Forget the trendy anti-aging supplements, infusions, and miracle cures: Dr. Topol is here to give you the truth on exactly what the science says about how to reverse the biological age of your organs, add up to a decade of healthy years to your life, and avoid the biggest killers we all fear.

You’ll learn:

-How to exercise and eat for optimal health and longevity

-The truth about supplements, IV drips, and anti-aging clinics

-Why loneliness is as dangerous to your health as smoking

-How exercise can be more effective than antidepressants

-The breakthrough blood tests and tools that could predict — and prevent — diseases decades before they happen

This conversation is full of science and hope, because as Dr. Topol says: “It has never been a more exciting time in medicine.”
