About this listen

Read by the author, Michael Greger MD.

'I have never recommended a book as good as this, ever.' - Chris Evans

The Sunday Times bestseller and as featured on the trending Netflix show You Are What You Eat.

Live better for longer with this ultimate guide to longevity from the bestselling author of How Not to Die.

We all want to stay healthy as we age but, with so many different claims out there, it can be hard to know the best advice to follow. In How Not to Age, Dr Michael Greger digs into the top peer-reviewed anti-ageing research to deliver a complete and optimal guide with simple steps to extend your lifespan and slow the adverse effects of ageing.

Inspired by the dietary and lifestyle patterns of the world’s centenarians and residents of ‘blue zone’ regions where people live the longest, Dr Greger presents easy, evidence-based ways to preserve the body functions that keep us feeling youthful, both physically and mentally. Can an apple a day really keep the doctor away? What’s better for your longevity, jogging for four hours or eating two handfuls of nuts twice a week?

Brimming with expertise, How Not to Age lays out practical strategies for living your longest, healthiest life – and for enjoying every moment of it.

With 13'000 scientific references and taking three years work to write, this book is incredible and life changing. Plus I love Dr. Greger's enthusiastic narration.

A masterpiece

Thorough information; looks at the ‘natural’ and the scientific all backed by experience and research. Excellent to listen to on Audible-while walking my 20+ minutes a day.

I love this book and all the info in it but the chapters are only numbered so impossible to jump to the relevant section. I wanted to read the section I'm most interested in first as he suggested at the start of the book but the audible version doesn't want to be helpful and tell me what each chapter is.

just get the book
