Dr. Scott Sherr joins Dr. Ivan Rusilko to discuss mitochondrial health, methylene blue, sleep, and why true longevity medicine starts with cellular optimization—not symptom management.
In this episode, Dr. Ivan Rusilko sits down with internal medicine physician and health optimization expert Dr. Scott Sherr to explore what it truly means to move beyond disease management. They dive deep into mitochondrial health, methylene blue, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, sleep, and nervous system regulation—and why no advanced therapy works without a solid cellular foundation. This conversation challenges conventional medicine and reframes what “standard of care” should look like for human health and longevity.
Dr. Scott Sherr is an internal medicine physician specializing in Health Optimization Medicine (HOME) and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. He is a leader in mitochondrial health, redox biology, and cellular resilience, with a clinical focus on optimizing metabolism, sleep, and nervous system balance. Dr. Sherr is also a key educator on the clinical use of methylene blue and serves as a strong advocate for shifting medicine from disease treatment to proactive health optimization.

Dr. Maria Giannopoulos explains why women’s health requires nuanced lab testing to address hormones, fatigue, libido, and life-stage transitions.
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Maria Giannopoulos to discuss why women’s health requires a more nuanced, lab-driven approach. We explore how fatigue, hormonal imbalance, low libido, and weight changes affect women differently across life stages—from young adulthood to perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Giannopoulos explains why proper diagnostics are essential for truly personalized care and why women shouldn’t accept “this is normal” as an answer.
Dr. Maria Giannopoulos is a board-certified OB-GYN with advanced training in robotic surgery and a strong focus on precision women’s health. Formerly practicing at North Shore Hospital in New York, she now emphasizes personalized diagnostics, hormone health, and wellness-based care.

Dr. Ivan Rusilko breaks down sleep architecture and explains how delta and REM sleep drive healing, hormones, brain health, and longevity.
----
In this episode, I break down the architecture of sleep and why it’s the foundation of healing, regeneration, and longevity. I walk through the different sleep stages—from alpha and light sleep to deep delta and REM—and explain how each one affects hormones, brain health, immune function, and emotional balance. Sleep isn’t rest—it’s active repair. If sleep isn’t optimized, nothing else in medicine truly works. This is part one of a deeper sleep series.

Dr. Vass Eliopoulos reveals the true foundations of longevity—from purpose and sleep to advanced labs, peptides, and regenerative medicine.
----
In this episode, I talk with Dr. Vass Eliopoulos about what truly drives longevity. We dive into purpose, community, sleep, stress biomarkers, advanced labs, peptides, and how to build a personalized path toward better healthspan. Dr. Vass also shares his experience with regenerative tools like stem cells and ozone therapy—and why consistency matters more than chasing every new biohack.
----
Dr. Vassily Eliopoulos (Dr. Vass) is the Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer of Longevity Health.
He originally graduated from Trinity College, where he earned a bachelor's degree with honors in Neuroscience.
