Everyone wants to feel fitter, sexier, more energetic, more productive, and younger. Are there ways to ease the negative effects of aging and prevent diabetes, heart disease, cancer, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer's disease from ever starting? What if we could translate all the exotic science and research breakthroughs of today into a practical plan that could help us win the war on aging? This is a sensible, comprehensive, and scientifically based anti-aging guide packed with essential information. Orthopedic surgeon Dr. Rocco Monto explains why we age so poorly now and how we can change this. Focusing on the four pillars of science, diet, exercise, and medicine, Dr. Monto's findings suggest that simple choices such as preventing obesity and having regular exercise provide profound results. Watch your protein intake - not too much and not too little. Everybody needs vitamin D supplements. Debunking long-held diet and fitness myths while highlighting safe, effective therapies, Dr. Monto includes the diet, supplements, exercise, mental training, and new medications to help us all live longer, happier, healthier, and more productive lives. Much more than a compilation of longevity research, The Fountain is an essential toolkit that will redesign lifestyles and forever transform the way we look at aging.
