How do your food choices affect your health and longevity? Learn how the diversity of your gut microbiome directly impacts your physical health. Hear about Stanford-led food studies that demonstrate the restorative power of plant-based diets to reduce your biological age. And discover the power of culinary medicine, a growing field that brings together nutrition and culinary knowledge to treat food-related diseases and help people move away from lifestyles that lead to chronic disease and toward those that promote health and well-being.
