Ep. 230 - R.P. Eddy: Why Warnings Matter (A Podcast About the Future)

3 years ago when Suzanne Somers came on the podcast to discuss her book A New Way to Age, I was blown away by her depth of knowledge and personal results in the field. Suzanne passed away this week, 23 years after her cancer diagnosis. Today, we're re-airing her episode about living a vibrant life._____________Suzanne Somers has sex twice a day.She's 73."I'm horniest on the 12th day of the month," she said. "When there's a full moon.""I'll never look at a full moon the same ever again," I said.She laughed. And told me why she's feeling younger... even though she's getting older. Which she writes about in her new bestselling book, "A New Way to Age: The Most Cutting-Edge Advances in Antiaging."Some might say "an actress" isn't qualified to write a scientific book about aging.But that's stupid. One: she's human. With human problems that lead her to see real doctors. The best doctors. With cutting-edge formulas to beat aging.She told me, "I've beat cancer three times," she said. And now she plans to live into her hundreds.But with a caveat..."If I'm going to be alive, then I want to be alive. What's alive? I want to have a sex drive. I want to have nice shiny hair. I don't want to have unexplained weight gain. I don't want to have insomnia. I don't want to have night sweats. I don't want to have hot flashes. I don't want to be forgetful."That's what this book and this podcast is about. She breaks down:- how to prevent memory loss- how to keep your sex drive even as you age- how to have a good quality of life into your hundreds- how to access the latest age-defying technologyAnd we invited our friend Dr. Dean Mitchell to help back up her research.And give us the science we need to be just as horny.Full moon.
