Welcome to the Get Healthy Tampa Bay Podcast with Dr. Kerry Reller! This week, I am joined by Dr. Dillon Meier, a cardiothoracic anesthesiologist and founder of 7Longevity. In this episode, we explore longevity medicine, functional medicine, biohacking, and the systems engineering approach to optimizing health. Dr. Meier shares how his wife’s autoimmune diagnosis sparked his interest in root-cause medicine and discusses topics such as gut health, inflammation, advanced testing, sauna therapy, wearable technology, AI in healthcare, and personalized wellness strategies. We also dive into his experience with the carnivore diet, biological aging, and how data-driven health optimization may help people improve healthspan and prevent chronic disease. Tune in to learn practical insights on improving your health through lifestyle, technology, and personalized medicine.
