In this series, we’re exploring the balance between what you can and can’t control when it comes to your health.
On this episode, Chuck Gaidica is joined by Senior Medical Director for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, Dr. Raymond Hobbs. Together, they explore how to embrace the natural aging process while focusing on the areas of our health we can actively maintain.
In this episode of A Healthier Michigan Podcast, we explore:
- How lifestyle habits like diet, exercise, and avoiding tobacco can significantly impact aging and health through epigenetic changes.
- How activities that stimulate the mind, like learning new skills, are important for maintaining cognitive function.
- How building physical and mental resilience through things like social connections, purpose, and managing stress are crucial for healthy aging.
- How regular checkups with a doctor to monitor and address health risks are recommended, even if you feel healthy.
Heading into our final episode of this series, we’ll look at the role of lifestyle in disease prevention – especially when faced with risk factors beyond our control. Join us to learn how small changes we make today can help protect our health in the long run
