Overview

"Do you not wish you had a longer lifespan? What's more? This book is a how-to guide for living a long and healthy life, packed with cutting-edge advice on nutrition, how to get most out of your workouts and nights of sleep, and how to deal with your mental and emotional wellbeing. Despite its many achievements, conventional medicine has made little headway in combating the leading causes of death as we age: cardiovascular disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. As a result, it often prolongs longevity at the price of health span or quality of life by intervening with therapies that come too late to be effective. A tailored, proactive approach for longevity, in which action is taken immediately rather than later, must replace this outmoded paradigm. This is not ""biohacking,"" but rather a scientific method for increasing our physical, mental, and emotional health and elongating our lives. The primary objective is not to prescribe specific actions but to teach you how to formulate your own long-term health strategy. Readers of Forever Young will learn: To what extent your true risk of dying from a heart attack is not captured by the cholesterol test administered at your yearly checkup. - You may already be experiencing the onset of age-related chronic illnesses, including one that affects the liver yet is often misdiagnosed. - Why exercise is the most effective ""drug"" for promoting lifespan, and how to get started preparing for the ""Centenarian Decathlon."" Why Why you should stop wasting your time and energy on fad diets and start customizing your nutritional intake with the help of science and information technology. Why prioritizing one's physical well-being above one's mental and emotional well-being may be the worst trap of all. We have significantly more control over our aging and lifespan than we give them credit for. With the appropriate guidance, you may chart a course that will allow you to outlast your genes and improve upon each successive decade of your life."
