In this episode of the Visibly Fit Podcast, I had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Michael Greger, a renowned physician, New York Times bestselling author, and speaker on nutrition. Dr. Greger shared insights from his latest book, “How Not to Age,” focusing on practical solutions for healthy aging. We delved into various topics related to nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle modifications to promote longevity.
