Episode 594: Dr. Jonathan Schoeff: Biohacking for Longevity: What Works, What's Overhyped, and What Matters

Paglalarawan

You can spend a lot of money trying to optimize your health and still miss the things that make the biggest difference. The wellness industry keeps giving us new treatments, tests, and biohacks to chase, but expensive does not automatically mean effective. We dive deeper into this in Habits & Hustle with Dr. Jonathan Schoeff. We talk about which longevity trends are actually worth your attention, where people may be wasting their money, and why strength, sleep, and metabolic health still do more heavy lifting than many of the latest wellness trends. Jonathan is a practicing surgeon and longevity physician who works with high performers on health optimization. He looks at wellness through both a clinical and performance lens, which makes him especially good at cutting through claims that sound impressive but do not have much evidence behind them. His approach is simple: look at the data, understand the outcome you are trying to improve, and stop confusing good marketing with good medicine.
