CE Showcase ASM2017: Live Long and Prosper: Lifestyle Medicine in Dentistry
My encounter with Dr. Peter Jacobsen was enjoyable and full of valuable content. Dr. Jacobsen is a speaker at #ASM150 and his session is titled: Live Long and Prosper: Lifestyle Medicine in Dentistry. Chiraz Guessaier, CDA Oasis Manager |
Highlights
We get what we got by way of genes; now it’s up to us to make them last. Are there foods associated with long life? Is exercise healthy? Are there miracle drugs we should all be taking? What are the secrets of the Blue Zones on the planet, where people predictably live over 100 years of age? What laboratory tests best outline your health and point to foods you should be eating or medicines you should be taking?
This presentation will provide a unique and interesting perspective on ways we can support our health and the health of our patients.
