An American physician, inventor of aerobics, author of numerous best-selling books, creator of the famous world-known Cooper Test, founder of a cutting-edge center for preventive medicine, and collaborator on various projects around the world with different organizations.

He is amongst those dedicated to raising global awareness of the importance of multi-level prevention.

🤝Beyond the fact that, at 94, he is a living example of his approach, meeting Dr. Cooper at his center in Dallas, along with my friend Jennifer Leogier, whom I thank for supporting me so well, was one of the highlights of my life.

- the role of spirituality

- factors of longevity
