I liked this book but didn't like it as much as I thought I would。 I enjoy Ann Louise Gittleman on podcasts etc。 The structure of the book is very sensible and has nice lists that are easy to reference and they make digesting the information very organized and easy to follow。 That is not easy to do with this much information。I am very immersed in learning about health and wellness for about the last 4 years。 I think this book probably just covered too much so it didn't go deep enough （For me） on I liked this book but didn't like it as much as I thought I would。 I enjoy Ann Louise Gittleman on podcasts etc。 The structure of the book is very sensible and has nice lists that are easy to reference and they make digesting the information very organized and easy to follow。 That is not easy to do with this much information。I am very immersed in learning about health and wellness for about the last 4 years。 I think this book probably just covered too much so it didn't go deep enough （For me） on any given subject。 I appeciated some insights on copper and hormones that I didn't already know。 There were nice reminders on things like plastics and aluminum。 I was hoping to learn more about hormones but I think that's probably just too complicated of a topic to cover in a book that has this broad of a swipe of ideas。 It suggests that we test and monitor hormones every three months but I don't think that's something the vast majority of women around the world will be able to do， or would have access too。。。 and to me that was sort of the primary direction。The questionnaire had a reminder that air travel creates a radiation exposure but then didn't really circle back to what we can do if we need to fly frequently。I would say this is a 5 star book for someone starting their quest into health and wellness where it can get you a little into each of the topics so that you can figure out where you might want to focus。 It's also probably a 5 star book for someone looking for general health and wellness knowledge。 I don't regret reading it but would have likely gotten a digital kindle copy rather than the hardcover if I had more reviews to read in advance。 。。。more

This is an extremely thorough book about what sabotages our health in our older years， covering everything from sex life to skin and bones to Alzheimer's。 Gittleman gives us 7 rules to live by in order to slow down aging and reverse age-related issues， then gives us chapters telling us the best foods， supplements， lifestyle changes， etc。 for our brains， joints， bones， skin， and so on。 It's heavily researched and footnoted with a huge amount of information。 My only gripe is that she recommends so This is an extremely thorough book about what sabotages our health in our older years， covering everything from sex life to skin and bones to Alzheimer's。 Gittleman gives us 7 rules to live by in order to slow down aging and reverse age-related issues， then gives us chapters telling us the best foods， supplements， lifestyle changes， etc。 for our brains， joints， bones， skin， and so on。 It's heavily researched and footnoted with a huge amount of information。 My only gripe is that she recommends so many supplements that it seems that nobody could take that many， and she makes nearly every one sound imperative。 She also recommends a brand that she's an "ambassador" for ad nauseum， which ended up feeling like an ad pretty quickly。 Even the product recommendations in the end have affiliate codes for things like water filtration systems。 To her credit， she also lists brands of many other products that she's not financially tied to， but it did take away from the professionalism of the book at times。 Despite that， it's an extremely thorough book with great suggestions to extend our health far longer in life。I read a digital ARC of this book via NetGalley。 。。。more

Should be required reading though one has to take the supplement recommendations with a grain of salt。 You cannot take everything Gittleman recommends， and I assume she knows this， but doesn't say so or prioritize。 The nutrition info is pretty solid， though I recommend reading a bit on traditional and primal eating and then balancing it with the AGEs and the Omega 6 info in this book， plus all the fantastic info on veggies and plant foods in this book， will do nicely。 Recipes are too light on tr Should be required reading though one has to take the supplement recommendations with a grain of salt。 You cannot take everything Gittleman recommends， and I assume she knows this， but doesn't say so or prioritize。 The nutrition info is pretty solid， though I recommend reading a bit on traditional and primal eating and then balancing it with the AGEs and the Omega 6 info in this book， plus all the fantastic info on veggies and plant foods in this book， will do nicely。 Recipes are too light on traditional fats and animal proteins for me， and I advise everyone to avoid tofu。 But the science and lifestyle info， supplement recommendations （again， you'll need to pick and choose）， and fantastic info on vegetable， acids， and other dietary constituents is all fantastic。 Highly recommend this book。 I've been studying lifestyle and nutrition for 2 decades， and learned several new things。 。。。more

Based on her latest book， Ann Louise Gittleman shows no signs of slowing down in her early 70s。 She has been busy reading material on health issues that often occur as we age， especially in the “third trimester of our lives。” Her goal with Radical Longevity is to give the reader strategies that answer your body’s “distress calls immediately and effectively” before they progress into disease and illness。 She covers a broader range of topics than her other books I am familiar with， as she covers s Based on her latest book， Ann Louise Gittleman shows no signs of slowing down in her early 70s。 She has been busy reading material on health issues that often occur as we age， especially in the “third trimester of our lives。” Her goal with Radical Longevity is to give the reader strategies that answer your body’s “distress calls immediately and effectively” before they progress into disease and illness。 She covers a broader range of topics than her other books I am familiar with， as she covers such areas as our skin， brain， bones， hair， and heart。 She has updated material she has covered before on toxins， parasites， copper， and cell phones。 She looks at “factors” and “rules” that should be addressed if we want be proactive and not just tolerate health changes that occur as we age。Fortunately， Ann Louise has a self-diagnostic quiz early on so you can concentrate on the areas you want to target within the book。 Otherwise， looking at all her suggestions could be overwhelming， if you haven’t worked with a health care professional on supplements， food and health habits or aren’t familiar with her other books and what she says on social media。 She includes some recipes as part of her plan， but unfortunately， there is no nutritional information included for those of us who like to track our foods on an app。I appreciated her “selected references，” but would have liked some others to determine where she got some of her recommendations I haven’t heard about， such as what she says about kombucha。 Don’t be surprised with some of her controversial suggestions that aren’t mainstream and haven’t appeared in major medical journals。 You might not agree with everything she says， but there is some food for thought that may help you。 I would assume her followers won’t be surprised at what she suggests， but to the traditional medical establishment， some of her recommendations， without their references， may be suspect to them。 One chapter especially stood out to me as being really valuable。 Her chapter on optimizing the gut-brain connection is really needed for those facing their later years。 She covers the dangers of suppressing your emotions， and how this behavior is related to grief and pain。 She introduced me to the work of the late neuroscientist Dr。 Candace Pert as part of this discussion。 She also mentions the temporary heart condition known as Takotsubo cardiomyopathy （broken-heart syndrome）。 This is the first book where I have seen it written up for the average person to understand。 She mentions its connection with grief， but I am also familiar with it happening after intense stress that is unconnected with the loss of a loved one。 I also appreciated what she had to say in her brain section about Alzheimer’s disease， anticholinergic substances， and memory loss。 I would have liked a little more research material covered about keeping our eyes healthy， since that is such a huge area of concern for many in their later years。Ann Louise has many suggestions for putting her Radical Longevity plan to work so we can “put the brakes on the aging process。” It may take some of our stimulus checks to integrate changes in our house environment， foods， supplements， and other areas she suggests for our optimal health。 To her credit， she has a lot of material for her readers to ponder and review as to what they feel is appropriate to put into action in the future。 Finally， this book is good for those who want to manage their health and not sit back and wait for something bad to happen to them。 Those who know Ann Louise from her other books and/or are 50+ may welcome non-medication suggestions and her take on increasing longevity。 Thanks to NetGalley and the Hachette Book Group for allowing me to read an advance copy of the book in exchange for an honest， unbiased opinion。 。。。more
