Ep.16 | Beyond Weight Loss: Epigenetic Age, Muscle Preservation & The Future of Performance Medicine

In this episode of the Longevity Game Podcast, Michael Ward discusses the evolving landscape of longevity medicine, emphasizing the importance of muscle, mitochondria, and metabolic health. He explores the significance of epigenetic age, the role of resistance training, and the impact of wearable technology on health monitoring. The conversation also highlights the importance of protein intake and introduces the peptide GHKCU, discussing its benefits and limitations. The episode concludes with key takeaways on optimizing health and longevity.Takeaways-Losing weight alone may not equate to better health.-Muscle is recognized as a longevity organ.-Epigenetic age can be modified through lifestyle changes.-Resistance training is crucial for maintaining muscle mass.-Wearable technology can help track health metrics effectively.-Mitochondria play a vital role in metabolic health.-Protein intake is essential for muscle protein synthesis.-Zone two cardio is beneficial for fat loss and endurance.-Peptides can support health but should not replace lifestyle changes.-Health span is as important as lifespan.
