Summary

While many of us are doing all the "right" things to set back the clock now, many of us want and need to upgrade our aging plan--we want access to new breakthroughs and advanced techniques that keep us well ahead of the detrimental effects of wear and tear on the body。 The truth is there's no single thing that tames aging。 Fortunately, health and nutrition pioneer Ann Louise Gittleman puts her learned and lived wisdom to work, providing a comprehensive plan that features the most up-to-date information and cutting edge therapies that address every concern that comes with aging--from the annoying external appearances such as thinning hair and age spots to the damaging internal effects such as heart disease and mental decline。

Ann Louise's Radical Longevity Power Plan offers a specific set of actions to take, based on a set of seven foundational "rules":
#1: Immunity is Everything
#2: Take on Toxic Overload and Detox Daily
#3: Activate and Celebrate Cellular Rejuvenation
#4: Free Up Fascia and Find Youthful Movement
#5: Minerals Matter
#6: Stop AGES (Advanced Glycation End Products)
#7: Optimize the Gut/Brain Connection

With detailed meal plans featuring specific fortifying foods, easy-to-prepare recipes, and tips to activate the age-busting cooking techniques that will give you bonus years, you can put the rules into practice。 And once you have learned the Power Plan, you can customize your approach using Ann Louise's targeted strategies, which address epigenetics, reversal of developing disease, and actions that change how you experience life on a daily basis。 The result? Freedom from accepting the limitations that "aging" once meant。 These targeted tactics are game changers where nothing is inevitable and a radical new era of super-ageing is within reach。

This book includes seven rules to increase your longevity, a diet plan and recipes and specific suggestions for certain areas such as brain health, heart health, skeletal system, and skin。 This book has good advice but it so comprehensive that it might be overwhelming for the average person。 If you are well versed in health and want to target one or two areas for improvement, this book might be helpful。 One concern I had was the volume of supplements that were recommended。 The list was too long This book includes seven rules to increase your longevity, a diet plan and recipes and specific suggestions for certain areas such as brain health, heart health, skeletal system, and skin。 This book has good advice but it so comprehensive that it might be overwhelming for the average person。 If you are well versed in health and want to target one or two areas for improvement, this book might be helpful。 One concern I had was the volume of supplements that were recommended。 The list was too long and, as a nutritionist that all would be needed。 Gittleman did give recommended ranges for a variety of health markers (fasting insulin, fasting glucose, ferritin, cholesterol, triglycerides among others) that could be useful。 I received a complementary copy from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more
