About this title

Review

Anti–aging expert Giampapa (Quantum Longevity), DNA researcher Pero and nutritionist Zimmerman present a five–step program that claims to reverse the aging process. Before readers can say they’ve seen this before, the authors insist their book is different because it “attacks aging at its genetic roots with a comprehensive plan.” Giampapa, Pero and Zimmerman first present a set of simple self–examinations for readers to “factor their personal aging equation” by measuring “aging indicators” like chronic pain, poor memory and reduced mobility. After a detailed explanation of how poor nutrition and free–radical damage promote aging, the authors present their program, which intends to change “the way our genes express themselves.” The five stages consist of reducing stress, enhancing nutrition, exercising regularly, using dietary supplements and caring for the skin. For each step, the authors offer an abundance of helpful pointers; their advice on nutrition and its effects is particularly useful. Among the book’s perks are easy to follow, color–coded charts detailing a healthy diet (which can be modified for vegetarians), recommended exercise routines that are beneficial but not overly demanding, skin care regimens and a list of suppliers of nutraceuticals (natural, bioactive chemical compounds that have health–promoting, disease–preventing or medicinal properties).

Forecast: With a $75,000 marketing budget, publicity in New York and New Jersey, and national print and radio campaigns, this book has a shot at selling out its 50,000–copy first printing. (Publishers Weekly, February 16, 2004)

From the Back Cover

"Aging is optional. We don t have to age like our parents. We can hold on to our vitality and look well into our later years. Programs such as I outlined in The Perricone Prescription and Dr. Giampapa and his coauthors have so brilliantly and lucidly put forth in The Anti–Aging Solution: 5 Simple Steps to Looking and Feeling Young are the tools we need to ensure that this can happen. In addition to his own cutting–edge research, Dr. Giampapa has gathered up the proven research of many scientists to present his five–step program. When we lower our stress, make the right food choices, take targeted nutritional supplements, and follow a moderate yet effective fitness program, we are well on our way to achieving the dream of a long, healthy, and active life into our final decades."
