ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
What happens when we get the right answer to the wrong question? In this episode of Adding Years, Josie sits down with Dr. Jordan Shlain, physician, healthcare entrepreneur, and founder and chairman of Private Medical. Together, they explore:
• How to separate credible longevity science from a compelling sales pitch
• Why smart, successful people still fall for health and longevity hype
• Peptides, stem cells, exosomes, and interventions ahead of the evidence
• Why foundational health behaviors continue to matter
• Whether we’re measuring our health simply because we can
• When optimization creates more anxiety than benefit
• The difference between processing medical information and practicing medicine
• Where AI can strengthen healthcare—and where human judgment remains essential
• Why asking the right question may matter more than finding a fast answer
As Dr. Shlain explains, data does not interpret itself. The meaning of any number, test, or recommendation depends on the person, the context, and the question we are actually trying to answer. Are we using technology to make better health decisions—or are we simply finding more things to optimize?
