You: Getting Younger
by Mehmet Oz, M.D.
The Owner's Manual for Extending Your Warranty
Dr. Mehmet Oz lends his decades of medical expertise and worldly knowledge to his fourth bestseller, a landmark book on how to slow the aging process. Oz, a cardiovascular surgeon, offers a brilliant outline of instructions on how to extend one’s longevity by identifying the 14 biological processes which control a person’s rate of aging. While myth has it that one’s longevity is determined by genetic legacy, it is now known that at least 80 percent is determined by lifestyle.
The book is divided into chapters labeled for each process, ranging from sleep and sex to nutrition and exercise. Oz provides information on how to slow or even stop the aging process through nutrition, natural alternatives, and exercise. The authors even incorporate mental health as one of the processes that affects aging, which makes for a thorough read. The information is research based, and the book is delightfully entertaining thanks to the authors' good natured personalities and senses of humor. Oz is supportive and aware of the usefulness of eastern medicine, and he often uses it (if appropriate) with his own patients.
Oz provides the knowledge and concrete instructions on how to slow the aging process in only 14 days, leaving most readers feeling empowered to extend their lives through simple, daily habit changes. The information within the pages of this book is cutting edge, resulting from years of empirical review and experience. Purchasing this book is an exercise in preventive care that could save future health care costs. Oz is not only at the top in modern medicine, he is now one of the number one publishers in preventive health care.
