Day 1 at the CALM 2026 Conference and we are officially lit up ✨

From deep dives into real-world case studies to nuanced conversations around cardiometabolic risk and the responsible, strategic use of AI in clinical practice — today was a powerful reminder that longevity medicine is evolving fast… and the clinical application matters more than ever.

A few key themes that stood out:

🔬 Case-Based Learning: Translating complex biomarker data into personalized, actionable care plans — not just optimizing numbers, but optimizing people.
❤️ Cardiometabolic Health: Advanced risk stratification, inflammation mapping, metabolic flexibility, and earlier intervention strategies to truly shift long-term outcomes.
🤖 AI in Medicine: Not as a replacement for physicians — but as a precision tool to enhance pattern recognition, improve efficiency, and support better decision-making at scale.

We love seeing how these innovations move beyond theory and into practice — how we apply emerging science to help patients extend not just lifespan, but healthspan.

Grateful to be in rooms where prevention, performance, and precision medicine are the focus.

Looking forward to Day 2 and continuing to sharpen the tools we bring back to our patients.

Another year at the Integrative Health Symposium in New York — and another reminder that medicine should never stand still.

At Boulder Longevity Institute, two of the powerhouses of our practice — Dr. Elizabeth Yurth and Dr. Abid Husain — spent the weekend doing something that defines how we care for patients: learning together.

Not staying in one niche. Not defending one “school of thought." Not assuming we already know the answer.

From traditional medicine to integrative cardiology, peptides, cellular health, nutrition science, and the most current longevity research, the takeaway was clear: real healing happens when you connect disciplines — and when you have the humility to admit there’s always more to learn.

That humility might be the most important trait in modern medicine.
In this recap, they share why stepping outside of your comfort zone, listening to opposing perspectives, and constantly refining your approach is the only way to truly advance patient care and functional medicine.

Because staying curious isn’t optional in longevity medicine — it’s a responsibility.

Our very own Dr. Yurth loves eggs.

In fact, if she had to choose one food to eat every single day, it might be eggs.

But the calorie-conscious egg white trend? It may be defeating the purpose.

The real nutritional power isn’t in the whites — it’s in the yolk. That’s where you’ll find choline, fat-soluble vitamins, and many of the nutrients that support brain health, liver function, cellular membranes, and longevity.

Choline deficiency is far more common than most people realize. And eggs are one of the richest, most bioavailable sources available.
This isn’t about eating recklessly. It’s about understanding nutrient density over calorie fear.

Before you toss the yolks, you may want to hear this conversation.

Another episode of Doing Things with David… but this time we’re kicking off 2026 the right way.

What will David be doing to start the year with a longevity bang?
To absolutely no one’s surprise — we’re dialing in the basics.

Not a shiny new biohack.
Not a 14-step protocol.
Not a panic cleanse.

We’re talking: consistent, intelligent exercise, intentional, nutrient-dense nutrition, and above all… gut health (because everything flows from there)

Before we optimize the edges, we strengthen the foundation.
Longevity isn’t built in a week — it’s built in daily habits that compound over time.

Stay tuned as each member of the BLI team shares their 2026 longevity goals. In the meantime — what’s ONE thing you’re focusing on this year to upgrade your health?

Protein is one of the most underestimated longevity tools we have, and who better to explain why than the kind of protein himself. Zach explains why adequate protein intake—roughly 1 to 1.5 grams per pound of body weight—is so important, especially as we age.

Protein isn’t just about building muscle for the gym. It’s foundational for preserving muscle mass, supporting bone density, and maintaining strength, balance, and resilience over time.

Muscle and bone don’t exist in isolation. Strong muscle helps protect bone, reduce fracture risk, and support overall metabolic health—and protein is the raw material that makes all of that possible.

And yes… we promise we’re working on our camera presence 😅
But in the meantime, teamwork makes the dream work!

If there is one myth is intent on busting, it’s the claim that GLP-1 medications is that they cause muscle loss.

Let’s clear that up, because that is not what the science shows. What we often see instead? People on GLP’s are eating less and drinking less—especially water.

Dehydration can make muscle look smaller, feel weaker, and recover more slowly. Pair that with low protein intake and reduced resistance training, and muscle loss gets blamed on the drug when it’s really a behavioral side effect, not a pharmacologic one.

So to rewrite the narrative is our “muscle loss-proof” to do list of you’re on a GLP-1:
✔️ Prioritize protein
✔️ Lift something heavy
✔️ Hydrate like it’s part of the prescription

We’re back in the new year and kicking things off with a longevity protocol that actually fits into real life—walking.

Between juggling workouts, nutrition goals, sleep routines, and all those New Year’s resolutions, walking is the underrated habit that checks more boxes than people realize. Whether it’s a brisk speed walk away from an impending threat 🐝 (that bee had fangs and bloodthirsty eyes… we swear) or a calm post-meal stroll to support digestion, walking is simple, scalable, and powerful.

In this post, Kristin breaks down why walking is one of the easiest longevity hacks—supporting metabolic health, cardiovascular function, digestion, stress regulation, and overall consistency. No equipment. No barrier to entry. Just movement your body was designed to do.

If you’re looking for a place to start (or restart) this year—start here. 🚶‍♀️
Sometimes the most effective longevity tools are also the most manageable.

Ever wondered what your physician’s actual daily supplement routine looks like?

We’re recapping another highlight from Dr. Yurth and Dr. Husain’s conversation with —where our favorite cardiologist pulls back the curtain on his own daily supplement stack. The takeaway? No extremes, no overload—just a commitment to the fundamentals done well.

Sometimes the most effective longevity strategy isn’t adding more…it’s sticking with the basics.

There’s so much noise in the longevity and optimization space right now—and not all of it deserves to come with us into the next year.

So we asked Dr. Elizabeth Yurth and Dr. Abid Husain one simple question: What longevity myths should be left in 2025?

From oversimplified supplement advice to outdated ideas about hormones, inflammation, and aging, we break down which beliefs are holding people back—and what the science actually supports when it comes to long-term health, resilience, and performance. Longevity isn’t about chasing trends or extremes. It’s about understanding context, biology, and what truly moves the needle.

Here’s to clearer thinking, better science, and leaving these myths out of 2026.

What longevity myth do you hope we retire next?

Cheers to 2026 from the BLI Team

As we step into a new year, each member of our team has chosen their own unique Longevity Resolution—from strengthening the heart and brain through regenerative medicine to simply just getting bit more sleep.

But in 2026, our collective goal remains clear:
- Optimize before disease
- Restore function, not just manage symptoms
- Prioritize healthspan just as much as lifespan

Together, we’re committed to advancing proactive, personalized care and helping our community age stronger, think clearer, move better, and live longer—by design, not by chance.

🥂 Happy New Year from all of us at BLI!

Now it’s your turn 👇

The entire Boulder Longevity Institute team had the chance to come together for the A4M Longevity Fest 2025, and it was nothing short of incredible. From start to finish, it was energizing to step out of the clinic, connect as a team, and immerse ourselves in the future of longevity and regenerative medicine.

This year’s conference was packed with conversations around advanced cardiovascular risk assessment, regenerative therapies, metabolic health, hormone optimization, inflammation, and precision diagnostics—along with hands-on workshops and panels led by some of the most respected voices in longevity medicine.

Our biggest takeaway? The field continues to move toward earlier detection, personalized interventions, and proactive optimization—and we’re bringing that momentum straight back to the clinic. From refining how we assess risk to expanding how we think about prevention, recovery, and long-term performance, this experience reinforced our commitment to staying at the forefront of evidence-based longevity care.

Here’s to the final month of the year—and to kicking off 2026 equipped with everything we’ve learned across 2025 in longevity and regenerative medicine. We can’t wait to put it into practice.
