Hey -
New episode today.
Most men skip the physical for years. Almost every one of them shows up at the eye doctor when he cannot read the menu. This week's guest has been on the other side of that chair for 35 years.
Dr. Jim Beckwith is an optometrist in Las Vegas, a precision medicine fellow, and the author of Positively Not Old, out September 29. He is the one doctor who can look at your blood vessels without cutting you open, and what he sees back there often shows up years before you feel it.
Inside this one:
What is actually happening to your eyes in middle age
How a dog eating a pair of glasses led to a leukemia diagnosis caught in time
The one question that turns a glasses visit into a health check
Why retirement feels like summer vacation with no new school year
His own jungle emergency and the two words he gives every man: get it fixed
Pre-order the book: Positively Not Old, September 29. drjbeckwith.com

Don’t fade.
