Lifestyle Habits and Mortality

In this episode of Fitness Rocks I interview Dr. Rob Van Dam, an Assistant Professor at the Harvard School of Public Health, about his recent paper in the British Medical Journal.  Dr. Van Dam and his colleagues report on lifestyle data collected on over 80,000 nurses for a 24 year period.
