3. Understanding Our Adversaries – Part I

During the last two modules, we have been gathering information and learning how to conceptualize the different aspects of health and longevity. In the first part of Module 3, we will start putting that information to use in creating a personalized “Risk Narrative,” a framework we will use to manage this information. This will guide you to understand the challenges you are most likely to face both now and in the decades ahead. While this can take a lot of work, building out your Longevity Risk Assessment™ is one of the most important things you can do as you think about your longevity journey. In the second part of Module 3, we will learn about our first two horsemen: cardiovascular disease and cancer. We will also briefly cover an often underappreciated “fifth horseman,” accidental death. By the end of the module, you will learn about these risks to your longevity and begin to think about how they may impact your life.
