Summary

Is it possible to grow older without getting sicker? Can you look and feel fifty through your eighties and nineties? Barzilai's life's 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 Alzheimer's. His studies include SuperAgers: individuals who maintain active lives well into their nineties and even beyond-- and reached that ripe old age never having experienced cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, or cognitive decline. Here 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
