Live Through The Art and Science of Living Longer

Wouldn't it be nice if you could extend your lifespan? And how is that? In his book, "Operating Manual for Longevity," Emmanuel Aboyeji draws on the most recent findings from scientific research to present novel approaches to improving one's diet, methods for achieving optimal levels of physical activity and rest, and instruments for treating one's emotional and mental well-being.
In spite of its many achievements, conventional medicine has not made significant headway against the age-related diseases that account for the deaths of the majority of people, including coronary heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. Too frequently, it intervenes with medicines that are already too late to be of any assistance, extending longevity at the expense of health span, or quality of life. Emmanuel is of the opinion that we need to abandon this outmoded structure in favour of a tailored, preventative approach for longevity-a plan in which we act immediately rather than putting things off.
This is not "biohacking," it is science: a well-founded strategic and tactical approach to prolonging the human lifetime while simultaneously increasing our physical, cognitive, and emotional health. Emmanuel's goal is not so much to instruct you on what you should do as it is to teach you how to think about your long-term health in order to devise the strategy that is most suitable for you as an individual. The following are some of the things that readers will learn from Live through
: * Why the cholesterol test that you get at your annual physical doesn't tell you enough about your true risk of dying from a heart attack.

* That you may already be suffering from an exceedingly prevalent yet underdiagnosed liver illness that may be a precursor to the chronic diseases of aging; this condition could be a factor in your risk of developing these diseases later in life.
* Why physical activity is the most effective "drug" for promoting lifespan, and how to get started training for the "Centenarian Decathlon."

* Why you should forget about diets and instead concentrate on nutritional biochemistry, customizing your eating pattern with the help of technology and data rather than following a certain eating plan.

* Why prioritizing one's physical health and the length of one's life while ignoring one's emotional health could be the worst mistake one could make.
We have significantly more control over how we age and how long we live than we give ourselves credit for; our destinies are not written in stone. If you have the appropriate information, you can reroute your life in a way that will allow you to outlive your genes and ensure that each decade of your life is more fulfilling than the one before it.
