This is the standout book on how to live longer -- Chris van Tulluken, author of Ultra-Processed People Drop everything and read this book -- George Monbiot, author of Regenesis ‘One of the most important voices of reason of the COVID era’ -- Owen Jones How Not To Die (Too Soon) is a fascinating, challenging and thought provoking read. It completely changes the perspective on human health and who bears responsibility for protecting it.

Writing with verve and clarity, she draws from scientific research as well as her own sound expertise to craft a compelling case for the policy changes that may help to prevent disease and untimely death -- Shilpa Ravella, author of A Silent Fire Dr. Sridhar writes a deeply accessible and actionable book about how to make ourselves, our communities and our futures healthier…I can’t recommend it highly enough -- Chelsea Clinton
