For the Love of Longevity – What to Accept (and What Not to Give Up On) When It Comes to Nutrition & Body Changes

 

✨ Episode Highlights:
Aging is inevitable, but how we age? That’s where we have some control. In this episode, my husband joins me to dive into what’s normal, what we can influence, and how to embrace longevity while staying strong, energized, and confident.

 

💡 What You’ll Learn:
✔️ The natural changes that happen as we age (metabolism, muscle, skin, and more).
✔️ The non-negotiables for longevity—muscle retention, metabolic health, brain function, and beyond.
✔️ How our approach to fitness and nutrition shifts over time.
✔️ Navigating body image and health in relationships.

🧠 Quick Fact: A 2022 study in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that higher omega-3 intake (especially DHA) is linked to better cognitive function and slower decline in aging adults.

💬 Let’s Talk! What’s one thing you’re prioritizing for your health this year? Drop it in the comments or tag me on social!
