Dr. Alex Jadad and Tamen JadadGarcia: In this talk at NextMed Health, a father–daughter duo of health experts redefines what it means to be healthy—and it has a lot to do with where you spend your time.

Dr. Jadad created the widely popular Jadad scale for assessing clinical trials. Now, he’s combined his medical expertise with his daughter’s health entrepreneurship for a joint exploration into what it truly means to be “healthy.”

Toxic Stress Load (TSL) is the term that describes the build up of negative physical and psychological changes that result from your ongoing need to respond to challenges. It is the baggage, the scars, and the tensions collected through life. When your TSL becomes overwhelming, it triggers changes in your body that are so profound that they are equivalent to accelerated aging.''
