Join me for a fascinating deep dive into the science of immune aging with Dr. Natalia Mitin, founder and CEO of Sapere Bio. We explore why the aging of the immune system is the primary driver of aging for the entire body and unpack the concept of cellular senescence—often called "zombie cells"—where stressed cells persist and create chronic inflammation. Dr. Mitin explains why consumer tests that assign a specific "biological age" in years are often scientifically lacking compared to measuring where you stand within a population's trajectory. We also discuss cutting-edge longevity targets, including T-cell exhaustion (and how drugs like Rapamycin and SGLT2 inhibitors address it), the critical role of gut health (where 70% of the immune system resides), and how mitochondrial function in stem cells can correlate with an extra 15 years of healthspan.
