David Sinclair's Co-Founder on Protein and Foods That Age You | Serena Poon

Serena Poon is on the podcast today, and I asked her the question I ask every longevity expert: will we ever be able to reverse our skin age? Her answer gave me chills (her team is already doing it in the lab).

We get into the tests she wants every woman in her 30s and 40s to ask for, why she thinks we're all hyper-fixating on protein, and the one thing she'd start at 40 so your older self thanks you. Also, she eats fries every time she travels. No guilt. I loved this one.

We talk about:
✨ The tests to ask your doctor for in your 30s and 40s, and why perimenopause can start years before you feel it
✨ Protein maxing, GLP-1s and muscle loss, and why she worries about your kidneys
✨ The foods that age you faster, her sugar swaps, and her perfect day of eating
✨ Rapid fire: breakfast, coffee vs matcha, alcohol, CGMs, cold plunge, sauna and 10,000 steps
