They pull back the curtain on what a truly evidence-based, scientific approach to longevity medicine looks like, moving beyond the hype and "snake oil" to focus on rigorous diagnostics, personalized interventions, and the critical collection of high-quality data.In this episode, they delve into the comprehensive 6+ hour diagnostic workup I am about to undergo, discuss the hierarchy of interventions (from lifestyle as the foundation to the careful use of pharmaceuticals), and debate the role of supplements, peptides, and more experimental therapies. This is a masterclass in the practical application of healthspan medicine from leading clinicians in the field.This video was produced by One Billion Media, an agency that specializes in YouTube virality for health brands and experts.

I spent the first few decades of my career doing scientific research into the biology of aging, trying to understand the finer details of how humans age in order to facilitate translational interventions that promote healthspan and improve quality of life. Now I want to take some of that knowledge out of the lab and into the hands of people who can really use it.On this podcast I talk about all things aging and healthspan, from supplements and nutrition to the latest discoveries in longevity research. My goal is to lift the veil on the geroscience and longevity world and help you apply what we know to your own personal health trajectory. I care about quality science and will always be honest about what I don't know. I hope you'll find these episodes helpful!
