131: Matt Kaeberlein - Aging, mTOR, Epigenetic Clocks, and more!
About this episode
What if aging isn't just inevitable—but modifiable? In this episode of Longevity Roadmap, Dr. Matt Kaeberlein breaks down the science of biological aging, with a focus on mTOR, epigenetics, and the hallmarks of aging like cellular senescence, mitochondrial dysfunction, and epigenetic drift.
He explores the role of genetics vs. environment, the promise and pitfalls of metformin, NAD boosters, and senolytics, and why interventions like rapamycin and caloric restriction may extend health span. From the limitations of biological age tests to the importance of lean muscle mass, this conversation is a masterclass in evidence-based longevity research.
Watch the full episode to understand the mechanisms of aging—and what current science says about slowing them down.
