— Sebastián La RosaExplaining his specialization in longevity medicine.

La Rosa, who has garnered a significant following with over six million YouTube subscribers, founded Pulso AI in 2025. This platform integrates artificial intelligence, biomarkers, and nutritional science to provide tailored recommendations for optimizing health and biological performance. He travels across Argentina delivering his talk, "The 5 Habits for a Longer Life."

My intention was to find a way to repair that damage, but I found that there were six million people who were in my same condition and interested in the same topics.

— Sebastián La RosaDiscussing the origins of his interest in longevity and health.

His specialization stems from negative personal experiences with alternative medicine and restrictive diets during his childhood in the 1980s and 1990s. These diets, he explains, had a detrimental impact on his development and nutrient intake. This led him to seek a more evidence-based approach, which he found lacking in many online health trends.

It is important to incorporate healthy habits from childhood.

— Sebastián La RosaHighlighting the significance of early adoption of healthy practices.

La Rosa identifies five core pillars for a longer, healthier life: diet, two aspects of exercise, sleep quality, and personalization. He stresses that personalized health strategies are crucial because what works for one person may not work for another. He also suggests a significant dietary timing strategy: consuming the majority of one's food intake before 3 p.m.

It is about returning to the basics: diet, two aspects of exercise, sleep quality, and the way to personalize health. Those are the five major axes.
