Eating For Longevity

This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens and InsideTracker


What to eat for health has been a historically divisive topic, but it really shouldn’t be. If you want optimal health, you need to do just one thing: eat the foods that heal you and avoid the ones that harm you. The foundation of health and longevity is diet. 


In today’s episode of my series I’m calling Health Bites, I discuss what to eat for longevity and how to focus on food as medicine. What I’ve discovered has blown my mind and changed the way I approach my own health and the health of my patients. I’ve compiled it all into a new book called Young Forever, which comes out on February 21, 2023. Learn more and preorder the book at youngforeverbook.com.
