Key tenets
- shifting healthcare, medicine and personal focus from lifespan to "health span". Living well longer.

Measure this with biomarkers.
We can manage our biological age ourselves.
20:00 Which people are doing work in aging who we should follow? There are scientific geneticists, society researchers (employment, housing, transport), medical (treatments and interventions) and personal health (what we can do ourselves).
Cell senescence is key - cells are dying and not being replaced.

36:30 Novos Labs are a supplements company. Their website is informative.
37:15 How you you monitor our own health?
Clare takes supplements not because she feels bad. She wants to live well.
Daily yoga practice has been massively helpful for strength, balance and mobility.
Daily exercise - sculling, run or cycle
Diet and nutrition - the impact on physical and mental / emotional health. I eat gut-friendly foods. I have cut out sugars so I'm less dependent and greek yoghurt daily.
44:00 Tips - apply to your everyday. A dietary intervention is the concept of intermittent fasting - body ketosis. Everybody is different.
47:00 Opinions on a vegan diet? It's an individual choice. With aging it's protein levels that are critical to less stress and cell repair. Women need fat in our diet.
Clare is a convert to non-meat proteins - pulses / beans and plant based milks.
52:00 Gut health is important. Fermented foods, pickles, kimchi and sauerkraut.
