Longevity Medicine: Hacks, Hype, and What Actually Works - with Hillary Lin, MD at Stanford and Elevate X Health (Longevity Series)
Manage episode 468798456 series 3648092
In our first episode, we explore the rapidly growing field of Longevity Medicine—a proactive approach to health that goes beyond the traditional 'sick care' system. Longevity Medicine focuses on extending both healthspan (living in good health for longer) and lifespan (living longer), while emphasizing disease prevention.
We break down the different components of longevity medicine, separating the science from hype, and discuss how anyone—regardless of their starting point—can navigate their own longevity journey.
Joining us is Hilary Lin MD, a Stanford-trained longevity physician and serial entrepreneur. Dr. Lin is the Founder of Livora Health and Co-Founder & CEO of Elevate X Health, two companies at the forefront of longevity medicine. She is also an Aspen Health Fellow and an Advisor to Stanford Alumni Startups NY and Cornell BioVenture eLab.
