The Truth About Longevity

What actually works for men and women

Men and women age differently. So why does the longevity industry sell everyone the same supplements?

The session

Most longevity advice ignores a basic fact: what helps a 45-year-old man may do nothing for, or even harm, a woman the same age going through perimenopause. Yet the market keeps selling one-size-fits-all protocols wrapped in expensive promises.

Dr Hisham Badaruddin opened our first season by cutting through the supplements, trendy protocols and pseudoscience. He set out what the research actually shows about extending healthspan, why men and women need different approaches at different life stages, and which popular interventions are marketing dressed up as science.

What we covered
  • The key biological differences in how men and women age
  • Why hormone optimisation means something completely different for each sex
  • Which longevity interventions have solid evidence, and which are hype
  • The three factors that matter most for healthspan, all of them free
  • How to judge whether a supplement or treatment is worth your money
  • The health markers men and women should track at different ages
