0:03.0	We're going to be talking all about aging today because physicians have long treated aging like a malady.
0:09.0	But getting older does not mean that you have to get sicker.
0:13.7	There are 11 pathways for aging in our body cells and we can disrupt each of them.
0:20.9	We can, in processes like autophagy or the upcycling of unusable junk can be boosted with foods like

2:22.0	Welcome to The Lindsay Elmore Show, a podcast for people who deserve to be healthy. With honest,
