One of my goals for 2023 is to read 30 minutes of non-fiction most mornings, and my first contender for this task was Alternative Ageing: The Natural Way to Hold Back the Years. With the usual reminders to hydrate, this book has quite a few what I would consider more fringe recommendations. Overall, it was interesting, and since I lean toward the more 'vitamins and fish oil' end of the health and beauty spectrum, it was an educational read.
A little predictable and who has enough time or money for all that anyway. Do feel good that I'm att least doing half the things she mentioned. The drinking urine is a surprise.
This book covers a variety of aspects and looks at natural ways to fight the ravages of age. It looks at the causes of ageing, hormones, diets, supplements, body, skin, fitness and lifestyle. The emphasis is on natural supplements which is only to be expected, given the title.
The book is well-written and easy to understand. I did lose faith in the author's credibility a little when she made a statement regarding sea vegetables being the only plant source of some elements such as calcium, magnesium and potassium (this is quoting author Gillian McKeith) when she also has sections elsewhere in the book that focus on other plants that contain these minerals.
