Men's health podcast

Expert knowledge on testosterone and men's health

What if an artificial intelligence could know everything about your health and predict how your body would change in response to certain changes?

Prof. Robin, an epidemiologist and professor of health sciences and public health, is researching exactly this vision. Through his research project “Open Twin,” he is developing a digital twin of the human body that brings together health data from wearables, blood tests, genetic information, and medical examinations.

In this episode, he talks with Dr. Jonathan Apasu about how artificial intelligence could revolutionize medicine, why individual health data is becoming more valuable, and why everyone may one day have a digital twin.

Topics in this episode:

- Digital twins: How a virtual copy of your body is created

- AI in medicine: How health data can be analyzed intelligently

- Personalized prevention: Identifying health risks early

- Wearables, blood test results & body scans: The foundation of digital preventive healthcare

- The medicine of the future: Why your digital twin could accompany you to the doctor

- Data privacy & AI: How sensitive health data is to be protected

- N-of-1 medicine: Why your body could serve as its own reference

How will medicine change when doctors no longer look at individual readings alone, but know your entire health history?

Find out how digital twins could change preventive healthcare and which developments are already a reality today. Tune in now!

#81 - How modern diagnostics detect diseases before you feel them | Dr. Hadi Saleh on men's health

In this episode of the Men's Health Podcast, Dr. Jonathan Apasu and Dr. Hadi Saleh discuss one of the most exciting approaches in modern medicine: highly personalized preventive diagnostics. Dr. Saleh, former CEO of CeramTec and a passionate health missionary, decided to end his successful career in industry to return to direct patient care. His goal is to prevent diseases before they develop and to empower people to regain control over their long-term health. In the conversation, he explains how whole-body MRI, liquid biopsy, and comprehensive blood diagnostics help detect risks such as cancer, aneurysms, or cardiovascular diseases early on. He points out why false positives are discussed, but are no obstacle in informed hands, and how important it is to find the right balance between necessary screening and unnecessary diagnostics. Another focus is on functional measurements such as VO₂max and grip strength, two of the strongest markers for longevity. Hadi explains how these values are measured, why they are so meaningful, and which training methods, from Nordic 4x4 interval training to dead hangs and farmer's carries, bring the greatest improvements. The insights into genetic and pharmacogenetic analyses are also particularly valuable. Which genes influence the risk of Alzheimer's? For whom is BRCA relevant? Why do medications work worse or differently in some people? And how can these findings be used to specifically optimize treatment decisions? Finally, the conversation turns to the major lifestyle levers. Strength training to prevent sarcopenia, regular endurance exercise, consistent sleep, a high-fiber diet, less alcohol, social interaction, and mental stimulation. Dr. Saleh impressively shows that prevention does not have to be expensive, but requires knowledge, personal responsibility, and consistency. This episode provides one of the most comprehensive, modern, and medically sound perspectives on how men can secure their long-term health today. A must-listen for anyone who wants to understand how preventive medicine works in 2026 and how they can benefit from it themselves.
