Is living longer better?
As science and medicine improves, we’re living longer and longer. But more often than not, extending your lifespan doesn’t mean improving your health. And besides, if your last twenty years are spent in and out of hospital, is there any point? Join Luigi Fontana as he shares his secrets to living a longer, healthier and happier life. He’ll dig into the nitty gritty of healthy ageing, and what to do to prevent the ageing process before it happens and, maybe, how to have the body of a 50-year-old when you’re 80.
