Habits and Hustle

Habits and Hustle helps share the stories, habits, and rituals of people’s journeys on living fulfilled lives. Host Jennifer Cohen interviews thought leaders, entrepreneurs, and overall extraordinary people who share their insight and open up about the normally hidden aspects that have made a difference in their success.

GLP-1s are the fastest growing drug trend in health right now. But a 30-year fasting study says there’s something every user needs to know before their next dose.

Dr. Valter Longo has spent 30 years studying aging and longevity at USC, running over 40 clinical trials on what actually makes people live longer and healthier. What he found challenges almost everything the wellness industry is pushing right now, from 16-hour fasting windows to high-protein diets to GLP-1 drugs.

In this episode of Habits and Hustle, Dr. Longo breaks down the science behind the Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD), why 12 hours of fasting beats 16, and what centenarians around the world actually eat. He also shares his latest research on cancer, Alzheimer’s, and why your body already has the tools to heal itself if you stop getting in its way.

It’s time to ask the right questions about the hottest longevity trends that are costing people more than helping them.
