This is How You Age Well

With Dr. Frank Lipman

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 today’s Broken Brain Podcast, I talk to Dr. Frank Lipman about the cross-cultural differences in aging, and why we are so afraid of aging in the Western world. We discuss how we can optimize the function of our genes with simple tweaks to have a profound impact on how we age, and why fasting is so powerful when it comes to longevity and healthy aging. Dr. Lipman also shares supplements he recommends for longevity, and some promising anti-aging treatments.
