I talk about healthspan and longevity a lot on this podcast and I believe for good reason. We're living longer than ever but right now, sicker than ever. Our goal should be to enjoy our lives throughout the entire lifespan and my guest today is a chief science officer who's dedicating his life to this very area.

Chris Burres is a published author, host of the Longevity Summit, and Chief Scientist of MyVitalC that helps with better sleep, vitality, mental acuity, and better vision. We discuss how a toxicity study turned into a longevity study, the science behind MyVitalC, the importance of mindset, and more!
