The School of Greatness · She Was Given a Death Sentence at 65. She Lived to 96 | Dr. Michael Greger · 28 Nov 2025 podcast

I want people to eat berries every day, the healthiest kinds of fruits, a tablespoon of grown flaxseed, a quarter teaspoon of turmeric, kind of on down the list.

Um, again, just to kind of inspire people to kind of think, um, and then kind of track their progress, kind of make a game out of it.

Um, and look on the road, I'm not even hitting, you know, I'm lucky if I hit half, but I mean, it's just, again, kind of an aspirational kind of, if you really did have control over your environment, uh,

This is really the kind of things we want to include in one's daily routine.

Yeah.

In terms of anti-aging foods, this Global Burden of Disease Study, which I mentioned before, again, the largest systemic analysis funded by the Bill and Linda Gates Foundation, found that the food associated with the largest expected life expectancy gains

are legumes, these beans, split peas, chickpeas, lentils.

In fact, one thing we can do is boost our intake of beans or lentil soup or hummus.

And we think it's because they're the most concentrated sources of prebiotics, the resistant starch and dietary fiber that feeds the good bacteria in our gut.

And that has implications for decreasing inflammation, improving our immunity, improving muscle strength, muscle quality, muscle mass in frail individuals.

Just by changing a microbiome.

In fact, you can do these so-called fecal transplant studies where you can- You take a healthy poop and put it in a sick person.

It's crazy, right?

And you can actually change their biology to make- That's crazy.

It's crazy.

Absolutely crazy.

But that's how we can prove cause and effect because like, well, yeah, you feed someone a healthy diet.

How do we know their gut bugs have anything to do with it?

Ah, well, we can we can control for that and you can do it, you know, and so they right.

So you can make, you know, you know, mice more fit, less fit by giving them, you know, healthy poop.
