The Longevity Diet The Only Proven Way to Slow the Aging Process and Maintain Peak Vitality--Through Calorie Restriction

Do you want to radically reduce your risk for cancer, heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and more-even to slow your aging process-and live decades longer than your parents and grandparents? Longtime calorie restriction (CR) practitioners and experts Brian M. Delaney and Lisa Walford show you how.

Roy L. Walford, MD, (1924-2004) was a gerontologist who pioneered research on effects of a low-calorie diet on aging. In addition to Beyond the 120 Year Diet, he was the author of seven other books, including the bestsellers Maximum Lifespan and The Anti-Aging Plan. He received his MD from the University of Chicago in 1948 and was professor of pathology at the UCLA School of Medicine. Author of 300 scientific articles, Walford was a delegate to the White House Conference on Aging, a member of the National Academy of Sciences Committee on Aging, and is still considered one of America's leading experts on gerontology.
