The world’s largest prize: interview with @peterdiamandis and Jamie Justice
Want a chance to win part of a $101 million prize pot? All you need to do is restore an older person’s function by 10+ years and you could be in with a chance of winning the new XPRIZE Healthspan! I spoke to two of the project leads, Peter H. Diamandis and Jamie Justice, to find out whether we really can move the needle on this, why they made this a prize rather than just handing $101 million to longevity scientists, why more billionaires aren’t doing this, and, most importantly…why one hundred and one million dollars?
Thanks to Peter and Jamie, and @xprize for making this video possible!

Why I disagree with @PeterAttiaMD
Переглядів 14 тис.6 місяців тому
Could @PeterAttiaMD live to 150? He recently told his podcast audience he’s bored of ‘sci-fi’ portrayals of ageing biology-and so am I!-but here’s why I think Peter living to 150 years old is not sci-fi…it just requires far greater investment in longevity research. To be clear, I still think it’s far from certain that Peter will hit the big 120-but I think he’s missing something important when ...

    I am using W3W to tell people the location of trees. Readings on my phone tell me the GPS inaccuracy. This can be 10s of meters. If the tree is in a street I use the initial reading to go to the web site and use the street view to more accurately pinpoint the centre of the tree. If the tree is in a wood I can't pick out a particular tree from the large green area so the W3W is less useful, but it is still useful. Obviously any system will be limited by GPS accuaracy.

    An interesting connection to taurine is that the blue zones studies found every group to eat a high amount of beans. Beans are high in taurine. Although seaweed is higher and easier to supplement with. Unfortunately the studies author keeps saying it’s just a plant based diet which doesn’t track otherwise vegetarians would have a solid track record of long life.

    All I can say is that my Apple Watch has potentially saved my life- twice. It’s informed me about severe AF that I suffer from, twice. As for steps: my wife has a Fitbit, (which she hates) and when we walk the distance and steps are incredibly accurate between my Apple Watch and her FitBit. She’s had three fitbits, first two failed during warranty- absolutely appalling reliability. She now wants an Apple Watch, only disadvantage being reduced battery life. When her FitBit inevitably dies again, that’s what we will get.

    Mine seems reasonably accurate. Had a hernia Op 7 weeks ago. They hooked me up to all the machines and suddenly alarms started going off. My heart rate was showing 43, about right for what my watch shows. Although it leapt to almost 50 when all the alarms started going off, until they explained why. Once I told them I was an ultra runner they were fine.

    The Federal government has no incentive to increase fund research into extending life span. The treatments sound too expensive for an already over-extended Medicare and even now life spans may be too long be able to support Social Security for the existing, increasing elderly population. There may not be an active conspiracy around this, but it's certainly in the backs of some policy maker's minds.

    • @DrAndrewSteele
      @DrAndrewSteele 4 дні тому

      We should tell them the good news: these treatments will probably save money! Slowing aging would delay diseases like cancer and dementia which are hugely expensive to treat, and have large wider economic costs too. I suspect you’re right that it’s ignorance rather than conspiracy, which hopefully means we’ve got the opportunity to change a few minds! :)

    You can check your resting heart rate during the day by stopping for a bit and checking. You can’t check your watch during the night, or during your absolute resting heart rate, so that’s why you should get that reading.

      @@DrAndrewSteele the thumbs down indicate my attitude to statins. There is enough evidence RCT's + epidemiological to question the efficacy of statins. Plus there is the level of injury. I suffered muscle weakness balance problems for years before my suggested dropping statins. I have not taken them again. The Japanese study measures ACM vs cholesterol level. Lower cholesterol = higher mortality.

      This video has just gone mildly viral a couple of years after I actually did the tests… I think software updates have fixed this for Apple now (though the fact that on such an expensive and accurate watch you have to manually enable sleep tracking and specify the time blows my mind a bit! Not an Apple Watch owner, have I understood that correctly? I need to borrow one again or buy my own to run a few more tests. :) )

  • @Kruperfone
    @Kruperfone 7 днів тому

    My apple watch was warning me about low heart rate while I'm asleep. I was pretty concerned and consult with my doctor, did some measurements, wore a cardiologist device measuring me for 3 days while logging everything what happens to me. Everything was fine. Later it showed around 40 beats during the day, while I was actively talking and obviously didn't have that low numbers. I'm happy for people who got important warning in time, but for me it gave only anxiety 😢

  • @Real28
    @Real28 7 днів тому

    This is the complete wrong way to look at any of this data. These sensors are all pretty basic, on every watch. So are they inaccurate? Yes. But you made an entire video on it, which tells me you and others _miss the entire point_ The point is looking at the _trends_ over time. Did my RHR go down? Up? Did changes I make to my lifestyle like more sleep or exercise change my RHR? That's how you're supposed to measure and use the data. You'll need much better equipment for an accurate reading. But that ISNT necessary for trending data. All you need is a starting point and then data over time to look at changes _over time_ . If it's off by 5 or 10% doesn't matter for 90% of the analytics we would need from one of these watches.

    Just like a power meter on a bicycle. Your data is only comparable to your own equipment no on else's. You can see overall trends. If you have a same device for 3-5 years it far more useful to look at trends you and device has. These companies have a disclaimer, these are not medical devices. If you suspect you have a health issue you seek out a doctor.

  • @michaelkulman7095
    @michaelkulman7095 7 днів тому

    People want to obsess over these things but dividing things up by quartiles or quintiles, of any of these metrics, is about the highest level of exactitude you can really expect or put some stock in. I've read that resting heart rate can be genetically low or high but a change toward lower can be an indicator of fitness. Drastic changes should be run by a doctor though as it can go down or up for non-fitness related reasons. Comparisons between individuals may not work even though people want to do that so bad! It may be an internally consistent metric though. So many want it to be an externally consistent metric. It isn't at this level of testing/measuring. This is a lot like bodyfat testing. You might actually have a 3% drop but you might not really know your actual bodyfat percentage with the same accuracy as your estimation of drop. It's still useful to compare yourself to yourself but less good to compare yourself to others which is what so many want. I'm suggesting that might be something to deemphasize and for more than one reason.
