2977: The 5 Things That Actually Add Years to Your Life — With Dr. Stephen Cabral

Dr. Stephen Cabral returns to break down five lifestyle factors that Harvard research shows add an average of 12 years to a man's life and 14 years to a woman's. The conversation covers smoking, alcohol, body composition, exercise, and a high-quality whole food diet. It also examines ApoE genetic variation, BMI and waist-hip ratio as mortality predictors, GLP-1 medication concerns, and evidence on supplements including omega-3, vitamin D3, and nattokinase. The episode emphasizes inexpensive, foundational habits over expensive biohacking.
