Breakthroughs in Aging Research | Dr. Eric Verdin, 2024 Longevity Summit | Aviv Clinics

Eric Verdin, MD, is the president and CEO of the Buck Institute for Research on Aging; a professor at the Leonard Davis School of Gerontology at the University of Southern California; and a professor at the University of California, San Francisco.

Dr. Verdin joined Dr. Amir Hadanny, Dr. Nir Barzilai, Dr. Michael Roizen and Dr. Joseph Maroon for the 2024 Global Aging Consortium Longevity Summit in The Villages, FL.

Dr. Verdin discusses several breakthroughs, including:
- How we can change our own personal rate of aging
- Aging is the largest risk factor for non-communicable diseases
- The need for healthcare to be reinvented as proactive care, not just sick care
- The relative unimportance of our genetics to how well we age

Watch to learn about research that is working to redefine aging, testing of pharmaceuticals approved to delay the aging process, and the five pillars of healthy aging (plus how you can implement them into your daily life).

Whoever videotapes these presentations should imagine they are in a Graduate School Class where the Professor is talking about a presentation that is also being shown on an overhead projector. It's vitally important to see what is being shown as the Professor talks. This means that it's vitally important that the information on the overhead projector be clearly shown in this video. It's more important than watching the Professor because you don't need to see the Professor in order to hear what he is saying. One way to tape this video would be to focus on Mr. Verdin as he is introduced, then move to the projector slides most of the time with occasional views of Mr. Verdin. An alternative way of doing the video would be for one person to tape what is on the overhead projector and another person tape what the Professor is doing. Then, during editing, place both videos side by side with the overhead projector data taking most of the screen. The data on the screen should be seen most of the time and should be easily readable to the viewer.

Thank you, Dr. Eric Vergin. Great summit

This was a really refreshing talk, explaining what we can currently do to maximize our health span and lifespan. And I was glad he didn't go into too many supplements and things that still have not been proven out.

[kentam]

The point is living like a responsible human: eat right, rest more, exercise regularly, socialize, minimize stresses, skip the drugs. Things that are within your reach and control.

[robertportersr]

Would like to see the info that he talks about so I can take notes…not seeing the info is very disruptive!

26:35 French fries! That's the secret to living longer! ❤🎉😊

[claudemontes]

One or two glasses a week on special occasions in moderation. If alcohol is not good, why in moderation?

[antoniobortoni]

Delay aging, who wants to live longer, its make you young again, make you better, stronger, more muscle mass, more sex drive, more mental clarity, better sleep...

I have learned that by taking Magnesium Glycinate and Liposomal Vitamin C helps build up my immune system and allows all the other Mico and Macro nutrients to work.

Is correcting dietary deficiencies proven to increase healthspan. I remember a study that corrected vitamin A deficiency and caused increased mortality.

C15 is high in butter. Haven't found the difference between ghee and butter.

[JohnnyMagorish]

If you’re referencing breakthroughs like these you may as well include the discovery of penicillin

[jakobw]

Isn't alcohol lipolytic, and antibacterial-viral? That's good and beneficial!

What do you say to Doctors Michael Greger, Neil Barnard, Joel Kahn and others, who have shown that while the Mediterranean diet is beneficial - the vegan one is better?!

[rareword]

The desire not to die, or the fear of death, is so powerful in human beings that they are ready to believe anything that claims to make the body's absurd immortality possible.

[elbowroom]

And to suggest that partaking of a vegetarian or completely plant-based diet as some sort of absolutism is simply a meaningless polemic.

[y.g.]

5th longevity intervention is not drugs, it's vitamins/ supplements. How moronic not to understand that? LOL.

[VISTAClinicMelbourne]

Respectfully disagree- look at Meditarean phenomenon- they do everything opposite and live well and long.
USA obsessed with such advices have much more health issues.

[Crazydude]

Oh well, this guy thinks living to 150 or 200 is nonsense, I'm guessing the dream is over for the super longevity believers 😢

[elbowroom]

Fish, the most polluted food on the planet. It is utter nonsense to keep eating fish, Dr. Verdin.
