell, even though they do go down over time. Over 100mg of caffeine per day kills the Totipotent stem cells. Disrupts them or destroys them. So just keep in mind that when you are drinking more than 100mg per day, you’re killing off the top stem cells in your body. I found nothing backing this claim and from the research I did, human beings don’t even have Totipotent stem cells beyond two weeks after they become a fertilized embryo. I looked through all the sources he put on the episode page most of which actually claim up to 300 or 400 mg per day is safe… a far cry from 100mg. I sent him several emails and follow ups to multiple different accounts simply asking him for sources or anything that can back up these claims because I genuinely wanted to know if they were true or not. I try to limit my caffeine but 100mg is really not a lot and some coffee brands have more than that in a single cup alone. My emails were 100% friendly and came from a curious perspective, not an adversarial one. I’m sure Darin is a busy guy and might not have time to respond to all the emails he gets, and fair enough. But what isn’t fair enough is making definitive claims on a health podcast that are completely unsubstantiated that might impact the consumption habits and lives of those listening to his podcast. My concern is what else is he making up in other episodes of his podcast? Happy to change this review if this is addressed or I am wrong.
