Description

This easy-to-follow, comprehensive book outlines a lifestyle plan that integrates the principles of nutrition, diet, exercise, brain health and relationships that can help you not only live a long life but also a healthier more fulfilling life. The Path to Longevity is a summary of more than 20 years of research, clinical practice and Luigi Fontana's accumulated knowledge on healthy longevity, using an evidence-based approach. Rather than trying to treat sick people with medicine, Professor Luigi Fontana set out to discover how we can avoid the chronic illnesses in our society, and live long, healthy and happier lives.

Credited with conducting the foundational research that gave rise to the 5:2 diet, Professor Fontana's revolutionary work is leading the world on longevity and the factors involved in living a long and healthy life.
