Why Most Longevity Advice Fails: Chris Moore Reveals
Longevity is no longer about living longer, it’s about avoiding the slow decline most people mistake for “normal aging.”
In this episode, Chris Moore, a leading voice in longevity medicine and preventative health, breaks down what modern longevity science actually supports and what the industry often gets wrong. From over-optimizing biomarkers to chasing endless data, this conversation cuts through the noise to reveal what truly drives long-term health, resilience, and quality of life.
This is a grounded, science-led discussion about longevity without obsession and why the goal isn’t more years, but better ones.
He explains:
◻️ Why most longevity strategies focus on the wrong outcomes
◻️ The difference between lifespan, healthspan, and performance over time
◻️ How over-tracking and biohacking can quietly backfire
◻️ What longevity medicine actually looks for before disease appears
◻️ Why “more data” doesn’t always mean better health decisions
◻️ How to think about aging as a system not a problem to hack
◻️ What high performers misunderstand about longevity and control
◻️ The principles that matter most for long-term resilience
◻️ How to approach longevity with clarity instead of anxiety
