Dr. Vonda Wright: Mobility Will Save Your Life

from AGEIST · host David Stewart

How do we live to our potential today? What role does movement and exercise have, and how much is enough? How does hormone replacement help for women? What about HRT for men? Dr. Vonda Wright shares her insights on everything from the effects of exercise after 40, 50, and 60 to the benefits of foam rolling for recovery and performance and hormones. She wants to be healthy, active, vital, and joyful for the rest of her lifespan, and she wants to help others in doing the same by bridging the gap between their health span and lifespan. Fortunately, her research and experience as an orthopedic surgeon, speaker, and author has given her the knowledge to do just that.“What gets me up in the morning, David, is the knowledge that by saving your mobility, I’m going to save your life because there’s not one pill besides exercise and smart nutrition that effects all the diseases that we are commonly plagued with. So that’s what gets my out of bed everyday as an orthopod and an author and a speaker.” “We know that 68% of people do not do any kind of mobility any day of the week. And that’s why about 60% of people in this country can qualify as obese and 30% of our children are obese. And 17% of our children, that we raised, now have diabetes. We need to do something about this now.“Listen to The SuperAge podcast wherever you get your podcasts. Sponsored by InsideTracker: https://bit.ly/3pNeEdUDr. Vonda Wright: https://www.drvondawright.comDr. Vonda Wright’s books: https://www.drvondawright.com/author-and-expert/HOT For Your Health Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hot-for-your-health/id1055206993Additional Resource: https://estrogenmatters.com  Say hi to the AGEIST team!
