Editorial Reviews: Though much has been written in recent years on lifestyle changes that might extend people's life, little of the material has been fully documented and some has been without scientific foundation. This work provides an exhaustively documented look at current research into promising methods of extending life. Among the topics covered are diet and nutrition, vitamins and other supplements, exercise, lifestyle changes, and methods for avoiding such specific ailments as heart disease, cancer and stroke. The quality of the extended life is also fully considered, for instance preventing osteoporosis, preserving vision, minimizing aging of the skin and maintaining overall vitality.
