The Longevity Summit 2026: Free Online Event for Healthy Aging and Wellness

The Longevity Summit 2026: Free Online Event for Healthy Aging and Healthspan

Free Online Summit

Longevity advice can quickly become a maze of fasting rules, supplements, metabolic theories, anti-aging claims, and conflicting recommendations about what actually deserves your attention.

This free online event brings together physicians, researchers, nutrition experts, and healthy-aging educators to explore fasting, metabolic health, cellular aging, brain health, sleep, hormones, cardiovascular health, inflammation, and nutrition through a practical educational lens.

Joseph Antoun, MD, PhD, MPP, and David Jockers, DNM, DC, MS, host a wide-ranging expert lineup that includes voices in fasting research, neurology, cardiology, diabetes, functional medicine, women’s health, nutrition, and longevity science.

You can follow the subjects most relevant to you rather than treating every longevity strategy as equally important. Use the summit to better understand the ideas being discussed, identify useful questions, and decide what deserves further consideration with the appropriate health professionals.

Free registration through a DrTalks account with no credit card required.

Why Attend The Longevity Summit

The Longevity Summit hosted by Joseph Antoun and David Jockers

Healthy aging is often presented as an endless list of interventions, leaving people unsure whether to focus on fasting, blood sugar, sleep, nutrition, exercise, supplements, inflammation, hormones, or something else entirely. This summit gives you a structured way to hear several perspectives and compare how different experts think about longevity.

The program extends well beyond one dietary philosophy. Sessions explore fasting and fasting-mimicking approaches alongside brain health, metabolic flexibility, cellular processes, sleep and circadian rhythm, women’s midlife health, cardiovascular considerations, inflammation, nutrition, and other factors connected with aging well.

The most useful outcome is not adopting every strategy you hear. It is developing a clearer understanding of the questions worth asking, the habits that may deserve attention, and the ideas that should be evaluated in light of your individual health needs and professional medical guidance.

Who Should Attend The Longevity Summit

This summit is designed for adults who want to better understand the science, clinical thinking, and lifestyle strategies being discussed in the longevity field. It may be especially useful if you are interested in fasting but want to place it within the broader context of metabolism, sleep, brain health, hormones, nutrition, and cardiovascular wellbeing.

The sessions are educational rather than individualized medical care. Anyone taking medication, managing a chronic condition, pregnant or breastfeeding, underweight, experiencing an eating disorder, or considering extended fasting should discuss appropriate approaches with a qualified healthcare professional.

  • Adults interested in healthy aging and maintaining long-term function
  • People curious about intermittent fasting and fasting-mimicking approaches
  • Anyone exploring blood sugar, insulin sensitivity, and metabolic flexibility
  • People interested in brain health and cognitive aging
  • Women looking for educational perspectives on menopause and midlife metabolism
  • Those interested in sleep, circadian rhythm, inflammation, and cellular health
  • People exploring cardiovascular and nutrition priorities for healthy aging
  • Practitioners, coaches, caregivers, and educators seeking a broad longevity overview

What You’ll Learn During The Longevity Summit

The summit uses fasting and metabolic health as major entry points into the broader question of how lifestyle influences aging. You’ll hear discussions about fasting windows, fasting-mimicking diets, blood sugar, nutrient sensing, cellular recycling, nutrition, and metabolic flexibility.

Other sessions widen the lens to areas such as brain and neurological health, sleep and circadian rhythm, menopause, cardiovascular health, inflammation, muscle preservation, nutrition, and lifestyle factors associated with resilience as people age.

Because individual responses and medical circumstances differ, the goal is to understand the concepts rather than assume that every protocol is appropriate for everyone. Use what you learn to ask better questions and make informed decisions with qualified professionals when personal medical guidance is needed.

Here’s just a little bit of what you’ll learn:
  • What happens physiologically during different periods of fasting
  • How experts think about fasting windows and metabolic flexibility
  • What to consider when choosing foods before a fast
  • How hydration and electrolytes fit into fasting discussions
  • Why autophagy and mTOR appear frequently in longevity research
  • How fasting-mimicking diets differ from complete fasting
  • How blood sugar regulation connects with metabolic health
  • Ways nutrition and lifestyle may influence brain and cognitive health
  • How sleep, light exposure, and circadian rhythm connect with healthy aging
  • Why menopause, hormones, inflammation, and cardiovascular health deserve individualized consideration

Tell the Science From the Marketing: Fasting, Metabolism and Healthy Aging

The summit places fasting within a larger conversation about metabolic and cellular health. Rather than treating longevity as a single supplement, test, diet, or biohack, the sessions examine several biological systems and lifestyle factors that may influence how people function as they age.

Fasting-related sessions explore subjects such as nutrient timing, fasting windows, fasting-mimicking diets, autophagy, mTOR, blood sugar, and metabolic flexibility. Other experts address brain health, sleep, cardiovascular considerations, menopause, inflammation, nutrition, and the practical realities of applying health information.

This wider perspective can help you separate an interesting biological mechanism from a personal medical recommendation. A promising research topic may still require context, individual risk assessment, and clinical guidance before it becomes an appropriate action for you.

  • Understand the difference between a biological mechanism and a guaranteed outcome
  • Compare several expert perspectives instead of relying on one longevity theory
  • Look for connections among metabolism, sleep, nutrition, hormones, and brain health
  • Bring relevant questions to your healthcare team before making significant changes

How to Get the Most From The Longevity Summit

A summit with dozens of experts can become another form of information overload if every presentation feels equally urgent. A better approach is to choose a few questions you genuinely want to understand and build your viewing plan around them.

Use the summit as education rather than a checklist of protocols. Take notes on ideas that seem relevant, then separate actions you can safely try on your own from decisions that belong in a conversation with a qualified healthcare professional.

1. Choose Two or Three Priority Themes

Start with areas such as metabolic health, brain health, sleep, menopause, cardiovascular health, or fasting. A focused path makes it easier to compare several perspectives on the same issue.

2. Separate Mechanisms From Recommendations

  • Write down the biological concept being discussed
  • Note what evidence or clinical reasoning the speaker uses
  • Avoid assuming that an interesting mechanism automatically makes a protocol appropriate for you

3. Keep a Question List

If a session raises questions about medications, fasting duration, blood sugar, hormones, chronic disease, supplements, or major dietary changes, save those questions for the professional who knows your health history.

4. Use the Downloadable Guides as References

The six bonus resources cover several summit themes and can help you revisit concepts without trying to retain everything from the presentations at once.

5. Choose Sustainable Follow-Through

  • Identify one subject you want to understand more deeply
  • Choose one low-risk habit that fits your existing care plan
  • Bring higher-risk or condition-specific ideas to your healthcare professional
