AGEIST
The AGEIST podcast is where we rewrite life after 50. Hosted by David Stewart, founder of AGEIST and Super Age, we talk with extraordinary people—scientists, creatives, and thinkers—about living vibrantly in your 50s, 60s, 70s and beyond. From longevity science to emotional well-being, fitness to purpose, we explore the tools and mindsets that help us stay curious, energized, and deeply engaged with life. This isn’t about aging gracefully—it’s about living boldly.

John Peine: Gut Health and the Immune-Boosting Power of Digestive Enzymes
A few years ago, John Peine’s digestive tract effectively shut down. Acute pancreatitis had caused his body to cease producing the enzyme levels needed for a healthy digestive system. The experience piqued his curiosity, and he began deep research that led him to the creation of the digestive enzyme supplement FRISKA.
John and David discuss the link between gut health, emotional well-being and cognitive function, the difference between probiotics and prebiotics, and what it's like to launch a new product at the height of a pandemic.
“If you want better health, there’s really no better place to start than a healthy gut.”
