They do a deep dive into Glucose, Iron, Vitamin D; Gil talks about blood biomarkers optimal vs normal levels and range and how our current doctors and healthcare system define normal; they touch upon Epigenetics and how understanding your DNA and blood can impact your health and fitness goals; and of course Gil sheds light on the workouts and wellness routines that fuel him for success.

Dr. Gil Blander went on to study at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel, getting his Ph.D. in Biology. In 2002 he moved to Boston area to join MIT for postgraduate studies of aging, joining legendary Dr. Lenny Guarente’s lab where he met Dr. David Sinclair, also on the podcast. After studying at Lenny’s lab for several years, he then joined the private sector, launching InsideTracker.
