Obesity, spots, ageing and wrinkles are perceived as purely aesthetic problems. In reality however, they are symptoms of a bigger problem called oxidative damage. Every day free radicals are produced in our body, and they are responsible for causing extensive damage to our cells. The inevitable outcome, in the long term, is a quickening of the ageing process, and numerous diseases! Many people try to use antioxidants to stop them, but if used improperly they can be useless and sometimes even harmful. An increasing number of people are using plastic surgery to try to hide this problem, but as soon as the expensive, painful, and dangerous work is finished, the free radicals begin again to damage what has been repaired. In a few years, they will find themselves back at the starting point. This book aims to give the reader simple tools for understanding the free radical problem, as well as a large number of easy-to-follow strategies to mitigate this attack. By working on our diet and lifestyle, and learning how to use antioxidants, we can make a big difference to the way radicals will affect our lives. This is an indispensable manual if you want to learn how to preserve the most important gift you possess - your health!

Bestselling author Dan Buettner reveals how to transform your health using smart nutrition, lifestyle, and fitness habits gleaned from longevity research on the diets, eating habits, and lifestyle practices of the communities he's identified as "Blue Zones"—those places with the world's longest-lived, and thus healthiest, people, including locations such as Okinawa, Japan; Sardinia, Italy; Costa Rica's Nicoya Peninsula; Ikaria, Greece; and Loma Linda, California. With the audacious belief that the lifestyles of the world's Blue Zones could be adapted and replicated in towns across North America, Buettner launched the largest preventive health care project in the United States, The Blue Zones City Makeovers, which has impacted the health of millions of Americans since 2009. In The Blue Zones Solution, readers can be inspired by the specific stories of the people, foods, and routines of our healthy elders; understand the role community, family, and naturally healthy habits can play in improving our diet and health; and learn the exact foods—including the 50 superfoods of longevity and dozens of recipes adapted for Western tastes and markets—that offer delicious ways to eat your way to optimum health. Throughout the book are lifestyle recommendations, checklists, and stories to help you create your own personal Blue Zones solution. Readers will learn and apply the 80/20 rule, the plant slant diet, social aspects of eating that lead to weight loss and great health naturally, cultivating your "tribe" of friends and family, and your greater purpose as part of your daily routine. Filled with moving personal stories, delicious recipes, checklists, and useful tips that will transform any home into a miniature blue zone, The Blue Zones Solution is the ultimate blueprint for a healthy, happy life.

From a renowned Johns Hopkins- and Stanford-educated cardiologist at Intermountain Medical Center—a hospital system that President Obama has praised as an "island of excellence"—comes the story of his time living in Longevity Village in China, and the seven lessons he learned there that lead to a happy, healthy, long life At forty-four, acclaimed cardiologist John Day was overweight and suffered from insomnia, degenerative joint disease, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. On six medications and suffering constant aches, he needed to make a change. While lecturing in China, he’d heard about a remote mountainous region known as Longevity Village, a wellness Shangri-La free of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, dementia, depression, and insomnia, and where living past one hundred—in good health—is not uncommon. In the hope of understanding this incredible phenomenon, Day, a Mandarin speaker, decided to spend some time living in Longevity Village. He learned everything he could about this place and its people, and met its centenarians. His research revealed seven principles that work in tandem to create health, happiness, and longevity—rules he applied to his own life. Six months later, he’d lost thirty pounds, dropped one hundred points off his cholesterol and twenty-five points off his blood pressure, and was even cured of his acid reflux and insomnia. In 2014 he began a series of four-month support groups comprised of patients who worked together to apply the lessons of Longevity Village to their lives. Ninety-two percent of the participants were able to adhere to their plans and stay on pace to reach their health goals. Now Dr. Day shares his story and proven program to help you feel sharper, more motivated, productive, and pain-free. The Longevity Plan is not only a fascinating travelogue but also a practical, accessible, and groundbreaking guide to a better life.

But then at that time longevity was the rule and not the exception. This process of growing old chronologically is a normal process of life. It occurs in every living thing present in nature. External factors also age nonliving things with the passage of time. A person is called old on the basis of his chronological age. That is why in the 21st century, anyone who has passed the age of three score and 10 will be considered to be old. However, in olden times, people lived for anywhere between 200 to 300 years, and still managed to look youthful and had as much energy as young adults. The slowing down of the aging process is due to many factors, most of which are not present in the 21st century scenario. This includes clean-air, healthy pollution free atmosphere, a good natural diet, lots of exercise, and also a strong disease-free gene line. With the passing of time, the natural good health and comparatively long age enjoyed by man 5000 years ago, has deteriorated a lot. The functional state of a living organism which is also known as the biological age is going to have a great influence on the aging of the person. This is going to show up mentally and physically in signs. Bring off the hair on the scalp is one such feature. Another feature is the presence of wrinkles and folds on the face, forehead, neck and forearms.
