About this episode


Have you heard of “touch starvation”? It’s a real thing that happens when you don’t have the skin-to-skin physical contact with others that you need or that you are used to.

What can you do to live as long a life as possible? That is what biologist and science writer Andrew Steele set out to discover. And what he found is amazing. Andrew is author of the book Ageless: The New Science of Getting Older Without Getting Old (https://amzn.to/3pAtIxx) and he joins me to explain the very latest on what we can all do to improve our chances of living much longer and staying healthier in those later years. He also describes some of the fascinating research that may result in treatments in our lifetime so we can all live even longer.
