Episode Highlights
We're All Bio-individuals
"What I have been learning is that the key seems to be personalization. For women, it's absolutely the key. And so any of the blanket treatments or blanket claims or, you know, influencers, they're saying, "just do this and we'll fix it" ~ maybe that worked for that influencer, but you're not them. You don't have their microbiome. We're all bio-individuals. Every single person listening to this. You have 40 trillion cells that are a unique combination for you. It's your fingerprint, your cellular fingerprint. It's based on your microbiome, your genetics, how you grew up, your mindset. All of these factors coalesce and make you a bio-individual. "
Longevity Escape Velocity
" This idea started with Aubrey De Grey, called longevity escape velocity, that we will reach a period of time where the technology will be invented that will extend your personal individual lifespan an additional 10 years, ideally with your healthspan intact. Right? So we can talk about lifespan healthspan."
The Healthspan ~ Lifespan Gap
"If I was to tell everyone here listening. I'm gonna give you an extra 10 years of life. Whatever day you're supposed to die, we're gonna extend you 10 years beyond that date. But you're gonna be on kidney dialysis, you're gonna be getting hip replacements, you're going to be on 30 pharmaceutical drugs that all each have their own individual side effects, and you're gonna live that 10 years, that additional 10 years in that state of continuous developing chronic disease... would you sign up for those 10 years? That's called the healthspan ~ lifespan gap."
The Incentives of our System
"The challenge isn't that people inherently are bad. It's just that the incentives of our system are really all centered around profit. So whether you are profit motivated to sell a pharmaceutical product or a wellness product, it's the same incentive. We have a lot of wellness people that attack the pharmaceutical industry, but they're driven by the same incentive structure."
Healthspan Productions ~ All In One Place
"I'm very fortunate, having been doing this for the last eight years, I've been able to build that network and that ecosystem. The brands, the speakers, the thought leaders, the podcasters, we can get them all together. The best people that I think are in longevity and health span ~ all in one place. We did that at the Longevity Leadership Conference, and we're doing it again at the Healthspan Summit. "
