``I think we know enough today for the average person to gain close to 2 decades of heathy life."

There is a lot of hype in the longevity space, mainly generated by influencers. For non-specialists it can sometimes be difficult to know which information to trust, particularly when it comes to supplements and medications. In this conversation I speak with biologist and biogerontologist Matt Kaeberlein. My goal with the discussion was to better undrestand what scientists really know about aging and living longer, and to seperate out the science from the hype. We discuss lifestyle factors, known medications, the influence of testosterone and genetics, as well as some of the more interesting treatments being explored today. We also touch on some of Matt's reseach in the area of drug discovery.
