Episode notes

Aging, according to Bill Rawls, MD, is the loss of functional cells as we go through life. An author and physician, Dr. Rawls is on a mission to elevate the importance of caring for the basic building blocks of our body. Our cells, he says, are the key to healthy longevity. The fourth generation physician, from Raleigh in North Carolina, confronted a mid-life health crisis of his own that transformed his view of personal wellness. He now focusses his energies on holistic health interventions and the power of herbal supplements. In his latest book, The Cellular Wellness Solution, Dr Rawls lays out what he sees as the limitations of modern medicine and the possibilities offered by alternative treatments.
