There is increased attention being paid to the concept of longevity recently. People are living longer than they ever have, and the desire to continually extend our lifespan is at an all-time high. While much of the attention is being directed at how LONG we live, it is easy to overlook the importance of how WELL we live during those years. So how can we ensure that our years are not just long, but that they are healthy? How can we optimize both the QUANTITY, as well as the QUALITY of the years we have here on earth? To help us with this session, our expert is Dr. Sara Bonnes, the Medical Director of the Healthy Longevity Clinic at Mayo Clinic.
The three big questions for Dr. Bonnes are:
1. What is “longevity,” and how does focusing on healthspan differ from simply trying to live longer
2. What are the main areas in our lives that determine our “healthspan”?
3. How can the average person incorporate practical lifestyle changes to support both a longer life and better quality of life?
