In this episode of Metabolic Mastery, Dr. Marc Humbert and Dr. Cameron Garber sit down with Tony Orlando, founder of Dexa Plus and DexaScan.com, to unpack why DEXA scans are becoming one of the top longevity markers.

They explore how DEXA goes far beyond a simple "body fat test," revealing bone density, muscle distribution, and visceral fat levels that directly impact long-term health, performance, and fracture risk. Tony explains why waiting until insurance finally covers a scan at age 65 or 70 is often too late, and how early, recurring testing—paired with VO₂ max and RMR—can completely change the trajectory of your health.

The conversation also dives into GLP-1 medications, hidden muscle and bone loss, youth osteopenia, and how to choose a provider who doesn't just hand you a report, but actually gives you a plan.
