120 Years: The Natural Limit of Human Life – Dr. Valter Longo I Talks 21

What if living to 110 in good health depends less on drugs and more on how we eat, move, and rest?

In this episode of Talks 21, I sit down with Dr. Valter Longo, professor and director of the USC Longevity Institute in Los Angeles, leader of the Aging and Longevity program at the IFOM Oncology Institute in Milan, and the scientist behind the fasting-mimicking diet. His book The Longevity Diet has been translated into around 30 languages.

In this episode, we discuss:
🔹 Why, according to Valter, we may soon see two very different groups: one group reaching their mid-70s with chronic disease, another reaching 100 to 110 through nutrition, fasting, movement, and sleep.
🔹 Why Valter believes 120 to 130 is the natural limit of human life, and what would need to change to go beyond it.
🔹 Why 12 hours of daily eating may be healthier than the popular 16-hour fast, and what happens to metabolism when we push fasting too far.
🔹 Valter's take on protein, supplements, and why "natural" does not automatically mean "good for you".
