Overview

In a culture obsessed with good health and youthful vigor, it's surprising how limited the success stories in this area are. While 75 percent of all deaths in the U.S. are caused by preventable types of vascular disease and cancer, most people only change the way they eat and exercise after they've suffered a catastrophic illness. In Stay Young, Start Now, Dr. Alan Bonsteel takes a dual approach to this problem, synthesizing research from a wide variety of disciplines that integrate the mind and body, and using an upbeat, inspiring tone to inform readers of the benefits of taking care of their mental and physical health. The book reinforces these benefits by showing how the pleasures of youth - boundless energy, less stress, sexual fulfillment, athletic skill, and camaraderie - are available to any age group. Getting up off the couch, exercising with friends, making love, and reducing stress at work and home through prayer, meditation, and community activism will transform the aging process from ordeal to opportunity.
