What if the number on your birth certificate had nothing to do with how your body actually performs? At 79, Dr. Jeff Bland is living proof. Known as the father of functional medicine, Dr. Bland carries the biological markers of someone decades younger, including the testosterone levels of a 30-year-old and a biologic age that challenges everything most people believe about getting older. And the science behind how he got there is something everyone deserves to know.
In this special episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, Dr. Mark Hyman sits down with Dr. Bland for a conversation that reframes the aging story entirely. Together, they break down the difference between biological and chronological age, the role of mitochondrial health, and why the immune system is the most overlooked driver of how fast the body ages.
You'll hear the science behind Immuno-Rejuvenation™, how polyphenols and tartary buckwheat activate the body's own healing systems, and why food remains the most powerful tool for changing how you age from the inside out. This is the kind of conversation that could change how you think about every year ahead.
