Can We Avoid Death? Biological Age and the Importance of Health

We are the first generation that won't die.

What do you mean? We are the first generation who will not die.

Like, die as in, like, actually? That's right.

So you don't plan on dying? That's right.

How old realistically do you think you can live until?

I'm chronologically 47, but biologically, you know, my cardiovascular ability is age 18.

My lung capacity is age 18. My telomeres, my end of chromosomes, are age 18.

So my body functions in many ways like an 18-year-old.

So when you start measuring the biological age of your body, it's very different than the time at which you were born.

So that's what I wish I would have learned.

Typically, people perform very well in their youth.

There's skill sets, there's physical ability, mental ability, emotional ability...

...that peaks typically in like early life stages...

...and then it declines with older stages, especially that's true if you're grinding very hard.

And so this is why I say making health your top priority...

...because if you do so, you're going to be in peak performance.

Like, the difference between being healthy and non-healthy when you're thinking is like night and day.
