In this episode of AGE BETTER, we dive into Dr. Studer’s groundbreaking ideas from his new book, "The Brain That Chooses Itself", and explore how intentional choices, novelty, motivation, and even small amounts of discomfort can reshape your brain and extend your healthspan.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by health information… or wondered which choices actually move the needle… this conversation will change how you think about your brain, your habits, and your future.
