Review

"One of the best books I have read on anti-aging/preventive medicine. Easy to read, very user-friendly." -- California HealthSpan Patient

About the Author

Ron Rothenberg, MD, FACEP, Board Certified, American Board of Anti-Aging Medcine, Founder California HealthSpan Institute.

Dr. Rothenberg graduated from Columbia University of Physician and Surgeons in New York in 1970 and completed his residency in Emergency Medicine at the Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center in 1975. Dr. Rothenberg received an academic appointment to the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine in 1978 and was promoted to full Clinical Professor of Family and Preventive Medicine in 1989. In addition to his work in the field of Anti-Aging Medicine, Dr. Rothenberg is also an Attending Physician at Scripps Memorial Hospital in Encinitas, California.

As a pioneer in the field of Anti-Aging Medicine, Dr. Rothenberg was among the first group of physicians to be recognized for his expertise in this rapidly emerging field. Dr. Rothenberg was the 10th M.D. in the world to become fully board certified in the specialty of anti-aging medicine and is currently a Board Examiner for the American Board of Anti-Aging Medicine.

Dr. Rothenberg founded California HealthSpan Institute in 1998 with a commitment to transforming our understanding of and finding treatments for the disease process called aging. Dr. Rothenberg is dedicated to the belief that the process of physical aging can be slowed, stopped or even reversed through esisting medical and scientific interventions. Challenging traditional medicine's approach to treating the external symptoms of aging, California HealthSpan Institute works towards preventing the disease processes typically associated with aging by addressing the internal causes before they become external symptoms. Dr. Rothenberg believes that a hormonally correct diet, appropriate exercise, bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, brain-boosting exercises, supplements and medications and stress reduction interventions can help individuals improve the quality and quantity of their lives by increasing HealthSpan, not just lifespan.

5.0 out of 5 stars May you stay forever young!, January 15, 2004
This review is from: Forever Ageless (Paperback)
Forever Ageless is an in-depth handbook on anti-aging therapies and protocols. It presents a programme of exercise, stress reduction, diet and supplementation, including the use of natural hormones. The information is well researched and the scope of the work is extensive.

The book provides cutting-edge information on the very latest supplements that assist in maintaining health. One of these is carnosine, an important anti-oxidant with anti-glycation properties. The amino acid N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) is recommended for its multiple benefits, whilst some of the other youth-preserving substances are CoQ10, fish oil, lipoic acid and friendly intestinal bacteria like acidophilus.

To keep the brain young and healthy, the best supplements to take include Acetyl-L-Carnitine, Phosphatydilserine, Vinpocetine, DMAE and Gingko Biloba. Their effects and benefits are thoroughly explained. Smart drugs like Hydergine and Deprenyl (Eldepryl) that show great promise, are also discussed in this chapter.

The authors present a comprehensive investigation of hrmones and hormone replacement, making a good case for the transdermal delivery of testosterone and natural progesterone through the use of patches or creams. Considering growth hormone deficit as a major factor in aging, the authors call it "tissue repair hormone" and recommend supplementation.

I highly recommend this book to all people over 30 who wish to stop the clock of biological aging and remain healthy. Similar books with valuable information include Renewal by Timothy J. Smith, The Superhormone Promise by William Regelson & Carol Colman, and The Anti-Aging Bible by Earl Mindell.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST OF IT'S KIND BY THE BEST IN HIS FIELD, September 10, 2007
By 
I HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN AGELESS MEDICAL MANAGEMENT FOR 12 YEARS AND I HAVE AN EXTENSIVE LIBRARY OF TEXTS ON THE SUBJECT. DR. ROTHENBERGS TEXT IS CLEARLY THE STELLAR PERFORMER. IT IS AN ABSOLUTE 'MUST HAVE' FOR ALL PRACTIONERS IN THIS DRAMATIC FIELD OF MEDICINE. MORE IMPORTANTLY, IT IS WRITTEN IN A STYLE THAT IS EASILY UNDERSTANDABLE FOR THE LAY PUBLIC AND ANYONE INTERESTED, AND OBVIOUSLY, AT ANY AGE. I PARTICULARLY LIKE THE FORMAT OF THE BOOK. DR. ROTHENBERG PROGRESSES FROM AN UNDERSTANDING OF PREVENTATIVE MEDICINE AND CONTINUES WITH VERY FACTUAL AND CONCRETE PARADIGMS FOR ANYONE INTERESTED IN TAKING AN ACTIVE ROLE IN THEIR HEALTH CARE. FOR THE MORE DELVING, THERE IS PLENTY OF PHYSIOLOGY AND HARDCORE EXPLANATION OF HORMONE AND VITAMIN/MINERAL SUPPLEMENTATION. SPECIFIC DIET AND DIETARY DAILY SCHEDULES ARE PROVIDED AS WELL AS COPIOUS MATERIAL ON EXERCISE. THE DIAGRAMS ACCOMPANYING THE TEXT ARE SIMPLE, CLEAR AND PRECISE. DR ROTHENBERG DOES AN EXTENSIVE EVALUATION OF BIO IDENTICAL HORMONE THERAPY AND EVEN A TAD ON STEM CELL RESEARCH. THERE IS A VAST SECTION ON DOCUMENTATION WITH ARTICLES TO SUPPORT THE ENCLOSED MATERIAL. BRIEFLY, I CAN ONLY SAY THAT THIS IS THE FINEST TREATISE ON THE SUBJECT OF ANTI-AGING AND PERSONAL PREVENTATIVE HEALTH MEASURES THAT HAS BEEN WRITTEN TO DATE. EXTRAORDINARILY WELL DONE AND ON A COMPLEX TOPIC![[ASIN:1604028343 Forever Ageless,
