S7E16 – Dr Ravi Iyer

In this episode of the "Get Your FILL" podcast, host Christine McCarron (age 62) welcomes Dr. Ravi Iyer, a 67-year-old Harvard-trained physician and longevity expert running a clinic in Virginia. Dr. Iyer, also known for his viral TEDx talks (including the most viewed of 2024 with millions of views on intentional focus), discusses groundbreaking advances in regenerative medicine and longevity. He emphasizes that while birth and death are fixed, the quality of life in between—functionality—is highly modifiable. Most people experience a long decline after age 40, but modern approaches can help maintain high function (75-90%+) until a sharp drop at the end, ideally dying peacefully in sleep rather than a prolonged decline.
