Today’s episode could change (or save) your life. It’s a must-listen.

You’ll hear from the world’s leading longevity doctor about the simple, proven changes that will help you live longer, feel better, and prevent diseases like cancer, heart disease, and dementia.

Today, Mel sits down with one of the world’s most respected scientists, Dr. Eric Topol — a pioneering cardiologist, longevity researcher, and one of the top 10 most cited medical researchers alive today — to reveal the real, evidence-based approach to longevity.

This is the science and art of living better, longer.

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:
-The #1 free intervention proven to slow aging
-The three everyday habits that are aging you faster (and how to fix them)
-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.”

Whether you want to prevent disease, feel better, or just live a longer, healthier life, this episode will give you the real plan for how to do it.

    This unfortunately was very disappointing Mel.
    I didn’t learn anything new, except that certain blood tests, which aren’t available on the national health in Spain, can tell you if you’re predisposed to the three illnesses you mentioned. When you finally finished repeating yourself, you covered very quickly, giving no details at all, lifestyle changes you can make to help longevity. Those were the very basic things that we already knew. You nearly got there mentioning protein, but failed to tell the listener, how much protein at each meal, men Vs women, the best sources and are protein powders beneficial etc etc…
    I guess what you are trying to do is sell the dr’s book and the details are in the book.
    Although really think the break through that the Dr is excited about is the blood tests which will help to determine your risk factors. If you’re at risk, more regular tests will carried out and life style changes will be addressed.
