How to Be a Super-Ager and Reduce Inflammation

How to Be a Super-Ager and Reduce Inflammation

This week, we’re talking about how to be a “super-ager,” people in their eighties whose memory performs like someone 30 years younger, and why friendships, not fitness, turned out to be their secret weapon. We’re also digging into a huge new study on potatoes and type 2 diabetes, showing that eating chips three times a week raises risk by 20%, while swapping them for whole grains cuts risk significantly. Plus, the surprising number of almonds you should eat each day to boost your gut health, and what that means for heart health, antioxidants, blood sugar and inflammation. We’ll also look at whether whole almonds or almond butter give you the bigger benefit. And for our wellness trend of the week, we’re exploring why reading books for just 30 minutes a day could add nearly two years to your life, and how swapping even a fraction of your scrolling time for reading could transform your health. All that, plus personal updates and the news that The Wellness Scoop is now going twice weekly!
