The Science Of Longevity: Mitochondrial Health, NAD+, & Aging Well

In an era where longevity and anti-aging advice are everywhere, it can be difficult to separate meaningful science from marketing hype. What actually works when it comes to living longer, feeling better, and maintaining peak performance as we age? In this episode, Michael Linares joins the podcast to share his insights… Michael is the CEO of Longevity Farms, a wellness company dedicated to helping people optimize performance, recovery, and long-term health. Through evidence-based supplementation, education, and a focus on cellular wellness, Michael and his team aim to help individuals improve their energy, resilience, and overall quality of life as they age. Hit play to learn more about: The "holy grail" of longevity optimization. Why mitochondrial health plays a critical role in healthy aging. The connection between cellular energy production and overall wellness. How to boost NAD, and why it matters.  Michael's passion for longevity was shaped by more than 15 years of experience as a personal trainer and nurse educator, where he developed an interest in human physiology and the science of aging. Inspired by conversations with his brother Joe Linares, a firefighter-paramedic and fitness enthusiast, he began exploring emerging research on longevity and the biological processes that influence how we age.
