Age Proof: The New Science Of Living A Longer, Healthier & Wealthier Life
Webinar
Background: We all age, but some of us live longer than others and on average we are living twice as long as our ancestors did 200 years ago. So, the latest science with respect to ageing and science that I have been involved in for the last 40 years shows that 80% of our ageing biology is within our own control. Longer healthier lifespan is clearly aligned to socioeconomic status. We can not only live longer lives, but live also much happier healthier lives deep into our later years if we control modifiable factors. I will cover the most important areas that allow you to take control of your ageing process.
