Put Old on Hold
Barbara Morris distils her own experience and her daily contact with seniors into an easy-to-follow program to minimise and reverse the negative aspects of ageing. Her recommendations for optimum nutrition, exercise, and mental stimulation can halt, and even reverse, the onset of old age. The adverse effects of negative thinking about ageing are explained, and strategies for combating these self-defeating attitudes are outlined in detail. Tests to determine biological age give readers a sense of how young they are now and what needs to be done to set and achieve their goals.
