This book takes a look at a subject which has obsessed mankind for hundreds of years - the extension of one's life. The author examines the lifespan of the average person today and compares it to the potential of a human lifespan. In doing this, the author considers the debate between nature and nurture as the most important determining factor in long life. Focusing on four areas which affect the ageing process - safe stimulation of natural growth hormone, calorie restriction, slowing down the metabolic rate and antitoxidant nutrition - this book uses a combination of these four areas to influence lifespan.
