The Longevity Imperative: Redefining the Way We Age

This podcast explores the crucial need to adapt to longer lifespans. Experts emphasize a shift from merely treating diseases to actively managing health, calling for changes in healthcare systems, financial planning (like pensions and 401ks), career structures, and even drug development to support healthier, longer lives. The conversation highlights the importance of combating ageism and fostering a "longevity society" instead of an "aging society," acknowledging the varied ways people age and the potential for older adults to remain engaged and productive. Additionally, the podcast stresses key personal strategies for healthy aging, including diet, exercise, and sleep.
