#486 BITESIZE | The #1 Secret to Living a Longer and Healthier Life | Professor Rose Anne Kenny

Feel Better, Live More with Dr Rangan Chatterjee

Today's guest brings valuable insights about what we can do to make sure we age healthily and happily.

Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my weekly podcast for your mind, body, and heart. Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests.

Today’s clip is from episode 400 of the podcast with Professor Rose Anne Kenny.

Professor Kenny is a medical gerontologist and Regius Professor of Physic and Chair of Medical Gerontology at Trinity College Dublin. She’s the Founding Principal Investigator of Ireland’s largest population study of ageing (TILDA) and the author of the international bestseller Age Proof: The New Science of Living a Longer and Healthier Life.

In our conversation, she revealed that while 20% of ageing is genetic and can’t be changed, 80% is epigenetic. In other words, we have the power to influence how quickly or how slowly we age.

In this clip, she shares some of the simple, practical things we can all do to embrace the 80% that's within our control.
