Daniel Lewis | Part 2: Reversing Aging (Without Billionaire Budgets)

Mar 26, 2025

Part 2.

We all know the headlines: billionaire-funded biohacking, flashy protocols, impossible routines. But what if longevity could be simpler - accessible, structured, and something you can actually integrate into real life?


Meet Daniel Lewis: lawyer by day, longevity guinea pig by night, and formerly #1 in the Rejuvenation Olympics. Daniel isn’t chasing immortality with an unlimited budget - he’s focused on what works, what’s measurable, and what fits into a normal life.


In this episode, Daniel shares exactly how he’s slowed his rate of ageing to just 0.62 - and dropped his telomere age from 27 to 18 (he's 35) - all while working full time.


We cover:

🧬 What really ages us - telomeres, epigenetics, and the hallmarks of aging explained

🏋️ Exercise without overcomplication - strength training, Zone 2 cardio, and chasing a 6-minute mile

💤 Sleep & recovery - micro-dosing melatonin, glycine and white noise

💊 Supplements based on research - spermidine, NAD precursors, alpha-ketoglutarate, and green tea extract (ECGC)

⚖️ Balance, not obsession - treats, travelling, and a cocktails

✨ The future of aging - cellular reprogramming, genetic testing, and what’s next in the longevity space


Daniel’s approach is refreshingly doable - it’s science-backed, data-informed, and built to work around real life. No extremes. Just process.
