Summary

Bestselling author Dr。 Mark Hyman presents the definitive guide to reversing disease, easing pain, and living younger longer。

Aging has long been considered a normal process。 We think disease, frailty, and gradual decline are inevitable parts of life。 But they don’t have to be。 Science today sees aging as a treatable disease。 By addressing its root causes we can not only increase our health span and live longer but prevent and reverse the maladies of aging—including heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and dementia。

In Young Forever, Dr。 Mark Hyman challenges us to reimagine our biology, health, and the process of aging。 To uncover the secrets to longevity, he explores the biological hallmarks of aging, their causes, and their consequences—then shows us how to overcome them with simple dietary, lifestyle, and emerging longevity strategies。 You’ll learn how to turn on your body’s key longevity switches; reduce inflammation and support the health of your immune system; exercise, sleep, and de-stress for healthy aging; and eat your way to a long life, featuring Dr。 Hyman’s Pegan Diet。 You’ll also get exclusive insight on which supplements are right for you, where the research on aging is headed, and so much more。

With dozens of science-based strategies and tips, Young Forever is a revolutionary, practical guide to creating and sustaining health—for life。

More reviews (and no fluff) on the blog http://surrealtalvi。wordpress。com/Those who have read his other books knows that he expounds a diet of meats and vegetables while reducing sugar and starches (e。g。, breads)。 You'll find that component in here but there really isn't a straightforward program to follow。 He'll suggest everything from anal oxygen injections to fasting; some suggestions have scientific research to back them but I feel like a lot more were either subjective or conjectures, More reviews (and no fluff) on the blog http://surrealtalvi。wordpress。com/Those who have read his other books knows that he expounds a diet of meats and vegetables while reducing sugar and starches (e。g。, breads)。 You'll find that component in here but there really isn't a straightforward program to follow。 He'll suggest everything from anal oxygen injections to fasting; some suggestions have scientific research to back them but I feel like a lot more were either subjective or conjectures, without true evidence supporting them。 Readers would likely end up wasting a lot of time and money without really expanding their years。Admittedly, I had a hard time with two aspects of the book。 He notes the blue zones lived longer lives by eating animal products but that seems to contradict nearly every scientific research out there that says otherwise (even when animal products are at a much lower percentage to plants in meals)。 I don't think the author of the blue zones would agree with that assertion either。 Hyman also states several times that sugar and starches are the cause of diseases like diabetes - but the research I've seen puts the cause as fats, especially trans and saturated (e。g。, to give lab rats diabetes, you feed them a lot of animal products with saturated fat, not sugar or starches)。 So it became harder to take this book seriously when it seemed there were a lot of unfounded 'new agey' type of recommendations that didn't seem grounded in research。Also problematic is that the author sells his own products。 In that regard, this 'young forever'(TM) program relies on you buying the supplements/products in his store。 I do not doubt that he believes in the efficacy of what he sells but when an author's income relies on their special products, it feels like there is too much of a conflict of interest should newly emerging research prove foundations incorrect (the author would want to stick to selling his products and not want to admit they aren't useful (or he'd lose money))。 In a way, this book feels like a bit of fear mongering in order to create a ready clientele for his products。I am glad that he recommends eating more fiber/plants since that seems to be the best way to live longer these days。 But there are a LOT of odd/strange recommendations: you'll have to get a barrage of random and narrowly targeted tests, let's not even mention the injections (apparently, there are many ways to get oxygen into your body beyond just breathing)。 I don't feel there really is a 'program' for living longer here and that the data/research just doesn't support any clear plan an individual can take other than the usual of not smoking and eating better, move more and have a good home life。 In that regard, this book may be far too soon to really be a sound way to help add years to your life。 Reviewed from an advance reader copy provided by the publisher。 。。。more

Excellent book with a life changing The Forever Young Program outlined。 Questionnaires designed to suggest special lab tests are needed。
