Summary

What makes a food – a comfort food? Are you actually comforted by these foods? This episode begins by revealing why people crave certain comfort foods and what eating those foods does for you. https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2015/04/why-comfort-food-comforts/389613/ Is it really possible to slow down the aging process and increase how long you live? There are a lot of products offered that supposedly do that. And while some of it may be hype, there is a lot of serious research into how to increase lifespan by slowing the process of aging. One of the people on the cutting edge of this research is Dr. David Sinclair. He is a leading longevity expert, professor at Harvard University and author of the book Lifespan: Why we Age and Why We Don’t Have To (https://amzn.to/3KXpzN8). Listen to our conversation as he explores proven ways to turn back the clock and add years to your life. A day is 24 hours long. Humans have 5 senses. It is lack of gravity that allows astronauts on the International Space Station to float in the air. These are a few examples of things most people believe to be true that are not. Or, they may have a little truth to them but not as much as you think. That is what Philip Bouchard is here to discuss. He is a software engineer, educator and author of the book The Stickler’s Guide to Science in the Age of Misinformation: The Real Science Behind Hacky Headlines, Crappy Clickbait, and Suspect Sources (https://amzn.to/3tH5swJ). Your stomach growls when you are hungry. But hunger is not the reason it growls. In fact, it isn’t even your stomach that is growling. Listen as I explore what is really going on to make all that noise at exactly the wrong time. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/319901 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!
