About Me

My name is Dr. John Thurairajah. I am a board-certified Physician & YouTuber passionate about promoting healthy living to keep you young. On this site, you can explore tips and tools for you to lead a happier, healthier and more productive life.

To achieve that feeling of well-being, you will have to take care of both your mental and physical health. Making your health a top priority is the first step in that journey.

As a board-certified internist and geriatrician, I have many years of experience in navigating the health problems that people are confronted with as they age. My tips and advice can help you learn and internalize actionable health strategies that will promote healthy living. I have additional certification in nutritional medicine and know that many times what we eat and not eat determines what happens to our bodies over time. I have worked as a hospitalist, in the intensive care setting, in an outpatient care setting and as a hospice and palliative care physician. I have taken care of people from the very young to those who were at the end of their lives and have learned that good sleep, nutrition, exercise and mental well-being all play a role in increasing the quality of our lives. By following me on this site, I hope we can all live the good life.

Join me on our journey promoting our physical and mental well-being.
