About this listen

 Forget the kale smoothies and the bench press for a moment there’s a "silent engine" driving your health that you might be neglecting. In this episode of Healthwise, Kartik (aka Ilahi) dives into the science of Social Fitness and how our relationships directly impact our physical biology. We try to figure out why chronic loneliness can be as damaging as smoking 15 cigarettes a day and how to avoid "biological weathering". From building your own "Modern Moai" to the "Seven-Minute Rule" for busy schedules, learn how to treat your social life like a workout for ultimate longevity. Don't just eat well, connect well.
