About this title

Synopsis

Live Longer and Stay Healthier - How nutrition is the key to a maximum healthy lifespan

Few people – perhaps as few as 1 in 10,000 – actually die of old age. Because a truly healthy life span is at least 100.

Sadly, and as we now know often unnecessarily, heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s and other illnesses rob most people of their health – and therefore a full quality of life – years before their time.

Yet evidence from healthy centenarians and from certain populations shows that the risk of each of these diseases can be cut dramatically through simple nutritional means. Offering not just a longer life, but a longer quality life.
Leading medical scientist Dr Paul Clayton has spent years painstakingly combing through more than 10,000 studies to identify the nutrients with the most proven role in long term health.

In all, Dr Clayton has isolated nine separate groups of protective nutrients. They hold out the promise of broad protection against disease, without unrealistic changes to your own everyday diet.

Through the advice in Health Defence you and your family can enjoy a level of nutrition that will put you among the top 0.1% of healthy diets on the planet.
