Recenzii

A top doctor reveals the surprising little life changes that'll keep you fit for decades longer
Utterly readable and entertaining it is packed tight with very valuable information, written by one of the leading medical doctors in Britain. In his eighth decade himself, the author is well qualified to dole out advice on living well as we age
Age UK wants everyone to 'love later life' and this highly readable book, which draws on the latest science, helps plot the course for how we can achieve it. Decline is not inevitable but the older we get, the greater the need for positive action if we're to stay fit and well. Sir Muir explains the how as well as the why of this and as such this book deserves to be essential reading
The message of this book is that prevention is as relevant at seventy years old as at twenty. We now know that we can postpone many problems that we have assumed to be due to ageing but which well-designed research now proves to be due to loss of fitness, preventable disease and loss of morale. Your health in older age can be improved and this book gives you the recipe for good health in your seventies, and better health in the decades to follow

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
'Essential reading' - Age UK

Sod 70! Keep fit, keep the brain going, and with a spot of good fortune you can be living a fulfilling, active life in your 70s, 80s, 90s and beyond!

Too many people think that ageing inevitably causes problems after seventy, but a lot of these can in fact be postponed or prevented because they are not caused by ageing, but by a loss of fitness, preventable disease, ageism and the negative beliefs and pessimistic attitudes that pervade society.

Shake off the stereotypes and empower yourself by adopting the simple actions described in this book. Keep fit, eat well, keep your brain active, and with a spot of good fortune you can be living a rewarding, active life into your eighties, nineties and beyond. Live better for longer, and remember, seventy is the end of the beginning, not the beginning of the end!

This edition includes new chapters on:
- The brain and the mind (including dementia prevention)
- Managing your NHS service
- Taking charge of your healthcare in the digital world
- Fighting back after lockdown

Part brain and body exercise book, part manifesto for a happier, healthier life - this book will show you how to Sod Seventy! and live life to the fullest.
