#197: How to Live Longer & Stronger: The Science of Early Disease Detection with Dr Steven Lu

How to take charge of your health, build muscle, and prevent disease — for life. What if you could detect disease years before symptoms appear? 👀 In this powerful chat with longevity doctor and Everlab Co-Founder Dr Steven Lu, we uncover how early testing, data-driven prevention and lifestyle tweaks can help you live longer, stronger and healthier – without the overwhelm. From the rise of cancer in younger Aussies, to the secrets behind better sleep, stronger muscles and lower inflammation… this episode will completely change how you think about health 💚     This episode is a must-listen if you care about your health now and for decades to come 💚 I'm joined by one of Australia's most forward-thinking doctors, Dr Steven Lu – Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer of Everlab, a pioneering longevity and preventative health clinic changing how we think about medicine. In this chat, he shares what we can each do today to take control of our long-term health and longevity. 💡 In this episode, we chat about: ✅ Steven's story – and why he left ICU to focus on preventative, data-driven healthcare. ✅ The 5 biggest killers today (and how early testing can prevent most of them). ✅ The unique, personalised tests used at Everlab to detect disease risk before symptoms appear. ✅ The importance of individualised data, DEXA scans, and understanding your own health metrics like you would your bank balance. ✅ The scary rise of cancer in younger Australians and why it's no longer just an "older person's" problem. ✅ The environmental and lifestyle shifts are likely driving this increase. ✅ The true causes behind poor sleep – and Steven's 3-2-1 method to finally get a good night's rest. ✅ How your genes can affect sleep, bone density and muscle – and why "what runs in the family" might sometimes just be shared habits. ✅ Why banking muscle early in life is one of the best investments for longevity (and how strength training can even help reverse diabetes). ✅ Can more muscle really reduce your risk of Alzheimer's? Steven explains how it might. ✅ The link between gut health, malabsorption and slow progress with muscle gain or body composition goals. ✅ Visceral fat: why it increases for women around menopause and how inflammation, sleep and stress all play a role. ✅ The power of whole foods, fibre and anti-inflammatory eating for reducing bowel cancer risk and supporting long-term health. ✅ Why biohacking tools (like red light and saunas) are add-ons – not replacements – for the foundations of health.   You'll walk away feeling empowered, not fearful — ready to take charge of your own data, your habits, and your health future 🙌     Links Mentioned: Learn more about Dr Steven and his work at everlab.com.au Follow Everlab on Instagram: Click HERE Download my FREE eBook with Four 15 Minute Dinners: Click HERE Start your weight loss, gut-healing, and anti-inflammatory journey now with my 3 Week Body Reset Continue your journey and make it sustainable by figuring out YOUR own balance in the Health with Bec Tribe Click HERE for all of my favourite products I've been talking about in recent episodes!
