Renewal: The Anti-Aging Revolution [Mass Market Paperback]

Renewal incorporates the latest longevity research and is packed with terrific information that is a pleasure to read. You'll learn how and why we age and, more important, how to reverse heart disease, destroy cancer cells, erase visible signs of aging, boost brain power, attack aging at the cellular level, and extend your life span by protecting healthy cells and repairing or replacing damaged or dead ones. This challenging program has three components: an anti-aging diet (a low-fat, vegan eating plan), supplement program (which includes sections on phytochemicals, fiber, and herbs like ginkgo, garlic, and ginseng), and exercise program. Renewal also contains a 14-day meal plan with recipes and chapters on anti-aging hormones and "smart pills." Follow Dr. Smith's advice and you'll keep each of your body's 100 trillion cells humming for decades to come. --Ellen Albertson --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

"While we can't stop the aging process, we can make dramatic changes in the way we age. In his book Renewal, Dr. Timothy Smith shows us how." --New Orleans Times-Picayune

"Smith combines alternative and Western medical approaches, focusing on both physical and mental components in his program that facilitates the body's capacity to regenerate its own vitality." --Publishers Weekly

"Smith, whose background combines mainstream medicine with ideas from the Far East, is among the increasing number of doctors who make a distinction between the Recommended Daily Allowance first established by the government in the early 1940s and what he calls the Optimum Daily Allowances needed to live longer and better." --Birmingham (AL) News
