How can we age well?
James and the Hay Festival audience try to conquer ageing, guided by a panel of experts.
From the Hay Festival, James and a panel of experts explain what we can all do to help ourselves age well.
We discover what’s going on in our bodies when we age, the difference between biological and chronological age, as well as getting the audience moving for a physical test.
James is joined by gerontologist Sarah Harper from the University of Oxford, biomedical scientist Georgina Ellison-Hughes from King’s College London, and doctor Norman Lazarus to understand how exercise, diet, and mental health all have a part to play in how we age.
