Your Infinite Health: Anti Aging Biohacking, Regenerative Medicine and You
Discover the world’s first fasting mimetic with Dr. Chris Rhodes
Dr. Chris Rhodes is a PhD in Nutritional Biochemistry from UC Davis, and a Nutrition, Biohacking, and Longevity expert who has spent his research career unraveling the mysteries behind intermittent fasting and its incredible ability to optimize health and extend lifespan. During his 8 years of clinical research into prolonged fasting, Dr. Rhodes uncovered that a 36 hour fast was able to greatly enhance the biological function of the human body, taking already young healthy people and optimizing their cellular performance, recovery, and protective systems. Dr. Rhodes discovered that these effects were due to a unique set of molecules that are produced in the body only during long periods of fasting and that these “fasting metabolites” could be used to recreate the beneficial effects of fasting without actually needing to fast. To share this breakthrough with the world, Dr. Rhodes co-founded Mimio Health, a biotech company creating first-of-their-kind biomimetic supplements designed from human biology to optimize health, slow aging, and enhance longevity.

- LeNae Goolsby
- 00:02
- Alright. Thank you for joining us. It's Dr. Rhodes right.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 00:06
- Correct. Yeah.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 00:07
- Cool where are you? Where are you from? Where are you? Where are you right now?
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 00:12
- So I'm in San Francisco right now, and we're like just getting over the enormous heat wave that we've been having for the past week, which you know, I say enormous heat wave, and it's like 80 degrees in San Francisco. But it's a very big deal for us, right? We're very used to, you know, 62 65 degrees all year round. So like it's a big shift.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 00:31
- Man. That sounds lovely 62 degrees, cause it's it's like I can't keep my hair from frizzing up at all over here in New Orleans.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 00:40
- Oh, yeah, that that's a huge problem. So I'm a, I'm, east coast boy, originally from Pennsylvania, so, yeah, the the human the humidity in Pennsylvania versus the humidity in California for hair frizz very different.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 00:53
- Yeah, right for sure. Well, I'm curious, and I'm sure the listeners are curious as well to hear how you ended up.
- Being passionate about intermittent fasting.
- Product that you have. So can you take us on that journey.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 01:09
- Yeah, not just passionate about it, but like, let's dedicate my whole life to it and see where that goes. So I got my Bs. In biochemistry from Loyola Marymount University, which is down in La. But, you know, got out like a lot of college kids
- didn't really know what I wanted to do. I knew I wanted to be something in research but just wasn't sure what, really, what I was actually passionate about, right? So
- I took a 2 year immunology fellowship at Stanford, where I just kind of started pouring through all the research that I could get my hands on just going to seminars, seeing what actually lit me up, and eventually came across healthy aging research which I thought was so fascinating because, you know, it used to be this area of myth and legend, right, Ponce de Leon and the Fountain of Youth.
- but is now this very, very active and rigorous area of scientific research. And when you're in that space, eventually you come across intermittent fasting, because fasting is one of the only ways that we know of to reliably extend lifespan in model organisms. And when you go even deeper than that, you can see that it also helps to treat, prevent, or delay most major diseases.
- What I found really really interesting about that was that fasting does all of that without actually adding anything into the system. Right? So it's not this superfood or this wonder drug that's doing all that work for you. But somehow fasting is activating this, you know, dormant longevity bio program that's already inside of us.
- But just isn't ordinarily turned on, and when that clicked for me it made me mad because I was like, Okay, great. My body knows how to live to be 120 years old and in perfect health.
- But it's just not doing it. It's not being activated, like, you know, on a regular basis. So that was the catalyst for me to basically be like, all right, I need to dive in. I need to figure out what is going on in the human body during a fast that's causing these regenerative effects to happen.
- And then, is there a way that we can actually recreate those programs on demand? So we can get, you know, those longevity, enhancing benefits of fasting, but without actually, you know, having to fast.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 03:27
- Without actually having to fast.
- I'm curious.
- So okay.
- And I, I think I read on your site. There is something about 36 h of fasting, which sounds
- like when I even cycle psychically tune into 36 h of food. Deprivation like that just sounds like an insurmotable amount of time to go without food. Can you.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 03:57
- Yeah, exactly. So when you look in the literature, you see that you get the best lifespan extension from this pattern of fasting called alternate day fasting. And that's basically what it sounds like. It's 1 day of normal eating one day of, you know, water only fasting one day of normal eating one day of water only fasting throughout an entire or the entire lifespan of an organism.
- I tried to do that during my time at Stanford, so I got, you know, really, into the research, I was convinced it was happening. So I started, you know, doing alternate day fasting and taking my own blood, basically and looking at my cells, looking at my plasma functionality
- and I could see it. You know, I could see these beneficial effects that were happening. My blood became more anti inflammatory, it became more cellular, protective. My cells were more stress resistant. They were creating less damage from metabolism. They had better mitochondrial function.
- you know, like everything under the sun. And when that happens when you can actually see the results in your own body, you get really almost like addicted to it. I was like, Okay, great like, I know that this is working. It's amazing. So I started doing alternate day fasting for basically 2 years. And that was really difficult. Right? Like, it's not sustainable for your entire life. Because.
- you know, you're just not operating as a normal human being anymore. There's this weird element of social isolation to it, where you're not having dinner with coworkers, or, you know, dinner with family meals, with coworkers at at work. Right? You're just kind of like locked into this fasting zone.
- and then on your normal eating days like, yes, you can do that. But like you have to consume so many calories to be able to naturally sustain yourself.
- So it's just it's really it's really hard to do. And that was again like part of the reason why I was like there has to be a better way to do this like there has to be a way that we can, you know, activate these things. But without actually going through this process of alternate day fasting. But that's why we study the 36 h, Mark. Because when you're doing alternate day fasting.
- It's basically you know what you're going to experience throughout those cycles is a 36 h fast and then a 12 h eating window, followed by a 36 h. Fast.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 06:06
- Oh, I think I just stay in bed the whole time.
- and I gotta I gotta say, Dr. Rose, you look really good for 72 years old.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 06:16
- Oh, I know, don't I? Though?
- Yeah, yeah, I don't look a day over 70, really.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 06:23
- Oh, oh.
- funny. Okay. So you did the research. You did that for 2 years. That's amazing that you were able to do that for 2 years.
- And then so how did the product that you develop come into being? And
- what kind of trials were you doing with that? And
- is it like an appetite suppressant? So you don't even think about food, because that would be helpful.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 06:48
- Yeah, there is a component of appetite suppression to the products. I guess that's a little bit of a spoiler. But that's okay. We're we're here for the journey.
- So the after my 2 years at Stanford, after this whole, like, you know, trial and error of alternate day fasting with myself.
- I was like, All right, cool. I know what I want to do for graduate school, right? So I went to Uc. Davis to get my Phd. In nutritional biochemistry, and while I was there I was like, I need to study human fasting at a larger scale, right? I had done the experiments in myself before, so I kind of knew what was possible, but we wanted to confirm it in a larger population. So we had 20 people come in 10 men, 10 women to avoid a gender bias.
- and we had them fast for 36 h and looked at their before and after.
- and what we saw with them was basically what we saw with me. You know, we took these already young, healthy people and really enhanced their functionality, basically turned them into super people right? And that's very, very rare in the nutrition world like you hadn't. You can take 1 36 h period with already young, healthy people, and see these dramatic benefits to these plasma and cellular functionalities that really doesn't happen all that much. So we wanted to know. Okay, what is going on
- between one state and the other that could explain these beneficial effects.
- So we did what's called comprehensive metabolomics, basically looking at all of the small molecule components of the plasma.
- And what we found was that when people fast for 36 h, there's a unique set of metabolites that are created in the body that are really only elevated during a fast. And we screened through those molecules. And eventually we're able to find this synergistic combination of 4 of them that could recreate these beneficial effects of fasting within cells.
- and then also could recreate the beneficial effects of fasting in model organisms as well. We saw that when we took these fasting metabolites, which ultimately became the Mimeo formulation.
- and gave them to see elegans that we could extend their lifespan by 96% without them having to fast at all. So basically, you know, we could recreate these beneficial effects in human cells, we could, you know, extend lifespan almost double it right just through supplementation with these bioactive fasting metabolites.
- And that's ultimately what you know the Mimeo formulation is, it's taking what the body would normally produce during a 36 h fast, and then giving it back to people as a supplement, so that you can, you know, raise the concentration of those molecules in your body without having to fast, basically just recreating fasting at a molecular level.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 09:35
- Where do you get the
- the stuff?
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 09:39
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, we've had. We've had a lot of interesting questions about that, right? Because they are human. There are, you know, native human molecules. Right? So they're like, are you guys like draining people? Is this
- stem cell situation? Right? But no. So the the nice thing about these metabolites is that? Yes, they're present in human cells, right? And we make them in our own body. But then you can also find them in other places in the food system. Right? So, for example.
- one of our molecules, ole oil ethanolamide, which is the appetite suppressor. It's, you know, a natural derivative of oleic acid, and you can find it very highly concentrated in olive oil. Right?
- So there's just, you know, there's places from throughout the food stream that we can extract these things from, even though they're also native to the human body.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 10:26
- I saw that you had Spermidine as one of your.
- Ingredients. Did you know that? Oh, really, no, really pretty interesting.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 10:34
- Yeah, spermidine is a very interesting molecule, you know. It's very well known to be a caloric restriction memetic on its own. And that's because it's very highly involved in promoting autophagy, which is basically our cellular recycling program. So when autophagy gets activated
- that takes dysfunctional proteins dysfunctional organelles and it breaks them down into their constituent parts. So then we can use those parts to make new functional organelles and proteins. So it's basically like a cellular refresh button.
- and that's very, very good for longevity, right? When we can break down all the things that are not really serving the cell and use it to create new ones that are actually doing what they're supposed to be doing. It's kind of like, you know, rejuvenation at the cellular level.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 11:25
- That's cool. So so my question is bioavailability. I guess.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 11:29
- Sure, yeah,
- LeNae Goolsby
- 11:30
- That's the big question that comes to me every time somebody talks about a supplement of one nature or the other, they say, Oh, you take it, take it, put it in your mouth, and and it's good and no, that's not true.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 11:42
- Yeah. Yeah. So so after we did our initial study of the formulation where we discovered it, we did a secondary study. That was a pilot clinical study. Basically looking at that exact question, right? All right, cool. These molecules have this effect. But if we actually give them to humans, what happens? Do they show up? It's called a pharmacokinetic and dosing study, and it's what you would do in, you know, a phase, one clinical trial.
- So we had people come in, eat a standardized breakfast alongside a placebo control, and then looked at what happened to their plasma functionalities just like we had in the original study.
- Then we had those same people come back after a washout period, eat that same standardized breakfast, but then, with supplementation, with varying doses of the Mimeo formulation.
- And what we found there was that when people ate
- alongside a placebo control, there was this big loss of plasma functionality which is really typical in the postprandial response is what we call it the post eating response. So basically, what happens is, you know, your body's at this natural homeostasis. Right? Then we eat, we eat a meal. And then all of a sudden, we're introducing a lot of metabolic chaos to the system right? All these nutrients and molecules that are coming into the body, that
- we then kind of have to, you know, switch ourselves out of homeostasis and maintenance mode into all right. We gotta like break all this down. We got to figure out where it goes. We've got to store it.
- And then you also, because food is in and of itself a foreign molecule to the body. There's always some degree of inflammation that's going to happen in response to food.
- And that's what we saw in the plasma. Basically, instead of being, you know, anti-inflammatory. The plasma became pro inflammatory, and it became less antioxidant, cellular protective, and it became, you know, more metabolically perturbed, it became less cardioprotective as measured by cholesterol efflux capacity.
- What was really fascinating, though, is that when we had people eat that same meal, but then, with the Mimeo formulation.
- we could not only prevent all of that loss of function that was happening, but actually had gains of function on top of that. So, instead of being pro-inflammatory, their plasma became anti-inflammatory and antioxidant and cardioprotective.
- and we were able to see in circulation that each of these molecules like actually appeared right? So they're, you know. They appear in circulation around 1 h after ingesting them, and then they stay elevated in the system for around 4 to 6 h after that, depending on the molecule.
- And I'll also say that just because they're not in circulation anymore doesn't mean they're not in the body anymore. Right. Usually it just means that they've all been, you know, taken up by the cells, and are, you know, utilizing them from there.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 14:29
- Does it matter what you're eating.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 14:32
- So in our study, it's it was standardized, you know, between groups, right? We had them basically eating 2 Lara bars, which is just, you know, dates and cashews kind of, as you know, as healthy of a breakfast as you can get right.
- I would say that it probably does matter what you're eating right? Because there are just some things that are going to be more pro inflammatory than others. Right? If you were doing, you know, like a big Mac and a milkshake
- versus like, you know, a kale salad right? The Mimeo formulation is going to be doing its work right, but it has more to overcome with a burger and a milkshake than a kale salad. So you know, you're going to get benefit. But whether or not your plasma becomes anti-inflammatory completely, is going to be more dependent upon, like the meal that you're actually eating.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 15:24
- Yeah, so do you.
- Are there nutritional guidelines that go like if somebody was? Gonna take this not just for
- longevity. But I assume.
- in addition to that, there's like a weight, loss, benefit, and a mood enhancing benefit, like all these
- ancillary benefits to being on this product when you eat
- is there like for best results? You know.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 15:48
- Yeah, sure.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 15:50
- Donald's.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 15:51
- I mean, you know, as a as a nutrition scientist, right? I'm always gonna be on that train right like, for best results. Don't even know
- like, you know, I'm like you can put that on my tombstone like I'm
- I'll I'll go the go to the mat on that one but for Mimeo I would say, you know the healthier that you can be the better right? So the thing that I always say is, we can't guarantee that Mimeo will make you healthy, right? But I can guarantee that it will make you healthier. Whatever you're doing. This product is going to be additive to that. So it's going to. It's gonna help, regardless, you know. But
- the main thing that we're going to be putting in our body on a daily basis, right. This is something that kind of people don't really make this connection in the nutrition world all that often. But if you look at a pharmaceutical right at any given point in time. You're probably going to be taking. You know, this size thing of a pharmaceutical right
- versus when we eat food we're literally taking in pounds and pounds of food every day, and that's the main thing that's going to be affecting our system and our health, and how we feel, and our mood and our cognition, and all of these things versus you know that one tiny pill that's like the pill will do all the work for me. And it's like, Yeah, you you have to do some of the work yourself.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 17:09
- Right.
- Yeah.
- Do you have a question? No, I I think the you say no. And then you.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 17:17
- No, I don't. But let me ask this.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 17:19
- Yeah. So so the the moieties, the the biochemical, or are they?
- Are they? Are they protein based, are they?
- lipid based, are they? Which? Kind of? You know, my mind is still asking this question about the.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 17:37
- Yeah, yeah. So it's a, it's a combination of of different things. So metabolites themselves don't really fit into the typical categories that we think of when we think of actual nutrients right? Usually, what metabolites are by definition are breakdown products of those larger macromolecules. So, for example.
- like we talked about before ole oil. Ethanolamide is the derivative of oleic acid. So ole oil ethanolamide is a fatty lipid amide, so it is a lipid, and it isn't a lipid, all at the same time. Right? It's a lipid derivative. And then spermidine is a protein derivative. It comes from Arginine originally, and is a breakdown product there.
- Nicotinamide is a, you know, metabolite of vitamin, b. 3 and palmit oil. Ethanolamide is a metabolite of palmitic acid, which is just you know, a really.
- really ubiquitous, fatty acid in the food chain. So they're all just like sub sub molecule subcategories of these larger, more well-known molecule types.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 18:45
- That's great. And I, you know, I reflect back also to your comment about you know the the thought process of the pill doing everything. And you know, you know, I deal with that clinically
- on a day-to-day basis, with with my patients that are transitioning from A from A, you know, a conventional, conventional, reactive medical environment to a, to an empowered, you know, creative environment, and that, you know the they still struggle with that thing. Well, can I get a pill for that, or can I? And
- it sounds like, maybe maybe this is going to facilitate, facilitate that effort in the Mimeo, I think may, may help people transition into and empower them to actually become the creators of their health, instead of just wanting to wait until conventional medicine takes care of their problem.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 19:42
- Right, exactly. And I think that that's such a big portion of the longevity game, right? That people don't think about
- all that much is that we typically tend to think of like, oh, anti-aging is like, Oh, we're gonna like regenerate. And we're going to recover. And we're going to rejuvenate when in reality longevity is a game of maintenance and prevention. Right? You have to put in like the small daily efforts. And that's the thing that's going to compound over time into these very big results at the end of the day.
- and it's much better to prevent things from happening and maintain the current health that you have than wait for something to go wrong, and then try to fix it. And that's very much where the current state of you know, medical and Pharma really exists right. We treat symptoms, not causes. We don't do prevention. We do like recovery.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 20:35
- Yeah, that's that's I think one of the biggest challenges in clinic that I have on a day to day basis so really interesting to see.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 20:45
- Right. Yeah, everybody has the mentality that nothing's nothing's wrong until something's wrong, when in reality, you know.
- there are. There are things always going wrong, but they're just so small scale that we can't see or feel them. But those are the things that you know. Healthy aging and longevity interventions are basically trying to prevent is like, let's operate on this at, like the cellular molecular level, to try and fix these underlying things that go wrong to prevent these larger things from going wrong.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 21:16
- So now that we've dammed the pill.
- what form format is the is the is. The supplement is the supplement in.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 21:27
- Yeah, yeah, the supplements in a pill. Yeah. But the thing that I love about you know, talking about traditional pharma versus supplements, or even traditional supplements versus Mimeo is that
- traditional supplements for me are a whole nother category because they're by and large, not using native human molecules. And that's usually the big difference for me. This this formulation is, as we call it, biomimetic, right? So we're taking what naturally happens in the human body and basically utilizing fasting as this roadmap. For how do we heal ourselves? You know, we have this dormant
- longevity bio program that's already inside of us. Fasting is the thing that turns it on.
- And we're just recreating that. So we're really tapping into thousands and thousands of years of evolutionary design and evolutionary knowledge of how the human body works, and how the human body evolved to heal itself, and then putting that process on demand. So that's the thing for me that, I think, is super cool about what the product is and what Mimeo is doing.
- It's not just trying to, you know, override the human system right? Like a lot of pharma is doing with this one molecule, one target approach. It's really just trying to enhance what we already have and just activate the pathways that are already inside of us to produce this great result.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 22:58
- So what's the
- dosing regimen on it
- like every day?
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 23:03
- So it's it's it's pretty simple. It's just 2 capsules per day. And we're using clinically validated doses for all the molecules in there that we, of course, have validated in our own clinical studies, but then also the individual ingredients themselves have been looked at in over a hundred different clinical studies, and have shown a lot of really great benefits from like we were talking about before mood, enhancement, cognition, enhancement, appetite, suppression, and weight loss.
- And then the healthy aging and longevity effects the synergy there that we've been able to show in not only our, you know, initial animal model study, but also recently in a case study that we did with the Dave Petrino lab out of Mount Sinai. We had.
- We had someone take Nimeo for
- 8 weeks, looked at their before and after in terms of their cardiovascular markers, their inflammatory markers, their metabolic markers, but then also really interesting their biological age.
- So they were taking, you know, 2 capsules of Mimeo a day didn't change anything else, and we saw amazing improvements in their blood glucose levels, their insulin levels, their Hba one C levels, they had improved total cholesterol levels increased Hdl levels decreased Ldl levels. So improving the Hdl Ldl ratio, which is really important for the Cbd risk
- and then also really really cool, we were able to see a 2 and a half year reduction in biological age, after just.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 24:35
- Big peaks.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 24:36
- Yep, after just 8 weeks.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 24:37
- Which which biological clock were you using?
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 24:41
- So we were using the true mean DNA methylation. Just the the cheek swab saliva test.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 24:48
- Cool.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 24:50
- Yeah, they're really well validated. We like them. And, you know, based off of that data, we're now doing a big randomized double blind placebo control clinical study with that same regimen, right, 2 capsules of Mimeo over an 8 week period, looking at all these same metrics. But in a you know, in a double blind placebo control study with 92 participants. So
- we're really excited to hopefully, you know, recapitulate that same great data that we saw before in a much bigger population.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 25:22
- So you were able to look at lab markers and see a difference. Did the client
- begin to realize any effects? And at what point.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 25:32
- Oh, yeah, for sure. So he's he's now just, you know, on it, on it forever. He he became really hooked, you know, same way that I did right like he's he got to see the data. So he was like, Oh, this thing really works. But he was able to see improvements in his athletic performance, he was able to see improvements in his cognition and sleep quality as well, which is also something that you know we weren't really expecting. But it makes sense right when you're fixing everything else in the system at the underlying. You know, biochemical level sleep gets affected.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 26:00
- Gosh! Sign me up!
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 26:03
- Yeah, absolutely. Right.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 26:04
- How should
- Simpson here, or something?
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 26:09
- Oh, right!
- LeNae Goolsby
- 26:09
- What? Yeah.
- so.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 26:11
- Sorry I did. Yeah, I didn't hear it either.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 26:14
- So so in oncology, there is oncology, which is my my original training, that sometimes we could get pharmaceuticals for one cancer for another, cancer on compassionate use. Oh, yeah, that's terrible. I was just saying, well, we could do that. I would certainly be a volunteer.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 26:33
- Yeah, yeah, exactly. I mean, it's that's actually something that we always had a problem with, especially when we were 1st coming out with the product was that we looked at all of the clinical studies for these molecules that make up the Mimeo formulation, and
- we could not narrow down the benefits list right? There were so many things that these products were hitting from the inflammatory side of things, from the antioxidant side of things, the cardiovascular disease, heart, health, brain, health, joint, health, pain, relief, you know, sleep, quality, improvement, like all this stuff. Right?
- So we we even now we still don't know entirely what the right way to like, try and condense all the benefits down are but healthy aging and longevity is usually what we go with because of the conversation that we had before. Right? It's like when you fix
- the underlying problems that are going wrong in the cellular system, you get these widespread effects that ultimately promote healthspan.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 27:33
- And we and I, you know, I guess the you're. I'm sure you're familiar with the concept of the the zombie cells. Or Oh, yeah, I have the I have the
- the political misfortune of, and calling them welfare cells, because they seem to me to fit that that description very well. But in fact, this, this entire process seems to be recruiting those welfare cells back into the the valid population, putting them back to work and clearing out with the auto improvement in autophagy and all that.
- just a wonderful concept that probably, and then shuts down a lot of the inflammation. And then the byproducts of all that, and the and the toxic environment that we create in our bodies is subdued to a certain degree, I'm sure so
- wonderful sounds like a wonderful, wonderful pathway. Yeah.

- Yeah, it's all. It's all very, very cool. And when you really get down into the nitty gritty of it, it's it's really just about
- doing like, we said, what ourselves would naturally do right. How does the human body heal itself? This is kind of our pathway to do that. And so when we can just turn it on on demand.
- it really helps to tackle a lot of foundational and fundamental issues.

- Very cool. Well, what is one thing you'd like the listener to know.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio
- 28:54
- Well, one thing I'd like to listen to know is that you can find mimeo@mimeohealth.com.
- LeNae Goolsby
- 28:59
- That was my next question.
- Chris Rhodes | Mimio

- For sure. Yeah. You know the product, the products out right now you can try it out for yourself. I've you know I've been on it for years. We've got plenty of other folks who've been on it for years and have seen really great results from it.
- Yeah, I mean, I I think we've covered everything that we could possibly cover about it, and all the cool things that it's doing. So I think we we did. We did a good job. Y'all.
- LeNae Goolsby

- Okay. Okay. Spell Mimeo, for those. I mean.

- Great point. So Mimeo is MIMI. O, so that's actually a combination of mimic and biology together, which gets at our, you know, fundamental, underlying biomimetic approach. And I guess one thing that we didn't talk about.
- We have the current product, right? Which is our fasting memetic. But then, Mimeo, as a company, our goal is to continue to tease out and research these interesting regenerative states of the body. So we did this with fasting right. But you could also do this with exercise and with sleep and with cold exposure and with meditation, right to try and
- find these interesting new metabolites and combinations of molecules in these biomimetic formulations to help recreate all of those beneficial effects at the same time. So the future of Mimeo, beyond the fasting memetic is really like an exercise memetic and a sleep memetic and a meditation memetic and really finding out what makes the human body tick, and then putting that
- power in our hands.
