The Beat Live at HLTH: Lifestyle Changes for Longevity & Disease Prevention—featuring Dugal Bain
Even those of us who are motivated to improve our health have a hard time getting answers from the traditional healthcare system.
Clinicians are trained to diagnose and treat disease but have little experience in preventative medicine.
So, where do we go to assess our current level of health and start making choices that will improve both quality and length of life?
Dugal Bain is Cofounder and CEO of Lifeforce, a proactive health and longevity platform that empowers people to think clearer, feel stronger and live longer.
