For Lifeforce co-founder Joel Jackson, being able to show up for his family is the foundation of his wellness goals. The entrepreneur and tech executive was inspired to co-found Lifeforce after embarking on his own health journey to prevent a diabetes diagnosis that runs in his family. Now, he’s committed to optimizing his healthspan so he can enjoy life with his daughter for years to come. Specifically, he hopes to be able to backpack with her when she’s in her 30s and he’s in his 70s. “What’s happening behind the scenes is a continually advancing set of AI tools combined with talented clinicians. What that means is not only do members get 30-45 minutes with their provider, but each of those minutes is more impactful.” We sat down with Joel to learn why tech is the future of preventive healthcare, what his biomarkers tell him as a performance-driven dad, and how Lifeforce is putting those life-changing tools in your hands right now.

Train smarter, not just harder. Robbie Balenger has always been in it for the long run. In his 30s, he went from running successful restaurants, to running marathons, to running across the United States. Now at 39, the pro endurance athlete and ultrarunner is running back his greatest challenge yet. Starting August 18, Balenger will be competing in Leadville 100, a grueling, high-altitude 100-mile race through extreme Rocky Mountain terrain. Balenger also has a new goal propelling him forward — living longer and stronger for his family. While longevity wasn’t on Balenger’s radar previously, his priorities have shifted now that he and his wife are expecting their first child. We sat down with Balenger to hear more about his running journey, how he maintains mental resilience, and the tools that are helping him go the distance.

You’ve probably heard about the dangers of inflammation. You definitely know about the perils and pitfalls of aging. But what about when you combine the two? You get “inflammaging,” a new term that refers to an age-old process — the chronic, low-grade inflammation that often occurs with aging. Emerging research shows that inflammaging may increase our risk for chronic disease and be the reason we’re more likely to develop health conditions as we get older. According to Lifeforce Senior Health Coach Kristen Alexander, “controlling inflammation through anti-inflammatory lifestyle habits may be one of the most impactful ways to promote healthy aging.” Our experts explain exactly what inflammation is, why it increases over time, and how we can get ahead of inflammaging starting right now. ⤵️
