Book Description

May 1, 2008
Virtually all recent medical research on aging points to the fact that the human animal, you and me included, has the potential to live up to 120 years of age.

That means 120 active, happy and productive years ... not years in a rocking chair, wheel chair or nursing home. That being the case, THE SECOND HALF of our lives does indeed BEGIN AT 60.... However, since most of us have spent the first part of our lives mistreating our God given equipment, this human body of ours; so we may not all make it to 120. But the good news is that most of us should be able to make it to 100 and well over. This book is dedicated at giving us the best possible chance at reaching as near as possible to our true life potential.

Let's re-emphasize, we are talking about healthy, happy, active and productive years full of the things we enjoy doing.

How often have you heard the question, "If you had it to do over again, what would you change?" Well, if you are coming up on 50, theoretically, you do have it all to do over again. Just think what you should be able to do with those years, knowing all that you've learned in the first 50!

Follow this program, and within a year you should be as fit as you can be, and headed for as bright and long a future as possible, may you live to 120!

Editorial Reviews

Review

It is a fascinating, life changing read. Drs Seiden and Bilett quickly demostrate what works and what doesn't work in cultures regarding longevity.

The explanations and suggestions are clear and simple and everyone can follow this method and feel better and live longer! --EJ Thornton - best-selling author of Secrets to Creating Passive Income

About the Author

Othniel J. Seiden, M.D.
Jane L. Bilett, Ph.D.


As one of the medical professionals in the charitable rganization Doctors To The World, Dr. Othniel J. Seiden has seen many cultures and made many amazing discoveries.

His fascination about the longevity of the population in third world countries was of particular interest. He was uniquely positioned to study the phenomenon people who the West would typically classify as poor living to 100 and even 120.

He studied their diets, their lifestyle and their beliefs and began to understand what factors help them to achieve such long lives. As a physician, Othniel colors those findings and applies them to the lifestyles of the Western world.

Weaving in Jane Bilett s psychotherapy research, these two authors show us not only why it is possible to achieve a life span of 120, but that it can be achieved by some simple lifestyle changes.

More About the Author

I do not have a literary background, though I did a year of graduate study at the University of Missouri School of Journalism, my real background is medical. I graduated from the University of Missouri School of Medicine in 1964 and practiced for 44 years, first as a General Practitioner, and the last 30 as an E.R. doc. I began writing as an avocation to help me unwind after a long day in the E.R. My writing went in two directions, one Historical Fiction, and the other Medical Self-Help, my forte translating medical information into easily understood lay language. In recent years that Self-Help has been more in the direction of Baby Boomer and senior health and emotional problems.
My Historical Novels deal mainly with Judaical, Holocaust, and Biblical History. Most of my books are both in print and on Amazon Kindle. Please enjoy! With over 40 books published by 10 different publishers I've been named Colorado's most prolific author. Google Othniel Seiden

5.0 out of 5 stars 100 years of life is becoming more common!, March 17, 2011
As a physician I've seen lots of people die young, but I've also seen people live to over 100 years, and it's getting far more common in recent years. The human body was designed to last easily 100 years and more, but too many of us seem to do everything in our power to shorten that time. In most cases the difference in short and long lives is a matter of lifestyle, and those differences are not that great. This book tells you what simple changes in lifestyle will get you long, healthy life. I'm not talking about added years in a wheel chair, but joyful active years. This book helps you to reach your longest possible life potential, healthy, active, and fun years.
