True Age

Cutting-Edge Research to Help Turn Back the Clock

By: Morgan Levine PhD

Narrated by: Sarah Beth Pfeifer

Cutting-edge research shows how to determine and decrease your true biological age.

What if there was a way to measure our biological age? And what if there were strategies to slow down—or even reverse—the aging process? The answers to these questions lie at the heart of the groundbreaking work Dr. Morgan Levine is doing in her lab at Yale.

True Age introduces readers to the latest developments in the science of aging and longevity. It provides an in-depth understanding of biological age and the methods now available to estimate our own. It helps us target an individualized plan to eat, exercise, and sleep, as well as pointing to other lifestyle practices like intermittent fasting and caloric restriction that have been shown to slow or reverse the aging process.

The goal is to guide every reader toward a personal regimen to keep them as youthful as possible—both inside and out—with low risk, data-driven biohacking. The book gives readers and their doctors unprecedented ways to identify their personalized aging process and increase not only their lifespan but also then their healthspan.

A Wealth of Information

A great tool for understanding one's Biological Age. I can now make sense of the data from my past and present bloodwork report. It gives me the power to choose the direction of its future trends.

Great book but poor audio quality

This was a great book with a lot of excellent content. The narrator performed well and was a joy to listen to. The only issue was the audio quality. The gain might have been set too high. There was distortion during the louder and higher frequency parts of the narrator's speech. Other than that this was a good book to listen to.

"True Age" is an absolute must-read.

Morgan Levine's "True Age: Cutting-Edge Research to Help Turn Back the Clock" is a breathtaking exploration of the science of aging and how we can take control of our health span. With a deft hand, Levine seamlessly weaves complex scientific concepts into a beautifully accessible narrative, bringing readers along on an inspiring journey of discovery.

Levine's expertise in longevity research shines through every page of this remarkable work, as she reveals the latest cutting-edge research in the field. But what truly sets this book apart is Levine's focus on practical recommendations that can be implemented by anyone, regardless of their background or experience. By offering actionable steps to take today to maximize our health span, Levine has written a book that truly has the power to change lives.

It's rare to find a book that combines the rigor of top-notch scientific research with the warmth and accessibility of a good friend's advice. But that's precisely what Levine has achieved in "True Age." With this book, readers can feel confident that they're getting the latest, most accurate information about how to take control of their own health and longevity. For anyone interested in living their best life, "True Age" is an absolute must-read.

A mix of old and new science.

I would recommend this book to anyone who is new to the health and longevity field. There are a variety of topics covered. A few are pretty cutting edge, but many are old and even some have been largely disproven or updated.

Narration is AWFUL

I just can't listen any more. I had to buy the book. I listen in my car (which is every day) and every time I forget how awful the narrator is, and get re annoyed. She sounds like a perky sorority girl hosting a Tupperware party. It is a disgrace to the author, a noted Yale medical researcher. The content is from serious scientific research, and should not sound silly or condescending. The narrator should only do children's books. I am an MD specializing in longevity and soak up every bit of research coming out of medical labs.
I don't think the narration needs to be dry or boring, but the reader should sound like she has a bit of intelligence. This narrator also mispronounces several medical terms. How hard would it be for her to look them up, if they are words she is unfamiliar with. As to the book, I will write a review on Amazon, because I really LOVE the book, and will give it five stars there.
