Live Young, Think Young, Be Young: . . . At Any Age

by Donald M. Vickery MD, Larry Matson, Carol Vickery

While there are plenty of books offering advice about how to age, none takes the crucial step back to challenge how people think about aging—until now. The Aging Syndrome, the core idea in this book, explains the aging process by using three pillars: intrinsic aging, the aging process that no one understands; disuse, both physical and mental; and chronic disease processes, which begin in childhood or sometimes in the womb. Using practical steps and plain language, this volume is the only guide needed for developing a plan for growing older. By presenting a better way to think about aging, it reveals what everyone can do to live a longer life.
