171 The Longevity Advantage and How to Live a 100 Year Life | Dr Tom Buckley

You don’t drift into longevity. You build it...or you erode it. Most people think living longer is about genetics or luck. The data says otherwise. Where you live matters. But what you do daily matters more.

Mental Skills Coach, Andrew May, and Longevity Rsearcher Dr Tom Buckley break down what actually determines how long and how well you live.

From blue zones to biological age, from the pivotal impact of your 40s to the supplements Dr Tom genuinely backs, this is a sharp look at the habits that add years or quietly take them away. If you care about staying sharp, capable and competitive for decades to come — this one matters.

1:30 What is longevity and premature mortality?

6:15 The idea of blue zones around the world and how genetics can impact your lifespan.

17:00 Why what you do in your 40s can have such a massive impact on the rest of your life and how you’re still able to turn it around even if you were unhealthy beforehand.

22:30 Some of the long term effects drugs can have on your brain and methods to add years back on to your life.

29:00 How the 6 MatchFit levers fit into longevity and which supplements will help your long term health.

35:30 The main supplements Dr Tom gets his clients to take.

40:00 What is biological age vs chronological age, and why is having a low biological age so important?

45:00 How what you eat and drink can add or take years off your life.
