Medical doctors and researchers have done an amazing job extending human life expectancy, but healthspan - the time during which a person lives in good physical and mental health, free from chronic disease or serious disability - has not kept pace. In fact, in the United States, the average person reaching their late 60s can, on average, experience more than a decade in poor health.
In this episode, Dr. Chuck Svendsen, co-founder & Chief Medical Officer at Astride Health, discusses his vision for the future of personalized medicine and how that vision will shrink the time people spend in poor health at the end of their lives. Dr. Svendsen provides advice for how people can improve diet, exercise, manage stress, and sleep better to improve healthspan. He also talks about supplements and the importance of social connection to living long, healthy lives.
The conversation continues with a dive into GLP-1s and other peptides, as well as hormone and testosterone replacement. Dr. Svendsen even shares how AI and robots will shape the future of healthcare.
