Holistic Health Podcast Vol 22 with Vanessa Craig, PhD.In this compelling episode of the Holistic Health Podcast I speak with Vanessa Craig - molecular biologist, cancer researcher, and founder of Formettā - about the deeper science behind collagen and longevity.
Through her own personal struggle with health she became interested in how nutrition, among other lifestyle factors, impacts our health and longevity.
Far from being just a beauty buzzword, collagen plays a central role in cellular health and disease prevention.
Vanessa debunks common collagen myths, explaining why not all collagen is created equal and what that means for supplements containing collagen. The conversation dives into lifestyle and dietary habits that are truly non-negotiable for optimal health, supported by her own experience as a scientist.With a background in molecular oncology, genetics, and nutrition science, Vanessa offers rare insights into how science, resilience, and prevention converge to shape a healthier, longer life.Would you prefer to see this Podcast as video? https://ladiesdrive.worldMore about Vanessa Craig and Formettā: https://formetta.com00:00 Introduction01:12 Vanessa's Background and Education03:03 Personal Health Struggles04:48 The Importance of Preventative Medicine05:23 Aging and Health Perspectives08:26 Epigenetics12:07 What is Formetta?15:26 Collagen and Its Importance30:46 Consumer Awareness43:43 Is Collagen Good for Everyone?45:21 Lifestyle and Dietary Habits56:40 ConclusionYou can also find our podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major podcast platforms.
