Prolon Launches Almost Forever, a New Podcast Bridging the Gap Between Longevity Science and Everyday Life

Hosted by registered dietitians and longevity experts, the series debuts June 17 with leading voices in wellness, nutrition, and longevity science

LOS ANGELES, June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- L-Nutra Inc., the science-driven longevity nutrition company behind consumer brand Prolon, today announces the launch of Almost Forever, a podcast exploring what it actually takes to live a longer, healthier, and more meaningful life.

Almost Forever features candid conversations with the clinicians, researchers, and innovators shaping our understanding of human healthspan. Unlike trend-driven wellness content, Almost Forever is rooted in more than 25 years of peer-reviewed longevity and nutrition science, including 47 clinical trials and 130 global patents, through Prolon's parent company, L-Nutra. 

Hosted by two registered dietitians with advanced degrees in healthspan and longevity, Melanie Murphy Richter, MS, RDN, and Renee Fitton, MS, RDN, Almost Forever brings together leading experts to explore the pillars of a longer healthspan: nutrition, metabolic health, hormones, sleep, the gut microbiome, fasting, stress, and the compounding daily decisions that shape how we age. The show connects these topics not as isolated trends, but as an interconnected system; one where every pillar informs the next, and the decisions you make today shape the quality of the decades ahead.

New episodes drop every other Wednesday on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify, with all episodes produced at L-Nutra's studios in Los Angeles. Inaugural guests include: Jennifer Cohen (Speaker & Podcaster, Habits & Hustle), Cynthia Thurlow (Best-Selling Author, The Menopause Gut), Simon Hill (Nutrition Scientist, The Proof Podcast), Darin Olien (Author and TV Host, Down to Earth with Zac Efron) and Darshan Shah (Founder of Next Health). 

"The timing of the launch of Almost Forever is deliberate. The longevity industry is growing at an unprecedented pace, with new supplements, protocols, and self-proclaimed experts entering the space daily," explains Melanie Murphy Richter, MS, RDN and co-host. "For consumers, the noise has never been louder or more difficult to navigate. Our goal is to cut through that noise, ground every conversation in peer-reviewed science and decades of clinical research, and translate that expertise into actionable steps listeners can actually apply to their lives."

"Longevity shouldn't feel like a research project you need a PhD to decode. Almost Forever is the show I wish had existed when I started in this space: the right experts, honest conversations, and information that actually changes how you live, not just how long," said Renee Fitton, MS, RDN and co-host of Almost Forever.
