Longevity isn’t luck; it’s data, discipline, and daily tracking. Dr. Michael Lustgarten shows us what it really takes to measure, master, and extend human healthspan through science and self-experimentation.


Dr. Lustgarten has spent two decades turning his body into a living lab. With over 35 published papers, a TED Talk on personalized health, and his book Microbial Burden, he’s on a mission to quantify everything from diet and biomarkers to blood chemistry and gut health.


We discuss why real longevity starts with mastering the basics: diet, exercise, and lean body composition, and how testing, tracking, and AI-driven analysis are changing what’s possible for human lifespan. He opens up about his personal story, how a book by Dr. Roy Walford changed his life, and why he believes conquering aging is both a philosophy and a data challenge.


"I'm either gonna figure this stuff out and the world will see how smart I think I am, or I'm gonna die trying." - Dr. Michael Lustgarten

"Live Life Beyond the spiritual concept PodPoint The material world we live in is not of a natural origin though it is natural. Humanity sustains its existence by this natural world and this constitutes the limitation of mankind to his senses. But there is more to what we can see, hear, taste, smell and feel, it is a sphere of the spiritual where all of natural existence came from.Any man who gets a revelation of deep spiritual things come into an understanding of how to function from the spiritual standpoint where he controls natural events by the Spirit of the Lord. The prophets of old such as Elijah, Elisha, Daniel and a host of others walked this path to achieve the things they achieved. Even Jesus came to show us this way when He walked on water and calmed storms."THE SPIRITUAL CONCEPT" is a channel dedicated to exploring spiritual revelations by the word and Spirit of God so that we can live above and beyond the limitations of the flesh and of the devil.You can add me on Facebook with David Kum or send an email to kumdavid7
