Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview: #1 You can be younger than you are today, simply by changing your diet and making some simple lifestyle modifications. The results of a trial conducted by the authors of Younger You were astonishing: participants lowered their biological age by 3. 23 years.

#2 Bio age is based on the premise that our bodies are constantly subject to damage and degradation from internal and external sources. It is measured by how much damage has accumulated in your particular body, and it shows how old your tissues, systems, and even your genetic material are.

#3 The results my patients have experienced in search of reducing their bio age are extraordinary. They have seen their chronic, difficult-to-manage symptoms lessen, stabilize, or even go away completely.

#4 The Younger You program will help you address both your age-related symptoms and your specific condition. It’s a twofer, as turning back the clock will help clean up the symptoms that go along with aging.

#1

You can be younger than you are today, simply by changing your diet and making some simple lifestyle modifications. The results of a trial conducted by the authors of Younger You were astonishing: participants lowered their biological age by 3. 23 years.

#2

Bio age is based on the premise that our bodies are constantly subject to damage and degradation from internal and external sources. It is measured by how much damage has accumulated in your particular body, and it shows how old your tissues, systems, and even your genetic material are.

#3

The results my patients have experienced in search of reducing their bio age are extraordinary. They have seen their chronic, difficult-to-manage symptoms lessen, stabilize, or even go away completely.

#4

The Younger You program will help you address both your age-related symptoms and your specific condition. It’s a twofer, as turning back the clock will help clean up the symptoms that go along with aging.

#5

The third option is to aim to support your epigenetics via diet and lifestyle, and postpone chronic illness. By following it, you’ll be aiming to influence your epigenome and genetic expression.

#6

The biohacking trend, where health nuts are trying all sorts of aggressive health interventions in an effort to live longer and healthier, is surging. However, many of these methods have produced favorable health effects, and we don’t know the long-term consequences of these extreme strategies.

#7

In Part 1, you’ll learn about how your epigenome directs your genes to keep you alive and healthy, or contributes to aging and its frequent companion, illness. You’ll also learn about DNA methylation, a mechanism of epigenetic expression.

#8

The Everyday version of the plan is designed to help you keep the gains you’ll receive from the Intensive and promote long-term health. It outlines the simple changes you can make to support your epigenome and add years to your life, like trading your extra cup of coffee or black tea for green tea, swapping your roasted potatoes for roasted beets, and snacking on blueberries.

#9

The Younger You program is not just a new diet; it is a science-backed guide to shaving years off your bio age by promoting a healthy epigenome. It is not just for health nuts or biohackers, but for anyone who wants to look and feel their best.

#10

Your bio age is the single biggest risk factor for all the major diseases. It’s not just your looks that have changed, but your memory, energy, and ability to recover from illness.

#11

The health care industry has benefited the most from the disease-centered approach to aging. As bio age increases, so does the risk of disease, and the industry responds by focusing on treating those diseases.
