Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
By 2020, 50per cent of adults in Europe will be over 50. Stoppard addresses this group, describing how to stay youthful, fit and healthy for longer. There is much sensible advice, including all the latest information on diet, exercise and chronic illnesses such as diabetes, heart conditions, Alzheimer's and arthritis. Features include items on instant rejuvenation techniques such as beauty treatments, yoga and youth-prolonging 'superfoods'. Miriam Stoppard is Britain's best-selling healthcare author; as a popular medical writer and broadcaster, and in her daily column for the Mirror, she has built up a solid reputation for helping people deal with life's emotional problems and health difficulties. As the 'Grey Vote' finally begins to make inroads on the cult of youth, there'll be a ready market for this authoritative volume.
