Book excerpt: We're all interested in living a long life, but few of us are willing to sacrifice everything to attain that longevity. After all, what good is living an additional decade at the expense of enjoying the previous ones?Far from being just another off-putting list of strict prohibitions, this book zeroes in on the key factor for optimal longevity: balance. Dr. Paster introduces us to the five spheres of wellness: the physical, mental, kinship/social, spiritual, and material spheres. Within each of these, he pinpoints the most threatening busters -- those lifestyle aspects that will, sooner or later, kill you. And for each buster, he recommends the most advantageous boosters -- habits that will counteract the buster and not only extend your life, but also improve your quality of living.The Longevity Code is the long-awaited comprehensive guide to health care for the next century, striking the perfect balance between a healthful diet and a soul-satisfying meal with friends, between growing old gracefully and living life to the fullest.

This book was released on 2018-10-29 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fountain of youth is closer than you think, but finding it requires discipline. Jairo A Puentes, M.D., teams up with his wife, Clara I. Puentes, to share a blueprint to looking and feeling younger in this guide to revitalizing health. Using an acronym--DRESS-SS, they focus on seven key areas: diet, rest, exercise, stress management, sleep, sexuality, and spirituality. The authors highlight recent research that reveals how to select proper nutrients and supplements for better health, as well as how to fix hormonal imbalances that occur as we age. Using vitamins, supplements, and herbs as part of complementary medicine, you'll be able to reverse the aging process and live a longer and happier life. The book also explores the effect of free radicals on DNA as a leading cause in the development of cancer as well as how doctors and health practitioners can help patients improve their quality of life. In a genre crowded with often contradictory and confusing advice, Living Longer and Reversing Aging is a comprehensive guide to health and longevity.

Download or read book Explaining Divergent Levels of Longevity in High-Income Countries written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-06-27 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last 25 years, life expectancy at age 50 in the United States has been rising, but at a slower pace than in many other high-income countries, such as Japan and Australia. This difference is particularly notable given that the United States spends more on health care than any other nation. Concerned about this divergence, the National Institute on Aging asked the National Research Council to examine evidence on its possible causes. According to Explaining Divergent Levels of Longevity in High-Income Countries, the nation's history of heavy smoking is a major reason why lifespans in the United States fall short of those in many other high-income nations. Evidence suggests that current obesity levels play a substantial part as well. The book reports that lack of universal access to health care in the U.S. also has increased mortality and reduced life expectancy, though this is a less significant factor for those over age 65 because of Medicare access. For the main causes of death at older ages -- cancer and cardiovascular disease -- available indicators do not suggest that the U.S. health care system is failing to prevent deaths that would be averted elsewhere. In fact, cancer detection and survival appear to be better in the U.S. than in most other high-income nations, and survival rates following a heart attack also are favorable. Explaining Divergent Levels of Longevity in High-Income Countries identifies many gaps in research. For instance, while lung cancer deaths are a reliable marker of the damage from smoking, no clear-cut marker exists for obesity, physical inactivity, social integration, or other risks considered in this book. Moreover, evaluation of these risk factors is based on observational studies, which -- unlike randomized controlled trials -- are subject to many biases.
