In this podcast episode, Brad, the host of "Over 40 Fitness Hacks," interviews Dr. Carl Giordano, an aging expert and orthopedic spine surgeon. They discuss the process of aging and whether it can be considered a disease that can be reversed.
Dr. Giordano emphasizes that while genetics may contribute about 20% to an individual's health span, approximately 80% is determined by their own environmental choices and how they influence their DNA and genome. He mentions that the modern environment, with thinner ozone layers, increased exposure to toxins, pollutants, and unhealthy dietary practices, can accelerate the loss of cellular identity and lead to the surge in chronic illnesses like diabetes, obesity, insulin resistance, and cardiovascular disease.
Dr. Giordano explains that while average lifespans have increased, chronic diseases have also become more prevalent. He attributes this to the introduction of harmful substances like seed oils and sugars into the diet, which affect cellular efficiency and accelerate the aging process. The change in omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acid ratios in the body's composition is highlighted as an example.
The conversation emphasizes the need for a shift towards preventive medicine and making healthier choices in terms of exercise, diet, and environmental factors. Dr. Giordano acknowledges that measuring health span and lifespan can be challenging due to the cumulative nature of the effects and individual variations in lifestyle choices.
