ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week, we look at HallPass, the new candy brand betting it can deliver the full indulgence experience with just 70 calories and 1g of sugar. Then we dig into the far murkier side of longevity: Chara Health, where experimental stem-cell treatments can cost nearly $20,000 despite major questions around evidence and regulation.
Finally, we look at the $101 million XPRIZE Healthspan competition, where teams are being challenged to prove they can make older adults function meaningfully younger — using approaches ranging from gene therapy to mitochondrial rejuvenation.
Three stories, one big question: can we engineer better health — and actually prove it works?
