Biologist and genetics expert Dr. David Sinclair is out to prove he can live past 100 years old, and he thinks you can too. On this episode Sinclair goes in-depth on the process of aging and the techniques you can incorporate into your life that help you live a longer, healthier life, including optimizing your diet, the benefits of exercise, the role of a positive attitude, the importance of sleep, the three supplements he takes every day, why it’s never too late to slow the process of aging, and so much more.
Dr. Sinclair is a professor of genetics and co-director of the Paul F. Glenn Center for Biology of Aging Research at Harvard Medical School, and he is best known for his research on aging, with a focus on epigenetics. He’s been called one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World by Time, and in 2019 he released the New York Times bestselling book, Lifespan: Why We Age – and Why We Don't Have To.

David is a humble and compassionate scientist...though his achievements are great. His personal traumatic experience with losing his mother shows his human side. I read his book lifespan...brilliant! I am on omad, metformin 2G, niacin, quercetin, veg diet no diary no alcohol 40 min walks....I feel great at 61!. I have never felt better even at 30! More power to you Dr David Sinclair! Medicine plus technology is going to revolutionize how we live longer and healthier....

It fascinates me that you and many others talking about longevity are young, 40's 50's t most. I am 80 and often wonder what you will be saying in 10 or 20 years. True I was fortunate to receive the longevity genes, I have brothers who are 84 and 85 and quite healthy too, but there must be other factors at work that you are not detecting.

I'm happy Sinclair admits his sleep habits are not optimal, its the same as me. Many nights i don't even sleep, i know it's bad, but this is reality. I worry too much and need to change it. But i never wear jackets, even not when its below minus 10°C and i am much younger looking than my brother and cousins who are bald grey already for years

Life expectancy is the average length of life of a group of individuals. The way to increase this is to get more individuals to live longer than the current average than die sooner. One way to do this is to persuade the members of the group to eat a healthy diet in moderation and to get regular exercise. I have been watching Dr. Sinclair's interview and bought his book “Why We Age and Why We Don’t Have To” very eye-opening and educative. In there, there's no point increasing lifespan without health span. The goal should be to live longer while staying young and healthy. Sinclair believes that in the foreseeable future, it's possible for humans to live beyond 120 or even 150, without the frailty, diseases and disability we now associate with old age. I hate aging and the illnesses it brings over time. NMN Vitruvin Health is the most cost-effective brand for me.

I have always slept few hours even though I never do caffeine. I began taking NMN in the morning and immediately felt a jolt like caffeine. Now I can not sleep longer than 4 hours. I want more sleep.

Regarding sleep, the Yogi Sadghuru says rest is essential, but distinguishes between rest and sleep. Most people do not know how to rest without sleeping though. I have noticed that when doing certain kinds of breath work, I need less sleep.

Iv now listed to several podcasts like this to living your best health with longevity in mind. However, all you scientist drs do mention in your videos that a good protein diet, resistance exercising, good sleep, meditate, de stressing and positive attitudes contribute to this.
What I’m still confused about is that one Dr says that the carnivore diets supersede the plant protein diets. Tho Dr Sinclair discourages carnivore as not good at all for longevity. Why is this so controversial. Thank you. Great interview

My 98 year old Mom sleeps 12 hours every night. She was always napping when I was a little girl. She said even as a child she would sleep until noon on weekends. Friends would come to play and her mother said .. Florence is still sleeping... Maybe she has a lot of melatonin in her system??? By the way she will be 99 this October!! She had covid a few months ago and did well!! Actually better than me... I found the NMN and Transreservatol saved me from long covid. Wish I took it during the acute phase .. Also chaga mushroom..game changer...stops cytokine storm which happens with Covid!! Chaga also kills cancer!!

Interesting about eating less protein increases life yet being strong with a good amount of lean muscle mass is also linked to increase life expectancy. I'm confused now! Is it simply animal protein that should be minimised?

For longevity: maintain muscle strength by exercise and getting the required and essential amino acids. The easiest and most bang for your buck is eating meat, optimally not factory raised.

He looks more sickly everytime I see him. Totally invalidates the point of a PHD if he ignores the big things like bioavailability of protein sources, quality of fat soluble vitamins and fatty acids while ignoring oxalates phytates and lectins in plant foods. I will easily outlive this well meaning fool, but not before his terrible advice ruins tens of thousands of lives.

Prof.Sinclair, please do not fast too much as you will become thin. Your face muscles seem to be reduced, not appearing tight but appear to be slightly hanging that will soon make you to appear older. The face of the interviewer is looking much healthier than yours. We must find an antiaging solution by eating 3 times food per day with out any fasting.

Where from obtain healthy fish? and plants which are available contain little or no nutrients nowadays. It is impossible to think that Okinawa diet is longevity unless you look at other aspects of these people's lives. They do not sit 8hrs in an office, or spend 4hr in a car.

Well, interestingly, Sinclair doesn't look very healthy. His skin doesn't glow, he seems weak, it really feels like he doesn't have a lot of testosterone... So what the point to live longer like that?
