In this episode, I give you some information that can possibly help you live longer, as well as improve your quality of life. The inspiration behind today's podcast is my impending 49th birthday! Also, I have recently listened to several podcasts on longevity, and how important it is to own our choices related to the way we eat, the way we interact with others, and the way we move our bodies. I wanted to share a few things I have read and heard in hopes that it can spark that idea within you to create the change you need to become the best version of yourself.
I talk about building your community, being active, polyphenols (berries, berries, and more berries), fasting, autophagy, and some of my favorite super foods. I also talk a great deal about smoothies (more than I realized). I teach you how to build a satisfying smoothie that can replace your first meal of the day if you are on the go, or just like the convenience of a smoothie.
