LifeWave Q&A with David Schmidt, 2020
Recently, we did a Q&A with David Schmidt, our CEO. Learn more about his background, what inspired him to start this incredible company, and what excites him most about our products:
Q: What kind of a kid were you?
A: I was definitely a bit of a nerd and an oddball. I built rockets, did experiments, took things apart to see how they worked. My best friend and I spent a lot of time in our parents’ workshops tinkering with things. I actually took apart an old Pong-type video game that my brother got one year. I was really into just seeing how the world worked.
I read this book by Viktor Schauberger, an Austrian Naturalist, called Nature Was My Teacher, which had a big impact on me. He was basically saying that the way to understand the world was by looking to nature. That helped push me toward the field of biometrics and it’s still a philosophy we practice at LifeWave, which is trying to mimic natural processes to support wellness.
Q: Can you name a particular event that motivated your interest in wellness?
A: A big one for me was watching an episode of The Merv Griffin Show when I was 15. Dr. Durk Pearson was on talking about his book, Life Extension. I was entranced and I got the book and read it cover to cover. That’s when I knew that I wanted to help people live longer and stay younger.
Q: How did LifeWave first begin?
A: The original idea came during my work with the Navy developing survival equipment. We were trying to create ways to help crew members of a mini-sub stay awake without the need for drugs. So I started looking into natural ways to increase energy in the body. That investigation turned into three years of research which culminated with the first LifeWave prototype: the Energy Enhancer Patch.
Q: Can you talk a bit about your newest product X39®?
A: First off, it’s important to note that this product has undergone quite a few clinical trials. We’ve completed seven to date, and four additional studies have already begun. That’s far above the legal burden of two clinical studies in the U.S. They were motivated by wanting to learn as much as we can, which helps us create the best results.
One of the researchers we’ve worked with for a long time, Dr. Melinda Connor, presented her clinical studies at our LifeWave conference earlier this year. She demonstrated how X39® improves metabolism in some really exciting ways. That’s interesting because a lot of people already know about how X39® activates stem cells, but it’s really doing so much more than that.
One of the areas it can have a marked impact is in our mitochondria, the powerhouses of the cells. We’re seeing that X39® can reverse mitochondrial degradation which can produce more energy and help slow the aging process.
Q: How is this different than the energy boost experienced with the Energy Enhancer Patch?
A: The Energy Enhancer Patch works by getting our cells to increase fat-burning, which is more efficient. But X39® gets cells to actually act as if they were younger, which carries a ton of additional benefits beyond increasing energy levels.
Q: Can you elaborate on some of these other benefits?
A: Sure. Another impressive result came about from a recent study where we were measuring levels of copper peptide, GHK-Cu, and its precursor, GHK. During these tests, we found that X39® elevated levels of both. That’s important because these molecules help reset genes to a younger state. And we saw significant improvements in these levels within 24 hours of applying the X39® patch. In some people, the increase was over 300% within a week.
Q: Are there ways to increase the benefits of X39® through lifestyle choices?
A: Yes, we believe so. Of course, it’s important to do all the basics like eat a healthful diet, supplement wisely, exercise, etc. With that kind of foundation, X39® can provide really impressive additional results.
Q: Any other information you can share about the LifeWave Las Vegas conference?
A: Dr. Chevalier, who’s been working with this stuff for years, spoke at the conference. He’s been researching the role of copper peptide in cognitive function for some time and his results have been impressive. He presented some infrared brain-mapping before-and-after photos at the conference that were dramatic. They showed the improvements that occurred in mental function within weeks of changing levels of copper peptide.
Q: Do you have any final thoughts on the exciting work you’re doing?
A: I’ll say that this work is really changing my conception of how we can improve as we age. I think once people see the research, they’ll feel similarly. We’re getting to the point where we can allow people to age in a way that maintains their youthful qualities so that they can basically do what they want without being limited by their bodies.
