The Six Pillars of Living Longer & Healthier in Retirement with Dr. Bobby Dubois - Part 1

Today, I’m speaking with Dr. Bobby Dubois. Dr. Bobby is a Harvard-educated physician, Board-Certified in Internal Medicine with over 25 years of experience. He’s an author, entrepreneur, wellness doctor, and Ironman Triathlete. Most recently, he led a health policy research organization in Washington, D.C. (National Pharmaceutical Council) as its Chief Science Officer and Executive Vice President. Prior to that, he served as the Chief Medical Officer of Cerner Life Sciences and co-founded Proto Care Sciences. He's the host of the Live Long and Well podcast and has made it his mission to help others cut through the noise and live longer with more energy as they age. The simple fact is, most retirees and pre-retirees want more time, energy, and independence to enjoy the life they’ve worked so hard to build. However, the reality is that longevity without good health won’t achieve the lifestyle that most retirees envisioned during their working years. In part 1 of this 2-part conversation, we delve into the life-extending benefits of aerobic exercise, the scientific advantages of consistent sleep, and the surprising role of relationships in promoting increased longevity. Dr. Bobby outlines his six pillars of health and explains how to apply them in retirement. And here’s the good news: it’s never too late to start. In its simplest form, his advice is strikingly similar to what you’d hear from a financial advisor: It’s much better to start saving and exercising young, but it’s never too late to start. If you want to live not only longer, but better, this episode provides a clear path and roadmap to get there. GET A FREE COPY OF DR.
