<p>What if ageing well had less to do with your genes, your skincare routine or the supplements you take ... and more to do with your immune system?</p><br><p>Most of us think about immunity as something that only matters when we’re fighting off a cold or flu. But actually, it’s quietly working behind the scenes every single day shaping how we feel, how we recover and how long we stay well.</p><br><p>Our immune health is also constantly evolving and changing over our lifecycle. From birth to our 20s, midlife and beyond our immune system plays a critical role in how we feel, our risk of disease and how well we age.</p><br><p><em>Dr Jenna Macciochi is an immunologist specialising in the intersection of nutrition, movement, mind-body practices and lifestyle with the immune system in health and disease. </em></p><p><em>She’s also a brilliant science communicator who has a beautiful way of weaving science with story. In her new book, Immune to Age, Dr Jenna reframes immunity not as a fortress that springs into action, but as a lifelong partner guiding us through the seasons of our lives from the day we’re born to the way we age.</em></p><p>We dive into:</p><ul><li>Why inflammation is not just good or bad</li><li>How your immune system changes with age</li><li>What to focus on in your 20s, 40s and beyond</li><li>The role of inflammation, infection and stress in ageing</li><li>Supplements like creatine, collagen, taurine, peptides and nootropic mushrooms</li></ul><p><em>Follow  @dr_jenna_macciochi and preorder the book “</em><a href="https://amzn.to/3Epp3d2" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Immune to Age</em></a><em>”</em></p><br><p>🎬 <a href="http://tdk.link/pod_sn_yt" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Watch the podcast on YouTube here</a></p><p><strong>📱</strong> <a href="http://tdk.link/pod_sn_app" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Download The Doctor’s Kitchen app</a></p><p>🌐 <a href="http://tdk.link/pod_sn_web" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">View full show notes, including guest details, on our website</a></p><br><p>☕️ <a href="https://exhalecoffee.com/products/rupy-bundle" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Try Exhale Coffee here</a></p><p>🥗 <a href="http://tdk.link/pod_sn_mplan" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join the newsletter and receive a 7 day meal plan</a></p><p>📷 <a href="http://tdk.link/pod_sn_ig" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Follow on Instagram</a></p><p><br></p><hr><p> Hosted on Acast.
