    Reject Normal Aging: The Longevity Blueprint with Dr. Jerry Mixon

    Dr. Jerry Mixon is the Founder of Longevity Medical Clinic and a pioneer in preventative medicine, hormone optimization, and clinical longevity with over fifty years of medical experience. Top 3 Value Bombs 1. Aging is not simply a consequence of time passing; it is largely driven by declining hormones, increasing inflammation, and the accumulation of senescent ("zombie") cells that impair healing and regeneration. 2. Building and consistently using muscle is one of the most powerful longevity strategies because muscle releases hundreds of compounds that support brain health, tissue repair, immune function, and healthy aging. 3. The best approach to longevity is proactive, not reactive. Waiting until symptoms appear means waiting until damage has already occurred; intervention should begin when decline first starts.
