We'll talk to you soon.

Thanks for getting the truth out and visit the death of aging.com.

The death of aging.com. Definitely.

Everybody get this book.

It is a blockbuster and something will help you and your family.

No, no, no, Charles, you're missing the point here.

I'm a, I'm on the government Department of Health, uh, Disability and Ageing website here-

Yeah

... about health, and the thing you need to understand...

My guest is Galit Nimrod, a professor in the Department of Communication Studies at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, whose research explored well-being in later life.

She previously wrote The Aging of Aquarius about people who came of age in the 1960s and what happened as they grew older.

In her new book, Senior Land, Aging in a Retirement Metropolis, She takes us inside the villages in central Florida.

She lived there for two months, participated in and observed daily life, and conducted in-depth interviews with 40 residents.

Focus on life, career, travels, food, family, friends, all those things right now.

It may be having an impact into your weight indirectly or directly, mm-kay? And we are not gonna say, "How do I get the old body back?" We're gonna say, "How can I optimize this body I have right now? What can I do? How can I build the strongest, healthiest, most confident version of my body right now?" That's what we're gonna think about, ladies, okay? To me, when I always talk about pro-aging, it's not about anti-improvement.

Pro-aging means, "You know what? This is where I am.

The clock is coming.

I'm embracing it, and I'm gonna do some things to make sure that I am the best version of me." It's not anti-improvement, it's just excellence of self is what we should think about, all right? Your midlife body is not a failed younger body.
