Summary

Harvard geneticist David Sinclair tells Lewis Howes why comfort might be the biggest threat to a long life, revealing how cold, fasting, and controlled stress trigger the body's own anti-aging defenses. From calorie-restricted mice that stay young for years to Lewis's own freezing mountain hike, this conversation shows why getting a little uncomfortable on purpose could add decades to your life.
