Medical Interventions (TRT, HGH, Stem Cells, etc.) For Longevity | Lifespan w Dr. David Sinclair #5

- Welcome to the Lifespan podcast where we discuss the science of aging and how to be healthier at any stage of life. I'm David Sinclair, I'm a professor of genetics at Harvard Medical School and I'm co-director of the Paul F. Glenn Center for Biology of Aging Research. This podcast series is about why we age

and why we may not have to. Things you can do today and going forward to increase your wellness and to potentially live a much longer healthier life. We've talked about the biology of aging, we've talked about things that you can do at home, preferably under the supervision of your doctor, and today, we're going to talk about things

that you definitely will be talking to and requiring a doctor's supervision to do, and even things that your doctor is unable to do, but potentially in the future may be able to. I'm joined today by my co-host and my co-author, the lovely Matthew LaPlante. Hey Matt. - Hey. We're back. We're doing it again.

- We are definitely doing it. Today, we're doing a deep dive into some, you know, somewhat controversial stuff. - This is a scary episode. - Well, I don't know if it's scary, but we have to do a disclaimer, I think. We have to say that what we're going to talk about today, a lot of it isn't approved by the FDA,

but maybe in the future, and some things that were available until recently, and were banned by the FDA, and currently available only off shore. - And just as was the case when we had the conversation about drugs and supplements, and maybe even more so in this case, there's a lot of misinformation out there

about a lot of things that we're going to be talking about today, these potential avenues for addressing longevity. We're going to try to cut through that, but we are not doctors of the physician type. - That's right. I'm a PhD in genetics, I'm not a physician. And so the things we've talked about in this series
