Today, we’re thrilled to welcome Dr. Vonda Wright, a highly experienced double boarded orthopedic surgeon with a deep understanding of aging, healthspan, and longevity.
With decades of experience, Dr. Wright shares how her journey—from her early days as a cancer nurse to her path in orthopedic surgery and her research on muscle and metabolic health—has shaped her unique approach to healthy aging. 🩺🌿
In this conversation, Dr. Wright dives into what it means to age well, providing real, actionable insights to help us live our healthiest, most active lives. We cover so much valuable information, including:
Aging vs. Longevity: Why aging doesn’t have to mean physical or mental decline. We explore the difference between lifespan (how long you live) and healthspan (how well you live). Dr. Wright reveals that healthy aging is within reach and doesn’t have to mean giving up our vitality or mobility. 🌱
The Power of Muscle Health & Movement: Did you know that our muscle health has a huge impact on our overall longevity? Dr. Wright explains why staying active, lifting weights, and building muscle can be the ultimate key to aging well. We discuss how to maintain lean muscle, keep our bones strong, and how daily movement supports physical and mental health across the years. 💪🧠
Hormone Health & Its Role in Aging: For many, understanding hormone health can be complex. Dr. Wright breaks down the importance of hormone balance, particularly as we reach midlife, and why it plays such a critical role in keeping our bodies healthy and resilient. Learn how hormones like estrogen and testosterone impact everything from energy levels to brain health, and how to make informed choices about hormone replacement therapy. 🔄🧬
Nutrition, Sleep & Anti-Inflammatory Choices: Aging gracefully requires more than exercise alone. Dr. Wright dives into how nutrition, quality sleep, and an anti-inflammatory diet can all influence our healthspan. She shares practical tips, from avoiding refined sugar and choosing high-quality proteins to incorporating nutrient-dense foods into your daily meals for optimized cellular health. 🍃🥗
Rethinking “Normal” Aging: One of the most empowering messages Dr. Wright shares is the idea that “normal” doesn’t have to mean inevitable decline. Drawing on her experiences in sports medicine and aging research, she emphasizes that we’re not just “victims of aging” but active participants in our health journey. Through mindset, lifestyle choices, and small daily actions, we can redefine what aging means in today’s world. 🌍✨
