A new Stanford study analyzed the biological age of 11 organs. The brain was the strongest predictor of mortality.

Researchers built aging clocks for the heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, muscles, and immune system… but none of them predicted lifespan as accurately as the brain.

People whose brains were “older” than their chronological age had a much higher risk of death even when the rest of their organs looked healthy. Because the brain controls almost everything that keeps you alive - metabolic stability, inflammation, memory, autonomic function, mood, movement, hormones, and cardiovascular regulation.

When the brain ages faster, the whole system ages with it. When the brain stays young, you do too.

Protect your brain: sleep deeply, lift weights, challenge your mind, manage stress, stabilize blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and stay connected to people you love. Do it for your longevity.

GLP-1s are a cornerstone of my practice - from body recomposition to reducing inflammation to stabilizing metabolic pathways and the reduction of visceral fat.

But peptides don’t stop there.

Regenerative peptides like BPC-157, CJC-1295/Ipamorelin, and MOTS-C work at the cellular level to accelerate recovery, enhance muscle growth, support mitochondrial function, reduce oxidative stress, promote deeper sleep, and optimize performance.

During The Longevity Advantage panel for LA I asked her favorites - watch until the end to hear which ones she chose and why.

What does the future of longevity hold?

Peptides. EBOO. Stem cells. Mitochondrial transplants. transplants, senolytics, AI biomarkers, etc. the frontier keeps expanding.

But foundation of health optimization is evergreen. Sleep. Nutrition. Mindfulness. Connection. Movement.

Everything else in longevity is just layered on top.

Everyone’s tracking their sleep, but what do those numbers really mean?

At The Longevity Advantage during LA Tech Week I asked .md of what actually matters in your sleep data.

If you’re a founder, executive, an investor, or a high performer - you need to hear this. Share this with someone who obsessively tracks their sleep.

What’s CoQ10, and should you take it?
Longevity doctors from the East Coast and from the West Coast break it down.

CoQ10 fuels your mitochondria, drops with age, AND gets depleted by statins.

So is it worth the hype? Drop your thoughts below 👇

Most people think of a DEXA scan as just a bone density test. I call it a financial audit of your health - muscle and bone are your assets, and fat is your liability.

A DEXA scan really shows:
- Whether “normal” weight on the scale is hiding poor muscle-to-fat balance
- How much of your weight loss is muscle vs. fat (crucial for anyone on GLP-1s)
- Visceral fat levels, one of the strongest predictors of chronic disease

DEXA gives you what the scale can’t, and is ideal for tracking trends over time that strongly correlate to longevity.

You know EXACTLY who needs to hear this. Send this post to them.

From my recent feature in - thanks for writing this informative piece!
