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

The podcast explores the science of aging and longevity, challenging the notion that genes solely dictate the aging process. Professor Rose Anne Kenny, a medical gerontologist, shares insights from her research, emphasizing that 80% of aging is epigenetic and within our control. Key factors influencing aging include the quality of friendships and relationships, diet, exercise, and stress management. The conversation also covers the importance of knowing key biological markers like blood pressure, lipid profiles, and HbA1c levels, as well as the impact of socioeconomic disparities on cellular aging. Professor Kenny references the TILDA study and the blue zones as examples, and highlights the importance of attitude, purpose, and laughter in promoting healthy aging.
