- Business
Good health has never been more important or as top of mind as it has been this past year. And many folks wish they’d taken care of their health before they lost it.
“Most people think disease is instantaneous,” said Dr. Richard Harris. However, many physical ailments can take years to develop. Lifestyle choices have a profound impact on health and quality of life. While lifespan is a common focus, Dr. Harris says that striving for health span – the duration of one’s good health – is even more important. His mission is to help people live better quality lives and to recognize how the choices they make can affect their health.
In this episode of What I Wish I Knew with Mike Irwin and Simon Daw, Dr. Harris talks about the primary obstacles to healthy living, how the mental side of health affects the physical, health span versus lifespan, and four simple steps each person can take to help improve their health.
Dr. Richard Harris is an internal medicine physician, pharmacist, and an expert in holistic lifestyle medicine. A “double doc”, he is a graduate of the McGovern School of Medicine (MD), University of Texas at Austin (Doctor of Pharmacy), and the University of Houston (MBA). Along with his medical practice, he is founder of Great Health & Wellness, Harris Medical Consultants, Managing Director of New Spectrum Educational Consultants, and co-founder of the 40 Acres Fund. He is also host of the Strive for Great Health podcast.
