This episode takes a look at the conflicting message around aging as a natural process versus aging as a disease. We dive into the beliefs that drive behaviour based on the interpretation of aging and the anti-aging industry. Tune in to learn what you can do to self-assess quality of life longevity factors, and how to avoid the fear-driven messaging around the anti-aging supplement industry.
