What role does fitness play in preventive healthcare after 50? I believe it's a big one, as does my guest this week on the Optimal Aging podcast, the show all about getting more mature adults to live healthier lives.

New York urologist Dr. David Shusterman says more mature adults are understanding the relationship between Exercise and healthy living — and they want to make the most of their lives, regardless of age.

We talk about changing hormones, prostate health, sex, Botox — and, yes, the importance of staying physically fit. 

It's a helpful conversation and provocative in the best way. I hope you enjoy it. And please subscribe to Optimal Aging, leave a review, recommend us to a friend.
