The Exam Room by the Physicians Committee The Secret To Living Longer
You are about to learn the secret to living a long life!
"The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll sits down with longevity expert Dan Buettner to unlock the keys to not just longevity, but living healthier into old age. Buettner has devoted his life to exploring Blue Zones, which are the regions on earth where people have the longest average lifespan. And nutrition plays a critical role in outliving the typical person, often by a decade or longer despite genetics.
Some of the people he's encountered are living as though they're 50 years younger. In fact, one Loma Linda, California-based cardiologist was still conducting open heart surgery well into his 90's. The doctor credits a vegan diet for his superior health and steady hand at an advanced age.
Chuck also sits down with longevity expert Dr. Brad Willcox. The pair discuss the role diet plays in reducing inflammation and warding off debilitating disease such as arthritis. Willcox has also spent a great deal of time studying the habits of Okinawa, Japan residents where the average lifespan is nearly five years great than in America. He was part of the team that published the groundbreaking Okinawa Centenarian Study on long life.
How are they doing? You're about to find out.
