Publisher Description

Medical director of the world-famous Canyon Ranch Health Resorts, Dr. Mark Liponis presents his extraordinary new idea: that aging and aging-related diseases -- including heart disease, cancer, and diabetes -- are autoimmune problems, and that a well-managed immune system is the key to healthy aging.

Cutting-edge research makes UltraLongevity the first and only book to explore aging within the context of the immune system, and it will change the way we look at health forever.

Starting with a quiz -- "How Fast Are You Aging?" -- Liponis explains the new science, lays out an accessible and proven 7-step program with an 8-day meal plan, and motivates readers to put the program into practice so that they can keep their minds sharp, become more physically fit, be more resistant to infections and disease, and feel and stay younger than they ever imagined. Through the UltraLongevity program, Liponis promises more than a long life; he promises a long, healthy life.

Praise for UltraLongevity:

"What an awesome and practical anti-aging program! Dr. Liponis's approach to longevity is based on proven technological breakthroughs supported by hundreds of studies. This is the best original thinking I have seen in decades!" -- Stephen T. Sinatra, MD, FACC, CNS, coauthor of Reverse Heart Disease Now

"UltraLongevity is a treasure -- it's loaded with exactly the kind of information everyone needs to live well and vibrantly-for as long as possible." -- Christiane Northrup, MD, author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom

". . . an insightful, simplified, and integrated approach to achieving optimal health, wellness, and longevity." -- Richard Carmona, MD, MPH, FACS, 17th Surgeon General of the United States

"The main idea that stayed with me after reading this book is that inflammation is an underlying cause of a lot of woes, and addressing that idea alone can improve how you feel and function every day. It's certainly true for me. "

Quotes

  • “Liponis renders the complicated immune system understandable by comparing it to our nation's Homeland Security—investigating intruders and warding off potential threats. His seven steps to a healthy system (breathe, eat, sleep, dance, love, soothe, enhance) are well reasoned and sensible.”

    — Publishers Weekly
  • “Narrator Peter Johnson has a sense of authority and expertise as he delivers the secrets of medical wellness and lengthening one’s life span. Johnson’s narration makes Dr. Liponis’s complicated explanations of the body’s intricate functions understandable and credible. The ease of his reading gives one the sense that one may be listening to a general practitioner during a routine physical in the examination room.”

  • “This bold new theory places aging and disease within the context of our immune systems, thus presenting new possibilities for living longer, healthier lives. A breakthrough book that no baby boomer can ignore.”              

    — Barnes & Noble, editorial review
  • “Ultralongevity is a treasure. It's loaded with exactly the kind of information everyone needs to live well and vibrantly—for as long as possible.”

    — Christine Northrup, MD
