In this episode of the Sober Head podcast, Dr. Esra Çavuşoğlu, PhD, hosts Dr. Oliver Zolman, MD.Dr. Oliver Zolman, a graduate of the University of Cambridge School of Medicine, works in the fields of longevity, aging biology, and regenerative medicine. Dr. Oliver, best known as Bryan Johnson’s longevity doctor, joins Sober Head podcast to explain his three-level system for reversing biological aging. He describes Level 1 as foundational, evidence-based habits like exercise, optimal sleep, diet, VO₂ max, and social health, which can extend lifespan by about 10-20%. Level 2 covers non-age-related factors and building a “health Rolodex” of top experts, while Level 3 focuses on organ rejuvenation through advanced tools like gene therapy and AI-guided MRI analysis. He cautions against overhyped biological-age claims and quick fixes like HGH, supports moderate caloric restriction and GLP-1 use under medical guidance, and views rapamycin as promising but still unproven in humans. Now working with Only Health in Istanbul, Zolman is helping test experimental therapies such as follistatin and telomerase to measure true organ-by-organ rejuvenation. Dr. Zolman is currently focusing on experimental therapies such as follistatin and telomerase, continuing his work by conducting organ-level measurements of actual regeneration. #EsraÇavuşoğlu #AyıkKafa #ElevatingLifeEvolvingHealth #Longevilab#DrOliverZolman #Longevity Dr. Oliver Zolman: Website: https://www.oliverzolman.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oliver.zolman?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== Special thanks to T.C.
