Summary
Living longer isn't always about genetics. You have more control over your ability to live well into your golden years than you think.
The secret to hitting the genetic jackpot is explored with Drs. Alona Pulde and Matthew Lederman.
The authors of Wellness to Wonderful share what they've discovered to be the biggest keys to not just living longer, but also healthier and with greater joy. It's a recipe that extends beyond simply eating healthier and into what it means to live a full existence in all areas of life.
For example, they discuss why a man was still able to hand wash his car well after turning 100 years old.
Drs. Pulde and Lederman join "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast with fascinating insight into living the long and rewarding life you're striving for.
Join The Exam Room LIVE in New York on July 12. Watch Chuck, Dr. Neal Barnard, Rip Esselstyn, Dr. Robert Ostfeld, and Dr. Michelle McMacken create the most heart healthy night of your life. Research and tips and food to keep your heart healthy is on the menu.
