Read Bormio, a mountain of words: Breathe, Rest, Smile - the keys to living longer

The Department of Culture organizes, every Wednesday in July and August, "Read Bormio, a mountain of words", a series of meetings with various authors.

Reading and discussion of the book "Breathe, Rest, Smile - the keys to living longer" by Tiziano Testori and Antonio Secchi, published by Sperling & Kupfer

Description

Are you ready to discover a new path to longevity made up of ancient wisdom and contemporary science? A fascinating and surprising journey that challenges our certainties and reveals a secret that recent research is confirming with increasingly solid studies: the quality of our breathing and oral health are the first, powerful guardians of the vitality of our cells. The nose and mouth, often overlooked, are the gateways to our biological life, but also the site of silent risks such as inflammation and immune imbalances that can spread throughout the body, accelerate telomere shortening and therefore aging. Yet small daily gestures are enough to ensure the health of these two strategic gateways, which are linked to crucial aspects such as sleep, stress, weight, energy and even sports performance.
