More than 100 delicious, nutritionally balanced recipes to help you
live your longest, healthiest life.
From the author of the Sunday Times bestsellers How Not To Die and How
Not to Diet, comes The How Not To Age Cookbook – a beautifully
illustrated cookbook of tasty recipes based on the groundbreaking
nutritional science of How Not to Age.
In How Not To Age, Dr Michael Greger revealed that a healthy diet is
one of the most promising strategies for combating the effects of
aging. His Anti-Aging Eight streamlined evidence-based research into
simple, accessible steps for ensuring physical and mental longevity.
Filled with more than 100 recipes to help you live well for longer, The
How Not To Age Cookbook brings together decades of scientific research.
These simple, nutrition-packed dishes make use of ingredients that have
been proven to promote a healthy lifespan and inspiration from the
places around the world where people traditionally live the longest.
Grounded in the latest nutrition science, The How Not to Age Cookbook
is packed full of delicious meals, snacks and drinks that will keep the
body both nourished and youthful.
Wouldn't you like to live longer? And better? In this operating manual
for longevity, Dr. Peter Attia draws on the latest science to deliver
innovative nutritional interventions, techniques for optimizing
exercise and sleep, and tools for addressing emotional and mental
health.
For all its successes, mainstream medicine has failed to make much
progress against the diseases of aging that kill most people: heart
disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. Too often,
it intervenes with treatments too late to help, prolonging lifespan at
the expense of healthspan, or quality of life. Dr. Attia believes we
must replace this outdated framework with a personalized, proactive
strategy for longevity, one where we take action now, rather than
waiting.
This is not "biohacking," it's science: a well-founded strategic and
tactical approach to extending lifespan while also improving our
physical, cognitive, and emotional health. Dr. Attia's aim is less to
tell you what to do and more to help you learn how to think about
long-term health, in order to create the best plan for you as an
individual. In Outlive, readers will discover:
* Why the cholesterol test at your annual physical doesn't tell you
enough about your actual risk of dying from a heart attack.
* That you may already suffer from an extremely common yet
underdiagnosed liver condition that could be a precursor to the chronic
diseases of aging.
* Why exercise is the most potent pro-longevity "drug"—and how to begin
training for the "Centenarian Decathlon."
* Why you should forget about diets, and focus instead on nutritional
biochemistry, using technology and data to personalize your eating
pattern.
* Why striving for physical health and longevity, but ignoring
emotional health, could be the ultimate curse of all.
Aging and longevity are far more malleable than we think; our fate is
not set in stone. With the right roadmap, you can plot a different path
for your life, one that lets you outlive your genes to make each decade
better than the one before.
Nutrition: A Practical Approach should be suitable material for
those studying a nutrition module as part of a NVQ 3 in Beauty
Therapy, as well as being of interest to health practitioners and
holistic therapists.
Are you always trying the latest diets only to find they don't
work? The solution may be as easy as eating your colours. Based on
the idea that everyone fits into one of three body types - yellow,
red or green - Eat Your Colours is a health and nutrition guide
that should help you find your optimum weight, as well as
increasing your energy and longevity.
