Hamburg · 28 October
In an Art Nouveau villa in Rotherbaum, Prof. Maria Lerm shared how environment, lifestyle and experiences leave measurable marks on our biology 🧬 Afterwards we stayed for Q&A, light food and networking.

I’ve done 16:8 since I was 17. Mostly because skipping breakfast was easier than making it.
Then we looked at 24 trials. Fasting helped with weight loss, but barely beat a regular diet. Does it extend life?
Here’s what we found.
Only 54% of US adults now say they drink alcohol, the lowest in Gallup's nearly 90-year trend. Health concerns are rising as research questions moderate drinking.
Data: Gallup, U.S. Drinking Rate at New Low as Alcohol Concerns Surge #HealthyAging
New York · 30 October
The Longevity New York community gathered at Le Pain Quotidien by Columbus Circle for coffee, breakfast and good conversation before the workday took over ☕ Longtime members and first-timers swapped notes on what they're trying and met new faces over the menu.

People in one sleep apnea trial averaged a breathing interruption almost every minute, all night. Lilly's experimental weight-loss jab retatrutide cut that far more than placebo. Surprisingly good sleep apnea news, from the weight-loss aisle 🙂
Measured: breathing interruptions per hour in the sleep lab, after about a year and a half. 9 mg: down 34.3/h. Placebo: down 9.9. Catch: Lilly paid, nobody has shown fewer heart problems yet, and you can't buy it. FDA filing planned for early 2027.
Odd detail: the top dose didn't beat the middle one on average (could easily be noise). In people with type 2 diabetes the effect was smaller, but still clearly better than placebo. The paper (NEJM): nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…
Weirdest study or "experiment" that I've read today.
Baking soda beat placebo by 32 seconds in a running study.
The placebo was table salt, and honestly, I love how boring the winner is. Did anyone ever tried it?
What is the actual pathway behind it?

Miami · 5 November
Upcoming: Eudēmonia Summit brings four prevention-focused, science-based days to West Palm Beach (Nov 5–8) with Tom Brady, Andrew Huberman, Stacy Sims and more. Between sessions there is breathwork, cold therapy, cryo, PEMF and resistance training, so it feels less like a conference and more like a retreat 🌴

Obesity in young adults shows up in cancer data,
just a lot quieter than a headline would make it
sound. Worth knowing, not a reason to panic, and it's a link, not proof that weight caused it. #Cancer #weightgain

Coffee at LITTLE LITTLE, music from DJ STRING and a Saturday morning together. Our Coffee Rave brought the community around the decks and the coffee bar ☕🎶
