How Not to Age

Getting older doesn’t have to mean getting sicker. Inspired by the dietary and lifestyle patterns of centenarians in the “blue zones,” the author, Michael Greger, MD, condenses the most important evidence-based research on the optimal components of successful aging. There are eleven pathways for aging in our bodies’ cells and we can disrupt each of them through nutrition to delay and maybe reverse malfunction. 

His book statements are supported by over 8,359 citations. All the proceeds he receives from his books and speaking are donated to charity.
