Longevity Beyond Biohacking: Dr. Jeff Gladden on Exponential Aging, Purpose, and Health Optimization - Part 1

Dr. S introduces a podcast series on longevity and interviews Dr. Jeffrey Gladden, a cardiologist-turned-longevity physician and founder of Gladden Longevity in Dallas. Gladden describes how, despite being told his labs were “normal for his age,” he experienced weight gain, fatigue, anxiety, brain fog, and depression in his 50s and felt conventional medicine offered only sick care. After a two-and-a-half-year functional and integrative medicine deep dive, he identified subclinical hypothyroidism, genetic thyroid conversion issues, hormonal depletion, and neurotransmitter challenges, and found targeted therapies plus meditation helped him recover. He explains aging is biologically exponential and outlines his five-circle systems approach—life energy (psychospiritual), longevity (hallmarks of aging), health, performance, and environments—guided by questions like “How good can I be?” and “How do we live young for a lifetime?”
