What if the real secret to aging well isn’t found in a futuristic lab, but in understanding your body more honestly than you ever have before?
From the very first question, this conversation challenges the assumptions most of us carry about health, longevity, and what it means to “measure” how well we’re aging. Instead of getting lost in the noise of biological clocks, trends, and high-priced diagnostics, Julian, Andrea, and Matt bring everything back to practical, evidence-backed fundamentals, the kind of markers any person can track, understand, and actually do something about. It’s a refreshing look at why knowing your sleep patterns, blood pressure, daily habits, and cognitive health may be more powerful than any shiny longevity product marketed today.
Andrea Maier is a leading geriatrician focused on improving health span through practical, evidence-based approaches, and Matt Kaeberlein is a renowned longevity researcher exploring the biology of aging and interventions to extend healthy life.
Their focus shifts to the future: personalized medicine, repurposed therapies, the role of AI, and the growing public demand for accessible, trustworthy health guidance. The ideas here don’t promise magic fixes or miracle pills; instead, they offer a roadmap for making better decisions, understanding your own data, and appreciating how much your daily environment shapes your long-term well-being. It’s an honest, grounded, and deeply encouraging exploration of how anyone can start improving their health span, no matter where they’re starting from.
