Is dementia really just a disease of old age? In this eye-opening episode of The Aging Well Podcast, Dr. Jeff Armstrong and co-host Corbin Bruton examine a major new study linking metabolic syndrome to a significantly increased risk of young-onset dementia—a condition that strikes before age 65. Drawing insights from nearly 2 million middle-aged adults over eight years, the findings are clear: your midlife health habits matter more than you think.

We unpack the connection between insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, and cognitive decline, explore the surprising risk factors—including in people who aren’t obese—and discuss practical steps you can take today to protect your brain health tomorrow. From nutrition and exercise to stress management and sleep, this episode delivers science-backed strategies for preventing early neurocognitive decline and investing in long-term wellness.

Whether you're in your 40s or 50s—or love someone who is—this conversation is a must-listen for anyone serious about aging well.

Is living longer really the same as living well? In this thought-provoking episode—featured on both The Aging Well Podcast and …We Have a Spiritual Problem—Dr. Jeff Armstrong challenges the assumptions behind biohacking and modern longevity culture.From Bryan Johnson’s Blueprint to the often-overlooked teachings of Jesuit priest and evolutionary philosopher Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Jeff explores what’s missing in the pursuit of “eternal life”: meaning, connection, and spiritual depth. He critiques the biomechanical and techno-optimistic lens of aging and introduces a more holistic framework—SPIES (Spiritual, Physical, Intellectual, Emotional, Social wellness).If you're tired of quick fixes and quantified health, and you're ready to explore a vision of aging that’s integrated, embodied, and spiritually grounded, this episode offers a powerful alternative. Learn why aging well isn’t just about living longer—but living deeper.

Welcome to The Aging Well Podcast, where we challenge the fear-driven, profit-fueled narratives surrounding aging and replace them with science-backed, soul-centered strategies for living fully.

In this episode, Dr. Jeff Armstrong and co-host Corbin Bruton take on the myths of modern longevity culture—biohacking hype, anti-aging products, and pharmaceutical promises—and ask a bold question: What if aging isn’t a disease to cure, but a process to honor? They unpack the cultural forces distorting our view of aging and offer a holistic, inclusive alternative grounded in the 6 Pillars of Aging Well: movement, nutrition, body composition, sleep hygiene, social connection, and spiritual well-being.

This conversation covers:

• Why aging is not a problem to fix—but a season to embrace
• The risks of labeling aging as a disease
• How to cultivate strength, resilience, and purpose over time
• The difference between lifespan and healthspan
• How to live better, not just longerThe power of small, sustainable lifestyle changes
• What it means to be pro-living in a world obsessed with performance

If you're looking for an authentic, compassionate, and research-informed guide to aging well—one that values connection, meaning, and humanity over metrics and gimmicks—this episode is for you.
