Stayin' Alive - The Science of Living Longer | Longevity BKK
Details
We all have a limited amount of time to live. Yet we’re constantly being told what to do to live longer, healthier lives.
Take this supplement. Follow that diet. Do this exercise. Buy that product.
But here’s the uncomfortable question: What if some of these things aren’t actually making a difference?
We might spend decades following advice without ever knowing whether it helped. Meanwhile, marketing claims and conflicting recommendations make it harder to distinguish science from hype.
And even when something works, what works for one person might not work for another.
So how do we figure out what's actually worth doing?
That's why we're bringing together a physician, an experienced coach, and people willing to share their real-life experiences. To question assumptions, clear up misconceptions, and explore how to make better decisions about our own health.
No background needed. Just curiosity and an open mind.
This isn’t a sit-and-listen morning. You’ll scan a QR code and answer a few quick questions on your phone at the start and again at the end, so we can see how the room’s thinking changed. Talks are short, and challenging the speakers is very welcome.
🍽 750 THB set lunch with drinks, paid directly to Hard Rock. Details below.
You’ll leave with:
- a simple way to check whether a health claim deserves your trust
- practical takeaways on food, training and health testing
- one 14-day experiment you planned yourself, and someone to check in with

Who are we?
We’re Longevity BKK, a Bangkok community of 550+ members that’s been meeting since 2024, with regular meetups, workshops, a running club and an active WhatsApp group. Orba is helping us make this morning more useful, and their co-founder Zethapong Nimmanterdwong, MD, is joining the panel.
This morning is a great way to meet us. Come for the talks, stay for the people, and if it clicks, you’re welcome to join the community.
Bring a friend. Your 14-day experiment is easier with a buddy, so invite someone along and keep each other on track. Each person needs to register.
