Panel Talk: Can We Really Eat Our Way to a Longer, Healthier Life?

A panel delve into in how the food we eat can preserve our life and what the evidence really tells us about ageing well.
About this Event

For centuries, we've focused on preserving the life of the food we eat. Today, we're increasingly interested in how the food we eat can preserve our own.

As consumers become more interested in living better for longer, longevity is emerging as a powerful force shaping shopping habits and food choices. From fermented foods, functional mushrooms and gut health shots to personalised nutrition platforms, blood testing kits, supplements and GLP-1-driven nutrient-dense meal plans, the market is awash with products promising longer, healthier lives. But how much is grounded in science and how much is simply marketing?

Our panel of experts will cut through the noise, separating fact from fiction and looking beyond the language of wellness, biohacking and optimisation to explore what the evidence really tells us about ageing well.

Taking place on 21th September – which happens to be World Alzheimer's Day – this thought-provoking discussion will examine what genuinely matters when it comes to extending not just lifespan, but healthspan too.

Panel includes:

• Dr David Cox, health journalist and bestselling author of ‘The Age Code’
• Monica Martini, founder & CEO of Tulā Code, clinically dosed bioactives delivered in premium dark chocolate
• Dr Federica Amati: Head Nutritionist at ZOE and best selling author of 'The Appetite Reset'
• Professor Caroline Childs: Professor of Nutritional Sciences at the University of Southampton

Ticket includes welcome drink, 3 canapes and a night of scintillating conversation.

If you need to cancel, we can only offer you a refund if you cancel within 3 days of the date your ticket is booked for.
