Ageless Aging

A Woman’s Guide to Increasing Healthspan, Brainspan, and Lifespan

We are in the midst of a longevity revolution. And that’s particularly true for women:

-Women can expect to live five years longer than men.

-A 50-year-old woman can expect to live another 35 years, on average.

-Women comprise 80% of centenarians, now the fastest growing segment of the world’s population.

But despite these incredible statistics showing how women are living longer, women are not living well. Women typically spend the last 14 years of their lives in a cascade of poor health. And while current research suggests that some 70 to 90% of your health and longevity is under your control, rather than at the mercy of the genes you were born with, the reality is that most women are not taking advantage of the measures that could lead to a longer and better life.

Ageless Aging presents a pioneering new way for women to age—an ascent that includes feeling youthful and vital while gaining wisdom, resilience, and experience. It provides a holistic plan that helps women take advantage of the scientific, medical, psychological, and spiritual tools available to them as they grow older.

Women are at the forefront of the longevity revolution, and they need a trusted resource to help them thrive in old age. With her finger on the pulse of all the research, science, and information about longevity, aging, and the specific issues women face, Maddy Dychtwald is the perfect guide. She shows you how to take control of what you can control to create your best future self.

Current info (2024) narrated to perfection

This should be a must listen to! I thought I knew much more than I did about current research but I learned new information about each area covered. My favorite: there are clear action steps to take whether you’re already accomplished in an area or not. There are doable steps to pick from to get you on your way. I started adding actions to my life as I went through the book. Rebecca Stern narrates as if she wrote this herself. She has an easy to listen to, authoritative style that makes this book compelling to listen to.

NOTE: I am dyslexic so listening to the audiobook is the only way I would have gotten through it. However, there are points I want to highlight and refer back to, so I may buy a hard copy as well.
