HSK 6 learners can handle abstract topics, but cutting-edge health-tech vocabulary — epigenetics, cellular regeneration, biohacking — often still trips them up.

What's in this dialogue

Anna and Liam discuss Bryan Johnson's million-dollar "Immortals" longevity protocol, complete with a "Die Score" and a 24-hour AI health coach.

The conversation even touches on tech companies canceling traditional medical insurance.
