While the solutions are simple, building healthy habits is more complicated. Dr. Eric Topol, director of the Scripps Research Translational Institute and author of Super Agers: An Evidence-Based Approach to Longevity, explains why we should aim for a long "healthspan" versus "lifespan," and offers advice on how to build the habits that will help get us there.
