Longevity & AgingSteve Horvath Reveals Which Daily Habits Actually Slow Your Biological Clock
Dr. Steve Horvath, the scientist who pioneered epigenetic aging clocks, joins FoundMyFitness to explain how biological age is measured and which lifestyle factors move the needle most. He walks through the differences between clocks like GrimAge, PhenoAge, and DunedinPACE, explaining what each actually predicts—from mortality risk to aging speed. Horvath highlights that omega-3 supplementation, a daily multivitamin, and consistent vegetable intake show the strongest evidence for slowing epigenetic aging. He also addresses calorie restriction, GLP-1 drugs, exercise dose, sleep, and social connection. Perhaps most importantly, he cautions that reversing a biological age score doesn't automatically translate to more years of life, and that no single intervention can stop aging. The conversation closes with Horvath's own personal longevity routine and a look at partial cellular reprogramming as a future frontier.
