What if we could reprogram old cells to be young again? What if we could rewrite our DNA to guarantee a disease-free future? What if we could eliminate obesity? What if 90 were the new 40? Breakthroughs in aging science are happening every day and as a result, living to 100, 120, or even 130 will become increasingly common. According to Dr. Michael Roizen, this new reality will have far-reaching effects on work, family life, retirement, and more, making longevity the next social disruptor. Dr. Roizen talks about how current science and technology will revolutionize our ability to live longer, younger, and better. Dr. Roizen is the Emeritus chief wellness officer at the Cleveland Clinic, a professor at the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine at Case Western Reserve University, and author of four #1 New York Times best-selling books.
