Can we actually reverse aging — or are we asking the wrong question?

In this episode of A Healthy Point of View Podcast, Sam Tejada sits down once again with Chris Mirabile, founder of NOVOS, for a science-driven conversation about longevity, healthspan, supplements, biomarkers, lifestyle, and what the research really supports.

Chris explains why extending human lifespan is not yet scientifically proven, while improving healthspan and reducing individual health risks may be far more realistic today. He and Sam break down why sleep, exercise, nutrition, stress management, community, and everyday decisions still outperform many expensive biohacking tools.

They also explore the growing obsession with health data, alcohol and recovery, VO2 max, DEXA scans, bone density, visceral fat, nutrient inadequacies, the hallmarks of aging, bioavailability, and why more supplements do not automatically mean better results.

Chris also shares the research process behind NOVOS Core, including animal studies and a recent placebo-controlled human study examining cardiovascular function. He discusses what makes rigorous clinical research different from marketing claims — and why longevity products should be judged by evidence, not hype.

This conversation is a reminder that longevity is not about chasing every new device or supplement. It starts with understanding your body, making better decisions consistently, and using science to guide — not control — your health.
