Life expectancy is increasing, but this is only good news if you stay well and can enjoy it. 10 SECRETS OF HEALTHY AGEING draws on the latest research findings and the health secrets of long-lived people, to outline the diet and lifestyle that will help you stay healthy, look younger and feel great as you age.

It also shares the secrets of staying as fit and as mentally alert as possible, for as long as possible.

Comprehensive, fascinating and practical, 10 SECRETS OF HEALTHY AGEING will help you enjoy better health and stay drug-free as you age.
