Salt Lake City, UT – Geriatric specialist Dr. Harry Lodge says that we humans have achieved staggering longevity. If you take care of yourself, you have a very good chance of living until you're 90, and it's the Boomer generation that's redefining aging in America. Lodge joins Doug in studio to talk about the social and biological influences on aging, and what it means to "grow old" in the 21st century.

Monday, January 14 at 6:30 p.m., Harry Lodge will give a free lecture and book signing at the Age Wellness Center. The center is located at 2670 S 2000 East Suite 205. For more information, click here or call 801-467-6554.
