I've been singing the praises of InsideTracker for so long that it was about time to have Gil Blander join me as a guest on Stacked. Gil is the Chief Scientific Officer of InsideTracker and an internationally-recognized authority on the science of aging. He leads a team of experts in the development of algorithms and databases that analyze biochemical and physiological markers and determine their optimal ranges.

In the age of fad diets and nutrition trends, Gil works to educate people on the true indicators of health. There is no one-size-fits-all approach, and what may move the needle in the right direction for one person might make no change for the next. We hit the ground running in this episode, cutting through the noise and getting right down to the markers that really matter (and they're not the ones most people pay attention to!). Gil shares fascinating data points on the correlation between red blood cell size and BMI, talks about the effect of "food-like substances" on the brain, and gives us a sneak peek of what to expect from InsideTracker in 2020.
