Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) has increasingly gained recognition for its myriad health benefits. Many think of HBOT as a specialized medical treatment that involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized environment. This therapy, often performed in a hyperbaric chamber, significantly raises the oxygen levels in blood and tissues, offering a range of therapeutic benefits.
In this episode of the Peak Human Labs Podcast, Dr. Sanjeev Goel sits down with Dr. Joseph Dituri, a retired Navy diver and expert in hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Dr. Dituri shares insights from his groundbreaking 100-day underwater experiment, which demonstrated remarkable health benefits, including reversing his biological age by 10 years. This conversation dives deep into the fascinating world of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, its impact on longevity, and how it can enhance physical and mental well-being.
Dr. Dituri discusses the profound effects of hyperbaric oxygen on increasing telomere length, reducing inflammation, and boosting stem cell proliferation. He also reflects on his time underwater and its impact on his sleep, energy levels, and overall health. Whether you're interested in cutting-edge longevity research or just curious about the future of medical science, this episode has something for everyone.

Our Guest
As president of the Undersea Oxygen Clinic, Dr. Dituri has applied his Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering to the development of a breakthrough treatment for healing Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), and the related symptoms of PTSD, depression, and long-term mental and physical impairments.
Joseph Dituri is an American biomedical researcher and former Naval Commander. Also known as Dr. Deep Sea his research includes life support equipment design, high carbon dioxide environments, hyperbaric medicine, hyperbaric medicine, and traumatic brain injury.
