Your body already makes the most powerful wound-healing molecule on the planet, and now you can use it at home. This episode breaks down hypochlorous acid (HOCl), the compound your white blood cells produce naturally, and why it outperforms Neosporin, hydrogen peroxide, and synthetic antibiotics for everything from cuts and burns to eczema, rosacea, and chronic wounds.&nbsp;&nbsp;-Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR</a>&nbsp;-Grab a generous discount on your next purchase of Active Skin Repair by using code ‘Dave’ at:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.activeskinrepair.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.activeskinrepair.com</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;Host Dave Asprey sits down with Justin Gardner, a 20-year leader in health, wellness, and regenerative medicine who has founded and sold multiple companies and introduced over 50 innovative products into hospitals and doctors' offices. When Justin discovered hypochlorous acid, he shifted his entire focus to making this medical-grade, non-toxic molecule available to the public, founding Active Skin Repair to give people a cleaner, more effective alternative to the chemical-laden products that dominate the skincare aisle.&nbsp;Dave and Justin cover the full biohacking case for&nbsp;HOCl: how it kills 99.9% of bacteria, viruses, and fungi in 15 seconds, why it does not trigger antibiotic resistance, how it avoids destroying the healthy growth factors that hydrogen peroxide nukes, and how it supports the skin microbiome instead of wrecking it. They also get into AI as a tool for functional medicine research, why the standard of care is the floor not the ceiling, and how smarter not harder approaches to wound care and chronic skin conditions are finally going mainstream. Dave shares the story of treating a mystery acid beetle wound from his Amazon trip using this exact compound, and why it belongs in every medicine cabinet alongside your supplements stack.&nbsp;You'll&nbsp;Learn:&nbsp;<ul><li>Why hypochlorous acid is 100 times more powerful than bleach but has the same safety profile as saline&nbsp;</li><li>How&nbsp;HOCl&nbsp;mimics your immune system's own wound response instead of overriding it&nbsp;</li><li>Why hydrogen peroxide and Neosporin can&nbsp;actually stall&nbsp;healing and damage your skin microbiome&nbsp;</li><li>How&nbsp;HOCl&nbsp;disrupts biofilms in chronic wounds, sinuses, and on the skin during eczema flare-ups&nbsp;</li><li>Why most&nbsp;HOCl&nbsp;products on the market&nbsp;contain&nbsp;little to no active ingredient&nbsp;</li><li>How to use AI tools like Claude and Perplexity for functional medicine research that most doctors&nbsp;haven't&nbsp;done&nbsp;</li><li>Why the US standard of care is the floor, not the ceiling, for anyone serious about longevity and anti-aging&nbsp;</li><li>How to stack&nbsp;HOCl&nbsp;with red light therapy and other biohacking tools for faster recovery&nbsp;</li></ul>Thank you to our sponsors!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;-&nbsp;Viome&nbsp;| Check it out at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.viome.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.viome.com/</a>&nbsp;and use code 10DAVE for 10% off.&nbsp;It’s&nbsp;time to stop guessing and start knowing your body.&nbsp;- The One Device | Use code DAVE for $10 off at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.theonedevice.com/dave" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.theonedevice.com/dave</a>&nbsp;- STEMREGEN | Go to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.stemregen.co/dave30" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.stemregen.co/dave30</a>&nbsp;Use code DAVE30 for 30% OFF your next order.&nbsp;-&nbsp;Puori&nbsp;| Go to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.puori.com/DAVE" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.Puori.com/DAVE</a>&nbsp;or use code DAVE at checkout to get 32% off your&nbsp;Puori&nbsp;Fish Oil subscription.
