What if aging wasn’t just something that happens to us, but something science could actually slow down? That’s the question at the heart of today’s conversation with Dr. Matt Kaeberlein, who’s a leading scientist and longevity researcher at the University of Washington.Dr. Kaeberlein has spent decades decoding the biology of aging, from cellular mechanisms to practical strategies that could extend not just how long we live, but how well we live. In this episode, we talked about surprising connections between aging and brain health, and looked into the research around lithium and Alzheimer’s to see what the latest science is telling us about extending healthspan.It is an informative discussion on whether aging itself can be slowed or reversed.
