Can fasting support longevity without compromising the muscle we need to age well? And how do we separate meaningful nutrition science from the promises of the next wellness trend? On this episode of Everything Is Personal, Len May sits down with Renee Fitton, Longevity Dietitian and Director of Education at L-Nutra, the company behind ProLon and L-Nutra Health, for a conversation about fasting, nutrition, and the pursuit of a longer, healthier life. Renee brings a personal perspective to that pursuit. Once determined to become a doctor, her experiences in traditional medicine and international volunteering led her to rethink where she could make the greatest difference. That search took her into graduate studies in longevity nutrition—and a career helping people understand how everyday choices fit into the bigger picture of aging well. Together, Len and Renee explore fasting-mimicking protocols, the questions surrounding fasting and muscle preservation, and why healthspan deserves as much attention as lifespan. Throughout the conversation, they examine the challenge of translating complex science into practical decisions about how we eat and care for ourselves. With experience guiding thousands of people through fasting-mimicking programs and leading education for a network of nearly 20,000 healthcare practitioners, Renee offers a perspective shaped by both nutrition science and the people trying to put it into practice. A conversation about living longer, staying strong, and making those extra years count.

What happens when a physician realizes that the medical system he was trained in doesn’t always have the answers—especially when the patient is someone he loves? In this episode of *Everything Is Personal*, Len May sits down with **Dr. Aaron Hartman**, physician, clinical researcher, and founder of Richmond Integrative & Functional Medicine, for a wide-ranging conversation about functional medicine, chronic illness, personalized care, clinical research, and the experiences that reshaped the way he practices medicine. Dr. Hartman’s path became deeply personal when his daughter faced complex health challenges that pushed him to look beyond conventional approaches and explore the connections between genetics, nutrition, inflammation, environment, lifestyle, and individual biology. That experience changed the way he viewed medicine. Aaron and Len discuss why two patients with the same diagnosis can respond very differently to the same treatment, what decades of clinical research have taught him about the limits of standardized care, and why understanding the whole patient can reveal answers that isolated symptoms often cannot. They also explore the growing role of precision medicine, the relationship between gut health, metabolism, inflammation, and brain function, and how nutrition, sleep, stress, movement, and environmental exposures can influence long-term health. The conversation also gets into the tension between conventional medicine and functional medicine, where each approach can be valuable, and why the future of healthcare may depend less on choosing one side and more on combining the best available science with a deeper understanding of the individual. At its core, this episode asks a simple but important question: **Are we treating a diagnosis, or are we treating a person?** EndoDNA: Where Genetic Science Meets Actionable Patient Care EndoDNA bridges the gap between complex genomics and patient wellness.

What happens when the business you spent years building becomes deeply tied to your identity, your purpose and your vision — and then it doesn’t go the way you planned? In this episode of **Everything Is Personal**, Len May sits down with entrepreneur **Michael Steinmetz** for a candid conversation about entrepreneurship, cannabis, resilience, reinvention and the emotional reality of starting over. Michael shares his journey from engineering into the cannabis industry, the creation and rapid growth of **Flow Kana**, and what it was like building an ambitious company in one of the most unpredictable and rapidly changing industries in America. But this conversation goes far beyond business. Michael and Len explore what happens when a founder’s mission becomes personal, how success and failure can reshape identity, and why losing something you believed in can force you to ask a much bigger question: **Who are you when the thing you built is no longer the thing defining you?** They also discuss the importance of adaptability, the lessons that only setbacks can teach, and why entrepreneurship often requires the ability to let go of the original plan in order to discover what comes next. This is a conversation about building, losing, learning and beginning again — and why sometimes the end of one vision is the beginning of a more meaningful chapter.

The Truth About Supplements, Longevity & What You’re Really Putting in Your Body | Carl Pradelli The supplement industry is filled with massive promises. More energy. Better sleep. Sharper thinking. Less inflammation. Slower aging. A longer life. But how much of it is actually backed by science—and how much is simply great marketing? In this episode of Everything Is Personal, Len May sits down with Carl Pradelli, Co-Founder and CEO of NatureCity, for a candid conversation about the business and science of nutritional supplements, longevity, healthy aging, consumer trust, and what people should really understand before deciding what to put into their bodies. Carl and his wife Beth co-founded NatureCity in 2002 with a simple idea: create supplements they would actually feel comfortable taking themselves and giving to their families. More than two decades later, Carl has built an extensive network of scientists, ingredient suppliers and manufacturers while overseeing product development and digging deeply into the research behind nutritional ingredients. And that experience has taught him something important: The biggest number on the label doesn’t necessarily mean the best product. The newest ingredient isn’t automatically the most effective. And “longevity” on a bottle doesn’t mean it’s going to help you live longer. Carl and Len go inside an industry that consumers often find confusing and overwhelming. They discuss how supplement companies choose ingredients, why formulation and sourcing matter, what separates meaningful human research from marketing claims, and why dosage alone can be misleading. Carl explains how factors such as ingredient quality, standardization, absorption and delivery can matter just as much—or more—than the milligram number printed on a bottle. The conversation also tackles one of the hottest topics in health today: longevity. Everyone seems to be looking for the next molecule, compound or biohack that could extend lifespan. Carl takes a more grounded view. Healthy aging isn’t about finding one miracle supplement. It involves multiple interconnected systems—including cardiovascular health, brain health, metabolic function, oxidative stress, inflammation, immune function, nutrition, movement and lifestyle. That leads to a bigger question: Are we spending too much money chasing the newest longevity trend while ignoring the fundamentals that have decades of evidence behind them? Carl and Len also explore the responsibility that comes with selling products people use to improve their health. NatureCity has built its current positioning around ingredients supported by scientific research, transparency around formulations, and a company philosophy Carl describes simply: “If we won’t take it, we don’t make it.” But the conversation doesn’t stop at products. This is also the story of entrepreneurship. Carl talks about building NatureCity from the ground up, working alongside his wife, navigating more than two decades of change in the wellness industry, and learning how to balance scientific evidence, business realities, consumer expectations and personal responsibility. Len and Carl get into the uncomfortable questions too. How do consumers know whom to trust? When does wellness marketing cross the line? How much evidence should exist before a company makes a health claim? Does expensive necessarily mean better? Are trendy longevity supplements actually worth the money? And when the science changes, should companies be willing to change their position too? Carl’s own experience offers an interesting perspective because he has watched the supplement industry evolve from something relatively niche into a massive part of mainstream health and wellness culture. Today, consumers have access to thousands of products and an endless stream of health advice from podcasts, influencers, physicians, biohackers and social media. More information should make choosing easier. Instead, it often makes it harder. This episode is ultimately about becoming a more educated consumer—and understanding that your health is too personal to outsource entirely to a label, an advertisement or the latest trend. KEY TAKEAWAYS • Bigger doses do not automatically mean better supplements. • Ingredient quality, sourcing, standardization and absorption can matter as much as dosage. • Published human research is an important part of evaluating nutritional ingredients. • Longevity is unlikely to come from one miracle molecule or supplement. • Healthy aging depends on multiple interconnected biological and lifestyle factors. • Expensive or trendy longevity products are not automatically superior to established nutrients. • Consumers should understand what is actually inside a supplement—not just what appears on the front of the bottle. • Marketing claims and scientific evidence are not the same thing. • Transparency is essential when companies are asking people to trust them with their health. • Entrepreneurs in wellness have a responsibility to evolve as the science evolves. • Supplements can support health, but they are only one part of a much larger picture. • Building a successful health company requires balancing science, business, ethics and consumer trust. • The more personalized health becomes, the more important informed decision-making becomes. ABOUT CARL PRADELLI Carl Pradelli is the Co-Founder and CEO of NatureCity, a nutritional supplement company he founded with his wife Beth in 2002. Carl leads NatureCity’s product development and has spent more than two decades building relationships with scientists, ingredient suppliers and manufacturers. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree from New York University and an MBA from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. He also hosts The NatureCity Podcast, where he breaks down research surrounding supplements, nutrition and healthy aging and challenges some of the assumptions consumers make about dosage, ingredients and longevity products. If you take supplements, care about longevity, spend money on wellness—or simply want to become harder to fool by health marketing—this conversation is worth hearing. Because when it comes to your health, everything is personal. 🎥 WATCH THE FULL EPISODE: [INSERT CARL YOUTUBE LINK] 🎧 LISTEN ON ALL PODCAST PLATFORMS: https://everything-is-personal.simplecast.com/ 🌿 LEARN MORE ABOUT NATURECITY: https://www.naturecity.com/ SEARCH / SEO KEYWORDS Carl Pradelli, Carl Pradelli NatureCity, NatureCity, nutritional supplements, supplement industry, supplement quality, supplement science, dietary supplements, longevity supplements, healthy aging, longevity, healthspan, anti-aging supplements, vitamins and supplements, supplement transparency, supplement ingredients, supplement dosage, supplement absorption, supplement formulation, evidence-based supplements, science-backed supplements, nutrition, wellness, biohacking, longevity science, healthy lifestyle, health optimization, inflammation, oxidative stress, cardiovascular health, brain health, metabolic health, consumer health, entrepreneurship, wellness business, Len May, Everything Is Personal Podcast #EverythingIsPersonal #CarlPradelli #NatureCity #Supplements #Longevity #HealthyAging #Healthspan #Nutrition #Wellness #Biohacking #HealthOptimization #SupplementScience #PersonalizedHealth #Entrepreneurship #Podcast #LenMay EndoDNA: Where Genetic Science Meets Actionable Patient Care EndoDNA bridges the gap between complex genomics and patient wellness.
