The simple health habits of top longevity doctors and scientists, who follow the science not trendsNEWS | 30 April 2026At 52, I fully recognize that I'm aging and I'm not where I used to be. Part of that is making me more mindful that, for example, I can't outrun a bad diet. I try to be thoughtful about the foods I'm eating. Even though I eat pretty well, I'm always tempted by the stuff we're all tempted by.
For me, physical and mental health and happiness are associated with how active I am. So it's easy for me to exercise. If I can run, bike, and/or swim most days of the week, I'm a pretty happy guy.
I know I may differ from some of my colleagues, but I am much more about healthy aging than longevity.
Success, to me, would be living an average lifespan, but until the final weeks of my life, I hope I'm doing what I love.
