Bill Rawls | Looking after our cells to age well

Aging, according to Bill Rawls, MD, is the loss of functional cells as we go through life. An author and physician, Dr. Rawls is on a mission to elevate the importance of  caring for the basic building blocks of our body.  Our cells, he says, are the key to healthy longevity.   The fourth generation physician, from Raleigh in North Carolina,  confronted a mid-life health crisis of his own that transformed his view of personal wellness.  He now focusses his energies on holistic health interventions and the power of herbal supplements.  In his latest book, The Cellular Wellness Solution, Dr Rawls lays out what he sees as the limitations of modern medicine and the possibilities offered by alternative treatments. 

In this interview we cover:

  • Confronting a mid-life health crisis that led to a transformative approach to wellness
  • Understanding the link between a lack of sleep and stress
  • Adopting herbal medicine 
  • Defining the value of good cellular health
  • What it means to lose cells as we age and why maximum lifespan appears to stop at about 120
  • Carbs, fats and protein.  Getting the balance right. 
  • The numbers game and hemoglobin A1C or HbA1c 
  • Fasting and keto diets
  • Applying the science to ourselves and where to start?
  • Personal accountability and healthcare
