The Longevity Solution

Rediscovering Centuries-Old Secrets to a Healthy, Long Life

By: Dr. James DiNicolantonio, Dr. Jason Fung

Narrated by: Jesse Inocalla

Getting older doesn’t have to mean experiencing more pain and illness, becoming less mobile, or developing disease. Renowned cardiovascular research scientist and doctor of pharmacy Dr. James DiNicolantonio partners with leading physician and bestselling author Dr. Jason Fung to deliver The Longevity Solution, a groundbreaking new book that unlocks the secrets of healthy aging. Using evidence drawn from their years of medical research and clinical practice, Dr. DiNicolantonio and Dr. Fung lay out five simple, easy-to-follow steps you can take now for a longer, fuller, healthier life.

The Longevity Solution explains how to incorporate time-honored wellness traditions while doing away with fads, unnecessary supplements, and unsubstantiated wellness practices. It investigates the dietary habits and other practices of the healthiest, longest-lived humans on the planet, who live in regions known as Blue Zones, as a model for what and how we should eat. It teaches the benefits of intermittent fasting and calorie restriction, which have been shown to slow the aging process, while consuming proper ratios of protein and healthy fats. It also looks at how red wine, tea, and coffee play key roles in optimizing health and why salt is an ally, not an enemy, in the longevity equation.

In this comprehensive guide, Dr. DiNicolantonio and Dr. Fung unveil cutting-edge science in an approachable format that is easy-to-understand and can be put into practice immediately. Simple dietary changes can help you break the cycle of carbohydrate dependence, kick your metabolism into high gear, and jump-start your longevity genes. The Longevity Solution puts healthy aging back in your control!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Useful information

I found this an interesting read and was able to add to my increasing knowledge in this area. I value the way it was set out and the information provided.

Very interesting new information

The part about red wine and plant food was new for me. It is also very good that the book talks about balanced food and moderate consumption. Precise advise what to eat and what not. I like and make beer, but there are no health benefits in beer, only in wine. So I will try now to merge both of them and ferment some red grapes in the beer. I hope I can bring it to a good tasting healthy liquid!

Reader does not know medical terminology

Pronunciation is really terrible on many occasions. Hard to believe this was not edited. Any proof reading?

great read, would recommend

I would recommend to anyone looking to improve their health. pulled some useful info I will implement.

Great source

Yes, as other reviewers mentioned, the narrator mispronounces some words. However, it didn’t stop me from gathering valuable information. The book is dense with concepts, and cites scientific research. I watched an interview with Dr.Fung, and got inspired to see what he writes about. A lot of ideas here make sense, as opposed to some wild extremes out there. Also, where others aired grievances about advertisements, I appreciate being pointed to the brands and places to shop for products, instead of spending hours looking for them myself. So, yes, I find it useful, and will be listening to it several times, to solidify my understanding.

Would be great if this information was widespread.

Useful info for most people . Most people will get info out of this book that is unfortunately lacking in society.

good information but must read ending

lots of information and theories to promote healthy aging. stay social, don't snack, no processed foods, fast weekly and keep your body moving all day everyday.

Very Informative, good book

The contents is well researched, very informative, topics are well explained. its a good book.

Amazing book on longevity

Great knowledge, lots of studies to back up what they say and good recommendations. If you are interested in longevity and health, then I think you should get this book.

It’s like listening to Google research

The fasting section based on Dr Fung’s book is the only useful portion. The rest reads like a collection of articles that you could find online. I would suggest buying Dr Fung’s book on fasting and passing on this one.
