Live at MATTER: A Conversation with Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel
Jan 15, 3:00 pm
Listen back to a discussion on simple, evidence-based strategies for a longer, healthier and more meaningful life.
The wellness industry is on pace to reach $9 trillion by 2028. Every day we hear about another new miracle supplement, must-have wearable or health routine — and yet, are we actually living longer, healthier lives? Or are we just stressing ourselves out with an ever-expanding “Wellness Industrial Complex”?
In his new book, Eat Your Ice Cream: Six Simple Rules for a Long and Healthy Life, Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel shares his clear, evidence-based answers to wellness culture. He joined us at MATTER for a conversation on how, drawing on decades of scholarship and clinical experience, he has distilled longevity science into a set of clear rules to live by: sleep well, exercise, keep learning, build social connections — and don’t be afraid, on occasion, to eat dessert.
