Luuk Simons - "Lifestyle management"

Uploaded on Apr 6, 2011



A long term health enthousiast and thinker.

That's Luuk Simons. Luuk's mission is to empower people to be as healthy as they can be and to help them age successfully, based on life sciences findings.

Luuk will talk about the lessons from successful aging research and lifestyle medicine for our personal well-being. On the other hand he discusses how the doubling of our health care costs in the coming decade, to 16.000,- Eur per working Dutch person, will become unsustainable. Luuk shares an inspiring vision with us on how he believes employer-driven lifestyle programs can significantly improve our health and bend the cost curve.
