Longevity - The Science and Arts of Longevity Written by Peter Attia... Would you like to live longer? And better? In this practical book, Dr. Peter Attia draws on the latest science to offer innovative nutritional interventions, techniques to improve exercise and sleep, and tools for dealing with emotional and mental health. Despite medicine's successes, it has failed to make significant progress in combating the diseases of aging that kill most people: cardiovascular disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. Often, medical intervention is too late, and it is able to prolong life at the expense of Quality of life. Dr. Attia believes we must replace this outdated framework with an active personal strategy for longevity, where we take action now, rather than waiting. He's not talking about genetic modification but science, a solid strategic and tactical approach to extending lifespan and improving our physical, mental and emotional health. Dr. Attia's goal is to inform you of what to do and help you think correctly about your long-term health.
