Samenvatting
How do some people avoid the slowing down, deteriorating, and weakening that plagues many of their peers decades earlier? Are they just lucky? Or do they know something the rest of us dont? Is it possible to grow older without getting sicker? What if you could look and feel fifty through your eighties and nineties?
Founder of the Institute for Aging Research at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and one of the leading pioneers of longevity research, Dr. Nir Barzilais lifes work is tackling the challenges of aging to delay and prevent the onset of all age-related diseases including the big four: diabetes, cancer, heart disease, and Alzheimers.
One of Dr. Barzilais most fascinating studies features volunteers that include 750 SuperAgersindividuals who maintain active lives well into their nineties and even beyondand, more importantly, who reached that ripe old age never having experienced cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, or cognitive decline.
In Age Later, Dr. Barzilai reveals the secrets his team has unlocked about SuperAgers and the scientific discoveries that show we can mimic some of their natural resistance to the aging process. This eye-opening and inspirational audiobook will help you think of aging not as a certainty, but as a phenomenonlike many other diseases and misfortunesthat can be targeted, improved, and even cured.
