The Immortal Field of Longevity in Men’s Health – Summary
Jesse N. Mills, MD, discusses longevity, an evolving field in men’s health. Dr. Mills begins by framing longevity within the broader context of men’s health, emphasizing that longevity is not merely about extending lifespan but enhancing the quality of life.
Dr. Mills explores the key factors contributing to longevity, including testosterone management, cardiovascular health, and mental well-being. He discusses many popular anti-aging therapies that, once only used by professional athletes, have become more common, such as saunas, cold plunges, and hyperbaric oxygen chambers. Moreover, Dr. Mills discusses pharmaceuticals that improve longevity, including semaglutides, metformin, and testosterone.
He also discusses the critical importance of cardiovascular health, noting that many of the same factors that contribute to heart disease—such as diet, exercise, and stress management—are also essential for promoting longevity. He also delves into the psychological aspects of longevity, arguing that addressing issues such as depression, anxiety, and social isolation is crucial.
