Where the Experts Disagree
Even the best longevity researchers don't agree. We map where consensus exists and where it doesn't, so you can make informed decisions.
Why top longevity experts disagree
Different evidence thresholdsSome experts require large RCTs in humans; others extrapolate from animal models and mechanistic data when the intervention's risk profile is low.
Conflicts of interestSeveral experts have financial stakes in the compounds they recommend. We note this where relevant — it doesn't make them wrong, but it's worth knowing.
Individual variationMany disagreements are actually about population averages vs. individual response. What works for one person's genetics, age, and health status may not work for another.
