Live better for longer with this ultimate guide to longevity from the Sunday Times bestselling author of How Not to Die and founder of NutritionFacts.org.

This audio edition is captivatingly read by the author, Michael Greger MD.


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-aging research to deliver a complete and optimal guide with simple steps to extend your lifespan and slow the adverse effects of aging.

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? And are carrots or berries more beneficial to your eyesight?

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