How Not to Age — Presentation
Channel: NutritionFacts.org
Date: 2023-11-22

In this lecture (recorded live), Dr. Greger offers a sneak peek into his latest book, How Not to Age.

Inspired by the dietary and lifestyle patterns of centenarians and residents of “blue zone” regions where people live the longest, Dr. Greger presents simple, accessible, and evidence-based methods to preserve the body functions that keep you feeling youthful, both physically and mentally.

I’m thrilled to release this presentation based on How Not to Age, my new book coming out in December after three long years in the making. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the book trailer: https://nutritionfacts.org/video/book-trailer-for-how-not-to-age/.

Preorders are available now. https://nutritionfacts.org/book/how-not-to-age/

If you plan to buy How Not to Age, please consider preordering. All preorders count towards first week sales, which factor into The New York Times Best Sellers list calculations. So, the more preorders How Not to Age receives, the more likely it will make the list, which could help expose millions to the message of healthy eating. In fact, the book lands on December 5–perfect timing for holiday gifts for everyone in your life you want to live long healthy lives. So, consider getting some of your holiday shopping done early by preordering a whole stack! 

As always, all proceeds I receive from all of my books are donated to charity.
