"If getting healthier is part of your . . .plan, this book is a must read… . . . Dr. Day shares a proven program to help readers feel sharper, more motivated, and to live pain-free." —Huffington Post, Best Books of the Year
At forty-four, acclaimed cardiologist John D. Day was overweight and suffering from insomnia, degenerative joint disease, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. On six medications, he needed to make a change. While lecturing in China, he heard about a remote mountainous area known as Longevity Village, a wellness Shangri-la free of disease, and where living past one hundred—in good health—is not uncommon.
In the hope of understanding this incredible phenomenon, Dr. Day decided to spend some time in Longevity Village. He learned everything he could about this place and its people and met its centenarians. His research revealed seven principles that work in tandem to create health, happiness, and longevity—rules he applied to his own life. Six months later, he'd lost thirty pounds, dropped one hundred points off his cholesterol and twenty-five points off his blood pressure, and was even cured of his acid reflux and insomnia.
Now Dr. Day shares his story and proven program to help you feel sharper, more motivated, productive, and pain-free. The Longevity Plan is not only a fascinating travelogue but also a practical, accessible, and groundbreaking guide to a better life.
"Practical, applicable health guidance validated by a remarkable collective of revered Chinese elders." —Kirkus Reviews
"The Days are brilliant writers who have created a book that reads like a story but teaches like a textbook—and what it teaches is how to add both quantity and quality to our lives." —Richard and Linda Eyre, #1 New York Times–bestselling authors of Life in Full
