Chris Mirabile is the founder and CEO of Novos, the first human longevity company to simultaneously address the 12 mechanisms of aging - the biological causes of aging which Chris explains very well - through its innovative patent-pending over-the-counter formulations.  With that in mind, during the conversation around aging, they also covered what aging has historically been, becoming decrepit with failing health, and what it could possibly be like if we took everything we've learned about it and made intentional choices to age differently.  Chris also shares with us the story of why he became so interested in ageing (he had a brain tumour as a kid), he tells us all about the fancy term “antagonistic pleiotropy” (a fancy way of explaining how our genes age), and what ageing really is (it’s not just wrinkles). Chris explains how we would coach someone who is interested in longevity differently from someone who is interested in gaining muscle mass, and how the USA is one of the only countries in the world that has reduced its health span while increasing its lifespan.  This episode is very fun and exciting. Even if you don’t coach anyone who is worried about ageing or longevity (at the moment, anyway) we know you'll enjoy it.
