The Shift From Long Life to Quality of Life and Healthspan Optimization w/Dr. Mike Carragher

Modern living is laying siege to our endocrine, biological and spiritual systems. In order to claw back our health, we have to prioritize optimization at every level of society, from clinicians to consumers. How do we combat sickness, and expand our lifespans in a meaningful and impactful way? Why is the medical community’s panic over estrogen lab values such a huge fallacy? In our optimization regimens, how can we also make room for spiritual fitness and why it is so necessary? On this episode, we’re joined by top age management physician, Dr. Mike Carragher. He shares on challenging the sick care model, and achieving fitness in every area of our lives. 

 

Three Takeaways 

When we’re born, we have self-regulating cells. As time goes on, those cells are compromised through disease and poor nutritional choices. Peptides address these issues.

 

Health shouldn’t just be about living longer. It’s about making sure those lives and bodies are of good quality, and that we can move through the world and interact with it in a meaningful way. 

 

Everything that we have that’s physical and material is a disintegrating frequency except the love in our hearts and the experiences we’ve had. 

 

At the start of the show, Dr. Mike Carragher shared how he got started in medicine, and why he was so drawn to age management and health optimization. We also discussed how endocrine disrupting chemicals are causing the feminization of everything. 

We also discussed;

• The fallacy of lab values 
• Spiritual practices and routines to help us tap into what matters
