Meet Our Founding Partner
Dr. Michael Roizen's journey began in the 1970s when he questioned why medicine focused on treating disease instead of preventing it. Over five decades, he transformed this philosophy into a science-backed revolution that has touched millions of lives.
As an anesthesiologist at major medical centers, including UCSF and the University of Chicago, Dr. Roizen witnessed firsthand how lifestyle choices determined patient outcomes. This led him to pioneer the field of "lifestyle medicine" long before it became mainstream. His groundbreaking research showed that simple health metrics could predict—and more importantly, change—how fast you age.
The RealAge concept, which he developed in the 1990s, revolutionized how people think about aging. Instead of accepting chronological age as destiny, Dr. Roizen proved that your biological age—your "RealAge"—could be dramatically different. This work became the foundation for four New York Times bestsellers and transformed wellness from a luxury into an accessible science.
At Cleveland Clinic, Dr. Roizen didn't just theorize—he proved his approach works at scale. As Chief Wellness Officer, he implemented the "6+2" protocol across 43,000 employees. The results were unprecedented: $1+ billion in healthcare savings, 33% fewer sick days, and an additional 12 years of disability-free life expectancy for participants.
