When it comes to longevity, the goal isn’t just to live as long as possible. The true objective is to live as vibrantly and energetically as possible, for as long as possible. So how exactly do we do this?

On this episode of The Doctor’s Farmacy, I was happy to sit down and talk with Dr. Frank Lipman about the biggest controlling factor when it comes to aging, the main longevity regulators in the body, and what we can do to activate them.
