Escape Your Limits: How to Cheat Death

On this week’s episode of the Escape Your Limits podcast, we are joined by Dr. Rand McClain, aka ‘The Longevity Doctor’ to explore whether death is predetermined by genetics or whether we can make informed lifestyle choices that extend health span and override the influence of our genes.

Dr. McClain earned his medical degree at Western University and completed his internship at the University of Southern California’s Keck School of Medicine Residency Program (U.S.C. California Hospital) and has spent his professional life redefining what it means to be in optimal health. Having established his own practice, Regenerative and Sports Medicine Dr. McClain supports his patients (many of which are A-List celebrities and world-class athletes) through the application of cutting edge treatments and philosophies including bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), hyperbaric oxygen therapy, cryotherapy, platelet rich plasma and stem cell therapies.

In his recent book, ‘Cheating Death: The New Science of Living Longer and Better’, Dr. McClain reveals fresh, science-backed approach to genetics, natural aging, and proactive medical treatments and discusses how to access to these therapies to jumpstart their body’s regenerative processes. Bolstered with research and recovery stories from real people, Cheating Death gives readers the tools to live healthier, longer lives. In this podcast, Dr. McClain talks extensively about:

  • Fitness trends and nutrition principles past and present.
  • Biological age versus Chronological age.
  • Key bio markers for predicting healthy longevity.
  • Anti-aging supplements.
  • The effect of NAD on energy and sleep.
  • Poly phenols and their role in fighting inflammation and cancer.
  • Sleep hygiene habits.
  • Cold Therapy and heat shock proteins to boost health.
  • Air quality’s impact on health.
  • Testosterone replacement therapy. Debunking myths.
  • Fasting and its effects on cortisol.
  • The role of genetics and emerging tech in a long and healthy life.

Dr Rand McClain Discusses Age As A Biomarker For Healthcare

Dr Rand McClain is a key figure in the world of longevity therapies and innovative antiaging solutions. However, he is also keen to convey that he is not just a doctor – he’s also a patient. In his new book, McClain details how his past health battles do not define his healthspan or longevity, encouraging his readers to adopt the same mindset.

McClain’s new book Cheating Death: The New Science of Living Longer and Better is out on 7 March, and in it, McClain reveals his strategies for longevity and discusses what the future of regenerative medicine holds. These topics are right in our sweet spot, so we were delighted to sit down with Dr McClain to find out more.

Testosterone, Hormone Therapy, and Peptides for Health and Longevity with Dr. Rand McClain

Today’s episode is all about hormones, peptides, and innovative treatments with my special guest, Dr. Rand McClain. Dr. Rand reveals the importance of testosterone, its effects on your body, and how to manage them. We also examine menopause vs. MANopause, the diagnosis and treatment of hormonal deficiencies, and questions from our community. Finally, we delve into the science of peptides!

From being the youngest senior account manager in Deloitte’s history, to his stint as a professional kickboxer in Argentina, to being accepted to medical school at age 37 after being repeatedly told it was impossible, Dr. Rand has never been a fan of the “status quo”.

Dr. Rand’s patients (many of which are A-List celebrities and world-class athletes) come to his practice in search of the innovative treatments he specializes in.
