Health & Longevity

Today on Health & Longevity, Dr. John Westerdahl's features a special lecture presented by Jay M. Hoffman, Ph.D. - Nutritionist and Longevity Expert, President Emeritus of the National Geriatrics Society. Dr. Hoffman presents the lecture entitled, Food Chemistry In Its Relationship To Body Chemistry. Dr. Hoffman was a leading expert and pioneering nutritionist in the field of nutrition, health and longevity. Recognizing that most medical schools do not teach the topics of food and nutrition to their medical students, Dr. Hoffman believed that the missing link in the medical curriculum was for medical students to understand the relationship between food chemistry and the chemistry of the body. He discusses some of these important relationships in this lecture as it relates to human health and longevity, and disease prevention and treatment.
