Ernæringseksperten Michael Greger gennemgår de mest almindelige dødbringende sygdomme og giver detaljeret ny viden om, hvad der kan forhindre, at man udvikler dem. Ingen bog kan fuldstændig fjerne for tidlig død på grund af almindelige sygdomme, som kan forhindres. Men læseren, der anvender informationen i denne bog, kan skabe en meningsfuld forandring i sit liv både hvad kvaliteten og levetiden angår. Trods titlen loves der ikke udødelighed, men et tilbud om et sundt liv langt udover den forventede afslutning.

Kniha Jak se dožít 100 let – Tajemství lidí, kteří nejsou nikdy nemocní vypráví příběhy pětadvaceti lidí, z nichž každý má vlastní tajemství skvělého zdraví – tajemství, které dává smysl a je vědecky podloženo. Patří k nim tajemství zdravé stravy – proč jíst česnek a brát vitamín C, jíst víc probiotik, stát se veganem nebo pít kvasnicový nápoj. Jiná tajemství se týkají cvičení – prospěšnost strečinku nebo zvedání činek. Tajemství spojená s životním prostředím – život v Modré zóně, pochopení významu mikrobů. Citová tajemství – udržování kontaktu s přáteli a pěstování spirituality. Tajemství tělesné zdatnosti – studená sprcha po ránu, krátké zdřímnutí přes den. A po generace předávaná moudrost: ano, slepičí polévka opravdu pomáhá. Díky osobním příběhům má kniha lidský rozměr a výzkum potvrzuje její důvěryhodnost. Jednotlivé návody vám ukážou, jak můžete sami zlepšit své zdraví a stát se dalším z lidí, kteří nejsou nikdy nemocní. Peroxid vodíku je světlemodrá kapalina, která se používá k výrobě raketového paliva, bělení papíru, odstraňování ušního mazu a čištění kuchyňské linky. Je to také tajemství, kterému vděčí šedesátiletý podnikatel Bill Thompson za své skvělé zdraví – už dvacet let nebyl nachlazený a má EKG jako dvacetiletý muž. Každé ráno si Bill ponoří hlavu do roztoku peroxidu vodíku a teplé vody a po této proceduře se cítí plný sil jako za mlada. Dvě generace zpátky byla jóga tajemnou naukou. Dnes ji praktikují miliony lidí jako součást své životosprávy. Patří k nim i Felice Rhiannonová, která cvičí jógu už dlouhá léta a přisuzuje jí hlavní zásluhu na tom, že žije životem bez stresu a nemocí. Výzkumy ukazují, že má pravdu: jóga opravdu pomáhá posilovat imunitní systém, snižuje krevní tlak, léčí deprese a úzkost a má mnoho dalších blahodárných účinků. Zahradníci znají pH jako poměr kyselosti a zásaditosti v půdě. Bývalý rocker a hlasový terapeut věří, že za svou dobrou kondici vděčí vyváženosti pH. Když ze své stravy vyloučil většinu kyselinotvorných potravin, zmizely i jeho bolesti v krku, rýmy a chřipky. Tato dieta je i zdravá: mezi zásadotvorné potraviny patří olivový olej, česnek, mandle, čočka, avokádo a špenát. *** Gene Stone je spisovatel, novinář a bývalý dobrovolník Mírových sborů, který v průběhu psaní o zdraví vyzkoušel desítky způsobů léčby od hypnoterapie po biofeedback a ájurvédskou bylinnou léčbu. Jeho články vycházejí v časopisech New York, Esquire, Vogue, Elle a GQ. Žije v New Yorku a je vegan (tajemství č. 17). *** „Tato kniha se čte skvěle... je originální, nabitá informacemi, nekonvenční a zábavná.“Andrew Weil „Kniha seznamuje čtenáře s neotřelými perličkami, díky kterým můžete být zdravější, šťastnější a moudřejší. Poutavá procházka vědeckými tématy.“Mark Hyman, M.D., New York Times
