No one accidentally beats Bryan Johnson at the Rejuvenation Olympics—unless you’re Dave Pascoe. What started with a few blood labs quickly turned into a full-blown system of hormone tuning, data tracking, and precise optimization. He’s not just aging slower. His biological age is 24 years younger than his real age.
Dave is a longevity-focused biohacker who treats his body like an engineering system. At 62, his biological age clocks in at just 38, and he’s achieved it without a medical team, a trust fund, or a warehouse of tech. What he does have is a rigorous protocol, a deep understanding of blood chemistry, and a habit of challenging outdated medical assumptions.
In this episode, Dave and I talk about how growing up with low self-esteem shaped his obsession with self-research, why most blood lab reference ranges are misleading, and how he utilizes monthly testing to fine-tune every variable that matters. We also dig into why stress once crushed his biological age score, and how he’s now outperforming some of the most famous names in the biohacking world while spending under $15K a year.
“Why would I want to be average for a population of sick people?” ~ Dave Pascoe
