January 8, 2023
Dr. Michael Roizen is a physician who specializes in anti-aging. He became famous for developing the Real Age concept and has authored or coauthored 5 number one New York Times best sellers.
In this episode, Dr. Roizen talks about the concept of real age versus calendar age. In fact, your physiological age, not just how old you are, can make a huge impact on different risk factors for your health.
60 is the new 40, says Dr. Roizen!
And one factor in promoting faster aging has been shown to be sugar.
Dr. Roizen explains how sugar glycosylates proteins and can make certain proteins in the body function less well.
One example is hemoglobin A1C, which is related to blood sugar levels.
We also talk about motivation, the rate of aging in your body, joint stiffness (glycosylation of cartilage), stress, nutrition, your choices versus your genes, time-restricted eating... and lots more!
Dr. Roizen is passionate about helping people live younger longer. He shares his insight and amazing knowledge about aging and sugar in this episode.
