Litman has started a new company focused on increasing healthspan
The membership company will take diagnostics and curate quarterly programming and personalised protocols
Members will be in tight-knit groups to keep each other on track, with the support of clinicians
Eric Litman, CEO of New York-based lifestyle robotics company Aescape, has announced he'll be starting a new company – Healthspanners – to focus on improving healthspan.
After eight years with Litman at the helm of the company, Aescape’s automated massage technology is now located in more than 100 locations operated by brands such as Equinox, Four Seasons, Life Time and Marriott.
During his time at Aescape, Litman has been tracking his own health privately and learning how to make improvements.
In a LinkedIn post, he says he is in the best shape of his life at 52 – better even than at 35.
He says he shared his findings with athletes, founders and investors and came to the conclusion that health optimisation is a lonely business of figuring out one’s own biological constraints and requirements.
Healthspanners is designed to offer the solution, a curated health optimisation programme for small groups, led by a clinical team with expertise in metabolic biology, cardiovascular science, sleep medicine, cognitive performance and longevity therapeutics.
The membership will provide quarterly programming and a tightly-knit community to keep each other accountable and make sustained improvements to how they feel, perform and age.
The protocol will start with an assessment of more than 200 baseline biomarkers and genetic data. A quarterly dinner acts as a question-and-answer session with clinicians. A medical director then oversees personalised protocols delivered to members. These interventions are monitored and refined by clinicians as the research advances.
