<p>Slowing the process of aging is something many people are interested in—and there’s a lot of pseudoscience out there about how to do it. Eric Topol is a cardiologist at Scripps and a prolific researcher on the genetics of longevity. In this episode, Eric debunks some common myths about how to live a longer life and shares his surprising findings about what actually determines a person’s lifespan and healthspan. Adam inquires about the efficacy of health supplements, and he and Eric discuss steps for preventing diseases, the role of AI in medicine, and effective practices for living a longer, healthier life.</p><br><p><strong>Host & Guest</strong></p><p>Adam Grant (Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/adamgrant/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@adamgrant</a> | LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/adammgrant" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@adammgrant</a> | Website: <a href="https://adamgrant.net/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://adamgrant.net/</a>)</p><p>Eric Topol (Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/erictopol1/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@erictopol1</a> | Website: <a href="https://drerictopol.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://drerictopol.com/</a>) </p><br><p><strong>Links</strong></p><p>Books:<strong> </strong><a href="https://drerictopol.com/books/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://drerictopol.com/books/</a></p><p>Substack: <a href="https://erictopol.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://erictopol.substack.com/</a></p><br><p><strong>Follow TED! </strong></p><p>X:<a href="https://www.twitter.com/TEDTalks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.twitter.com/TEDTalks</a></p><p>Instagram:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/ted" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.instagram.com/ted</a></p><p>Facebook:<a href="https://facebook.com/TED" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://facebook.com/TED</a></p><p>LinkedIn:<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/ted-conferences" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.linkedin.com/company/ted-conferences</a></p><p>TikTok:<a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@tedtoks%C2%A0" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.tiktok.com/@tedtoks </a></p><p>Podcasts:<a href="https://www.ted.com/podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.ted.com/podcasts</a></p><p>For the full text transcript, visit<a href="http://go.ted.com/BHTranscripts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> </a><a href="http://ted.com/podcasts/rethinking-with-adam-grant-transcripts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ted.com/podcasts/rethinking-with-adam-grant-transcripts</a></p><br><p><em>ReThinking is produced by </em><a href="https://www.cosmicstandard.fm/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Cosmic Standard</em></a><em>.
