Emerging research suggests that lifestyle factors including exercise, nutrition, and heat exposure may influence the cellular pathways that drive aging. getty

Can human aging be slowed or even reversed? On a recent episode of the Huberman Lab podcast, Stanford neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman sat down with Harvard geneticist Dr. David Sinclair to unpack what the science says about the mechanisms of slowing aging and interventions that may help us stay healthier longer. The discussion covered many topics, from epigenetics and mitochondria to caloric restriction, exercise, sauna use and experimental approaches to cellular “rejuvenation.”

Here are six key takeaways from the conversation and what they mean for patients.

Aging may be driven by cellular information loss, not just wear
