What if your skincare routine could actually trigger your body’s built-in anti-aging pathways? Most products just treat the surface, but aging starts much deeper, at the cellular level.

In this episode of the Biohacking Beauty Podcast, I’m talking with Dr. Melissa Cano, Director of Science at Longevity Labs and one of the smartest voices out there when it comes to spermidine, autophagy, and cellular health. Melissa has spent years teaching practitioners and biohackers how polyamines like spermidine can activate the body’s natural cleanup process, support mitochondrial health, and actually help cells function younger.

We get into why autophagy is the key to skin renewal, why spermidine levels drop as we age, and how to use it (internally and topically) for real results. We also dig into what the latest research says about spermidine for gut health, sleep, hair—and why I believe it’s one of the most important molecules in longevity science today.

Dr. Melissa Cano is the Director of Science at Longevity Labs. Dr. Melissa is recognized for her work helping biohackers, clinicians, and health enthusiasts understand how molecules like spermidine support autophagy, mitochondrial function, and healthy aging.
