Inspired by Michael J. Fox’s declaration of his mission to “don’t fall down”, Dr. Armstrong and Corbin Bruton discuss Parkinson’s disease and preventing falls. The hosts discuss on recommendations for diet and exercise for preventing the physical decline and symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. Building on “Carmine’s Law” (see Episode 19) the roles of strength and posture are discussed in relation to balance and aging well.
“After year of multiple broken bones, Michael J. Fox says he has one mission: ‘Don't fall down’."
