San Diegans can learn strategies for living a longer, healthier life at a public keynote address by Dr. Valter Longo, author of “The Longevity Diet.” The keynote is the only public portion of the 18th annual Natural Supplements Conference, a continuing educational event for medical professionals hosted by the Scripps Center for Integrative Medicine. Dr. Longo is director of the Longevity Institute at the University of Southern California and is also director of the Program on Longevity and Cancer at the IFOM Institute of Molecular Oncology in Milan, Italy. In “The Longevity Diet,” Dr. Longo describes the lifelong health benefits of an easy-to-follow “everyday” diet, combined with short periods of fasting-mimicking diet (FMD). He developed the FMD following 25 years of global research on aging, nutrition and disease, and after making a series of remarkable discoveries in mice and humans. He discovered that specific diets can activate stem cells and promote regeneration and rejuvenation in multiple organs to reduce the risk for diabetes, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and heart disease. His daily nutrition plan, together with periodic fasting-mimicking techniques, has yielded startling results in the lab and in clinical trials. FMD provides the health benefits of a calorie-restrictive diet, while avoiding common fasting-related stressors such as low energy and sleeplessness. All who attend the keynote address in-person must be free of COVID-19 symptoms, wear face masks and remain physically distanced. Virtual participation will be available for those who recently have been exposed to or tested positive for COVID-19 and/or are symptomatic. Payment by credit card or debit card only, no cash.
