Summary:
"If you adapt these
five
simple
, virtually-free suggestions you will
live
a
longer
and
healthier
life
, guaranteed. Each of the recommendations has been proven by an overwhelming number of tests, trials, and studies to increase health and lifespan. There are no gimmicks, no catches, no ifs, ands, or buts. Number one on the list: Drink coffee. Coffee appears to offer substantial protection against liver cirrhosis, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, Parkinson's disease, cognitive decline and dementia, gallstones, tooth decay, and a host of common cancers. There is no
longer
any question that vitamin D plays an important role in maintaining good health and may even prevent an array of disease conditions. It is the only supplement that Dr. Chopra takes regularly. "As a physician, perhaps the best advice I
can
give to my patients is, 'Move! Move! And keep moving." People who exercise regularly
live
healthier
and
longer
lives. For almost everyone, adding nuts to your regular diet makes good health sense. Meditation, which might be loosely defined as a personal journey into your inner consciousness, is one of the oldest practices of mankind. Scientists are beginning to discover the physiological and neurological benefits of what was considered something that just made people feel better. The
five
simple
actions recommended offer more proven benefits than the latest expensive supplements, fad diets, jazzy exercise programs, and state-of-the-art gym equipment. Dr. Sanjiv Chopra is a professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, and he is the the brother of author Deepak Chopra"--Provided by publisher.
