Overview

There are exciting new developments in the fields of anti-aging, nutrition, and fitness for living longer and happier. They are easy to apply and most will give you results right away. Unfortunately they are not well know or easy to find. This book gathers them all together and presents them in simple terms so you can start today living longer and better.

The older body – male and female – has very different needs from its younger version. In most cases only small adjustment are needed to live a lot longer and with a greater quality of life, even if you currently have a medical problem. I speak from experience: I am 60 years of age with a couple medical challenges, but armed with these simple – research-based – tips I fully intend to live happily to 100 and beyond!

This book is divided into 6 Chapters: Physical, Nutritional, Mental, Spiritual, and 2 chapters where I teach you the best exercise for the older body using HD streaming video, text, and photos.

This is a quick reference rather than an in-depth analysis so that you can start making changes right away. For further study of any of these fascinating subjects, I’ve included links that will take you to the sources.

Chapter 1 is full of ways to a healthier body from a simple method to improve your vision, to an easy adjustment to your current exercise program to avoid wear and tear on your joints. If you don’t exercise I have an easy and highly effective way to get started. If you have an exercise routine I have rare tips to make it even more effective.

Chapter 2 is packed with nutritional suggestions from the latest anti-aging research. The highlight for me is amazing results from research on ‘intermittent fasting.’ Here you’ll also learn how to increase energy, improve your sex life, reduce pain and inflammation, and fight many diseases.

Chapter 3 looks at your mind. Research points to new and fun ways to dramatically lower your risk of Alzheimer’s and dementia. I’m talking about not just stopping our mental decline, but actually - and amazingly – increasing brain cell growth!

Chapter 4 has fascinating tips for the care of your spirit no matter what your religious persuasion!

In Chapter 5, I teach you the very best exercise method for the older body guaranteed to give you all that your body needs without the wear and tear so prominent in most exercise programs. It’s Pilates mat exercise. It requires no equipment or a gym. I’ve been teaching it for over 35 years, and here are safe and easy lessons for any age and fitness level. If you’re not familiar with Pilates, Chapter 6 tells you all about it.

Everything in this book is guaranteed to give you results. All you have to do is take action. And here’s my favorite feature of this book. I’m available to you 24/7 for any questions or concerns, because I’m 60 and we’re in this boat together! Contact me anytime – I enjoy connecting and problem solving.

Suddenly I find myself considering the sober fact that I no longer have all the time in the world. What am I going to do with the rest of it? How can I enjoy it more? How can I be around longer for those I love and those who love me? How can I keep from becoming a burden of care for my wife and friends and children? This book answers all of these important questions.

None of these solutions require much effort, and you don’t need to do everything in this book to get fantastic results. Whatever you do is a great step in the direction of a longer and better life.

The great American author John Irving once observed that our lives often end unexpectedly and unpleasantly. I wrote this book to change all that! I can’t guarantee that you’ll live like my neighbor Jack who is 100 this month and walks every day and drinks scotch and can rattle off statistics about every current Red Sox player! What I know for certain is that all of us now have a better chance than ever before of a longer and better quality of life by taking these simple steps.
