Ep.07 / Dr Mike Roizen, Chief Wellness Officer, The Cleveland Clinic

Pioneering the Quest for Longevity:

Dr. Roizen is certified in Internal Medicine and Anesthesiology, and a self confessed science nerd. He served as Cleveland Clinic’s first Chief Wellness Officer, and founding Chair of its Wellness Institute. Dr. Roizen is devoted to helping people live younger, and he developed the RealAge Test as well as helping start 13 companies, and co-invented a drug approved by the FDA.

If that isn’t impressive enough, he has authored over 190 peer reviewed scientific publications, four New York Times #1 best sellers, 9 overall bestsellers including his initial #1 Bestseller in 5 countries, “RealAge: Are You As Young As You Can Be?”, “AgeProof—Living Longer without breaking a hip or running out of money” and his latest book, “What To Eat When: A Strategic Plan To Improve Your Health and Life through Food”. And he has a weekly podcast now in its 930+ week, a recipient of an Emmy, an Elle, and the Paul Rogers best medical communicator award from the National Library of Medicine.

He is currently working on an AI longevity app to help motivate proactive healthcare through technology enabled coaching and behavior change incentives.

This conversation included:

• Find purpose in life from a young age

• Navigating medicine to find his passion

• Biological vs chronological age with the Real Age concept

• Longevity and the potential for scientific breakthroughs making "90 the new 40’

• Top recommendations for overall well-being: ‘Posse, Purpose, and Play’

• Ways to create behavior change and finding an individuals motivator

• Views on medical advancements

Dr Roizen is professionally jealous of one of his longtime collaborators, Dr Oz for his work ethic, prolific output and dedication to educating the world about health related topics.
