Want to live to 120? Then pick up a copy of Renewal: The Anti-Aging Revolution by Timothy J. Smith M.D., and start making diet and lifestyle changes today. In Renewal, Dr. Smith, a practicing physician with more than 25 years of experience in a broad range of disciplines, including alternative, nutritional, and Chinese medicine, provides specific instructions to keep your body from wearing out prematurely or succumbing to the ravages of degenerative disease.

Renewal incorporates the latest longevity research and is packed with terrific information that is a pleasure to read. You'll learn how and why we age and, more important, how to reverse heart disease, destroy cancer cells, erase visible signs of aging, boost brain power, attack aging at the cellular level, and extend your life span by protecting healthy cells and repairing or replacing damaged or dead ones. This challenging program has three components: an anti-aging diet (a low-fat, vegan eating plan), supplement program (which includes sections on phytochemicals, fiber, and herbs like ginkgo, garlic, and ginseng), and exercise program. Renewal also contains a 14-day meal plan with recipes and chapters on anti-aging hormones and "smart pills." Follow Dr. Smith's advice and you'll keep each of your body's 100 trillion cells humming for decades to come.
