Scott Fulton is an extremely talented individual. He’s a mechanical engineer by training who shifted into home design with older adults in mind, forming a company called Home Ideations. In fact, he custom built his own home in Virginia using the principles from Home Ideations.

He dug deep – and still does – into how to live better as we age.

Scott is well into his 60s, is very active and excels at physical fitness, competing in ironman triathlons and long distance running.

His abiding interest in healthspan and longevity impelled him to dive into a vast trove of health data to answer one simple question: what’s the most important thing people can do for their bodies and brains that can help them live longer?

By crunching many millions of bytes of data from 700 thousand adults, spanning 10 million person years, Scott has answered the question he posed and written a book called Function that lays out his findings.

The answer to the question he posed to himself will surprise you..

Settle in for a fascinating conversation.
