Episode 6: The Science Of Aging with Dr. Morgan Levine

Your Lifestyle Is Your Medicine

Epigenetics is the study of how your behaviors and environment can cause changes that affect the way your genes work. These changes are reversible and do not change your DNA sequence, but they can modify how your body reads a DNA sequence.
During development, the DNA that makes up our genes accumulates chemical marks that determine how much or little of the genes are expressed. Every environmental influence, such as children’s experiences, affects the expression of genes.
In today’s show, I interview Dr. Morgan Levine, a professor at Yale with a research background in epigenetics and aging. Together we explore DNA clocks, things that can predict our biological age, which is different from our chronological age, and diverse ways to reverse them. We also get into the future of anti-aging, which can be things like plasma transfusions, gene editing, and a whole of topics I had never heard of.
Join us to learn how biotechnology is trying to add healthspan to our lifespan.
