Dr. Casas' Age Management/Anti-Aging Book Recommendations
 

I would like to provide you with a list of books that I highly recommend.

According to Mark Twain, "The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them." I hope that these books will provide you with information that you can use and apply to your daily Age Management Medicine program and share with your loved ones.

1. The Immortality Edge: Realize the Secrets of Your Telomeres for a Longer, Healthier Life

Based on Nobel Prize-winning genetic research-a simple plan to keep your telomeres healthy for better health and longevity. Telomeres play an important role in protecting our chromosomes from critical damage.

Drawing from the groundbreaking discoveries about telomeres that won the 2009 Nobel Prize in Medicine, this book includes a highly prescriptive program that shows you how to live longer by slowing telomere shortening and rejuvenating your cells through relatively simple alterations in nutrition habits and other lifestyle changes.

10.The Anti-Aging Plan: The Nutrient-Rich, Low-Calorie Way of Eating for a Longer Life--The Only Diet Scientifically Proven to Extend Your Healthy Years [Paperback] Roy L. Walford (Author), Lisa Walford (Author)

This is the only diet scientifically proven to extend the length and quality of life. The late Dr. Roy L. Walford spent much of his life's work researching low-calorie diets, and is now recognized as a pioneer of what is widely recognized as "calorie restriction" (CR)-a diet consisting of fewer calories while maintaining adequate nutrition. This is the only diet that has been proven to retard aging and increase healthy life span in mammals. In just six months, by eating smaller amounts of highly nutritious foods, men in Dr. Walford's studies were shown to lose an average of 26 pounds, and women an average of 15 pounds, while cholesterol levels dropped by an average of 68 points. Blood pressure levels dropped from an average of 110/75 to 90/58 after only three months.

These books provide a wonderful source of information on the most important topics in Age Management Medicine: nutrition, exercise, supplementation, hormone balancing/replacement and research/breakthroughs.

I own and have read all of these books.

All of these books can be found either through your local bookstore, library or online (www.amazon.com).

I hope these books provide you with hours of enjoyable reading and the information that you need to continue to educate yourself in the area of Age Management/Anti-Aging Medicine.

I will be adding a new e-booklet to the Member Center soon with the most cutting edge, up- to- date information in Age Management Medicine from the most recent December 2010 International Conference in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine.
