Longevity Supplements: Hype, Hope, or Real Business? [TBS 32 ft Qurio & Xandro Lab]

Written by The Financial Coconut | Oct 1, 2025 2:58:55 AM

Can popping a pill really make you feel like you’ve upgraded from a mid-tier phone to the latest flagship model? In this episode, one of us is skeptical… the other swears by it. We unpack the booming longevity supplement space with two guests who are right in the thick of it:

  • Dr. Eugene He – biotechnologist, naturopath, and CEO of Qurio Pte Ltd, on why he’s betting big on living beyond 120 (without looking it).
  • Shantanu Kumar – Co-Founder and CEO of Xandro Lab, on going from broke founder to leading a Singapore-based supplement brand with global ambitions.

Expect debates, insider stories, and surprising truths about:

  • The science behind longevity and what’s hype.
  • Building a supplement brand in one of the most competitive industries.
  • How livestreaming is rewriting the rules of selling health products.
