Young Forever: The Secrets to Living Your Longest, Healthiest Life
THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Dr. Mark Hyman presents the definitive guide to reversing disease, easing pain, and living younger longer that “will revolutionize how we approach aging” (Jay Shetty, author of 8 Rules of Love). 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.

As I've grown older I've enjoyed reading research on aging and what I can do to slow that down. Young Forever was very informational and I will most likely refer to it again in the future.
Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to read and review. All opinions are my own.
