Ep #001: Longevity

In this episode, we’re discussing the topic of longevity and the impact chronic illness has on lifespan.

For most people, the goal of living a long and healthy life is what everyone strives for, but these days people are getting sick which impedes the aging process and hinders our natural abilities to age properly.  Centenarians are a rapidly growing part of our population, and there have been several studies done to see what their secrets are – most notably the Blue Zones studies.  Aging is a natural biochemical process in our bodies and society has come to think that chronic illness is part of aging, which is not true.  We should be living long, healthy, disease-free lives.  Ian and Dr. Baylac discuss these issues and how society somehow has come to accept something that we should consider taking another look at.

Tune in to join the conversation about designing a lifestyle and acquiring a mindset that promote a long, healthy and happy life.
