Unlocking Longevity: Lifestyle Medicine for South Asian Women

In this episode, I speak with Dr Deepal Amin, a GP and transformational coach, about the importance of lifestyle medicine and its role in promoting longevity, especially for South Asian women. It’s common to hear that we put our health on the back burner because of so many other competing priorities, but without our health, we wouldn’t get very far. I believe the tide is turning, and women are looking for ways to focus on their health in a way that does not only rely on medication but lifestyle changes. During this conversation, we went deep into many aspects of health where Deepal is personally working to make a difference. We discuss the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, the significance of personalised health interventions, and the holistic approach of lifestyle medicine, encompassing physical, mental, and social well-being. In fact, healthy relationships are also good for health! Deepal shares her personal journey into this field, the unique health risks faced by South Asian women, and the importance of prioritising health amidst busy lives. Our conversation also touches on proactive health measures and advanced diagnostics that can help individuals take charge of their health.There’s a lot here to think of when it comes to health, but Deepal’s advice is that having balance is important, take one area at a time, and focus on what you can do.
