Manage episode 422679057 series 2391466
Join me in an enlightening conversation with Dr. Michael Greger, a leading expert in lifestyle medicine and bestselling author, as we explore longevity and how to achieve it. We'll uncover how diets rich in whole plant foods, as seen in the Blue Zones, contribute to a longer and healthier life. Dr. Greger shares evidence-based strategies from his latest book, "How Not to Age," addressing common misconceptions about dying from old age versus disease and emphasizing the role of heart disease as a primary cause of death. We'll also touch on essential health topics like autophagy and the importance of legumes in our diet.
Dr. Greger dispels myths about air frying and discusses healthier alternatives for obtaining omega-3 fatty acids, given the environmental contaminants in fish. We delve into the importance of fall prevention through exercises and balance training, and explore ways to maintain youthful skin through sun protection and a diet rich in colorful fruits and vegetables.
Dr. Michael Greger, MD FACLM, is a founding member and Fellow of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, a renowned physician, bestselling author, and global advocate for evidence-based nutrition. As the founder of NutritionFacts.org, he provides free access to the latest peer-reviewed research in nutritional science through bite-sized videos. Inspired by his grandmother's remarkable recovery from end-stage heart disease through lifestyle changes, Dr. Greger embarked on a mission to educate millions about evidence-based eating. With a career spanning as the Public Health Director at HSUS in Washington, DC, and a background in emerging infectious diseases, Dr. Greger's dedication to public health is unparalleled. He has authored several New York Times bestsellers, including "How Not to Die" and "How Not to Diet," with all proceeds going to charity. His tireless efforts continue to revolutionize the way we approach nutrition and health.
