Longevity v Science is now focused on compressing that gap, not just adding years. Healthy Brain Aging is what the research is about. You can have Alzheimer’s markers but never develop it!
Dr. Roberts had these point to make.
5 Pillars to Super-Aging: Pillar 1: Move your body 150 minutes/week. Super agers: average 42 minutes/day. Never too late to start Pillar 2: Protect your sleep - quality sleep is important and regular sleep pattern is important Pillar 3: Feed your brain. MIND diet Pillar 4: Stay connected. Develop and maintain authentic connections with friends and family Pillar 5: Live with purpose Ageism is the most socially accepted form of discrimination!
