It turns out we need each-other. Coming together for meals is the single most powerful health and longevity practice you can add to your life according to my guest Shawn Stevenson.

The science is here. We can now acurately track biological age with specific testing and are learning about the interventions that can actually REVERSE AGE. Ryan smith is the founder of the lab that's in the trenches doing the work. They just finished a huge study with Harvard and Yale and, after crunching the data, he visited with Dr Shojai.

Alexander Linn is saving lives by helping people keep their homes safe. Are you at risk of losing your health or your wealth?  Dr Pedram Shojai explores the world of wellness in one's home with an innovator and founder of Shipshape.ai.

Dr Shojai dives into the science to inner perception and how we need to feel safe for our bodies to heal, recover and thrive.

Pedram is joined by Dr Sara Szal (formerly Gottfried) in a super fun reunion of "The Health Bridge" which was a show they cohosted for several years which was often the top health podcast on the charts. They talk about the toxic bro culture of biohackers and how that advice is often terrible for women of any age. They talk about SAFETY as a prerequistive for healing and much much more.
