Eat Your Ice Cream

Six Simple Rules for a Long and Healthy Life

De: Ezekiel J. Emanuel MD

Narrado por: Ezekiel J. Emanuel

Everyone wants to live a full and healthy life―and every day brings a tidal wave of attention-grabbing misinformation, faddish ideas from "wellness" influencers, and bizarre advice from news outlets over-extrapolating the results of tiny, outlier studies. The "Wellness Industrial Complex" prescribes conflicting and complicated regimens while promising us more time to enjoy in the future―though it sure is demanding a lot of time right now. But what actually matters most to our health and longevity? What has the most robust, actionable evidence? What's the junk you can skip?

In Eat Your Ice Cream, renowned physician Ezekiel J. Emanuel argues that life is not a competition to live the longest and that "wellness" shouldn't be difficult; it should be an invisible part of one's lifestyle that yields maximum health benefits with the least work. Dr. Emanuel cuts through the noise with wit and good humor, giving listeners just what they need: simple, high-impact, evidence-based guidelines on such issues as alcohol consumption, food and nutrition, exercise, sleep, mental acuity, and social engagement. Resisting the tide of the latest trends to extend life at all costs, Eat Your Ice Cream reveals that many of the tools for a long, healthy and meaningful life are already within reach.

Best medical advice I’ve heard in years!

I work in healthcare and have a lot of patients that spend their whole life being overzealous about health and causing negative health consequences chasing the next fad or Instagram craze. It’s good to hear a reasonable voice with good objective research backed information and practical application. I recommended this to several family members and look forward to sitting down for ice cream!

Don’t wait until you’re “old” to focus on longevity!

Sincere, heartfelt delivery. Amazing information that everyone should hear and not wait until they are old to start to incorporate. Thanks for your research and passion.

A few new nuggets of wisdom

Overall I enjoyed the book. I felt it was really geared to readers beginning their health journey but it was a good refresher for those who have already started their journey. Key point - work on your social engagements.
