The New Science of Living a Longer and Healthier Life with Professor Rose Anne Kenny (Re-release) #619

Everybody assumes aging is about your genes and you are stuck more or less at the moment anyway with whatever genes you've got. But that isn't the case. Genes only contribute to 20% of the aging process. 80% is within our control. Isn't that wonderful?

Hey guys, how are you doing? Hope you're having a good week so far. My name is Dr. Rongan Chatterjee and this is my podcast, Feel Better, Live More. Longevity seems to have become one of the hottest topics in health.

We have seemingly become obsessed with anti aging, as if getting older should be avoided or even reversed at all costs. And of course, even if we could do that, I'm not sure we'd really want to. However, with much of society struggling as I get older, I do think it's important to remember that there are lots of simple things that we can do that will massively increase the likelihood that we will age healthily and happily. Professor Roseanne Kenny is a medical gerontologist and Regious Professor of Physics and Chair of Medical Gerontology at Trinity College Dublin. She's also the founding principal investigator of Ireland's largest population study of aging and the author of the international bestseller Age Proof, the new science of living a longer and healthier life.
