## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very interesting book
*by G***. on 11 August 2025*

The book is very well written. I found a lot of very interesting information. Most importantly, the recommendations are supported by peer reviewed research. The author seems to be very careful in the analysis.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent & Extremely Informative
*by M***E on 10 February 2018*

I have been an avid follower of Professor Valter Longos’s work and studies since first seeing a BBC Documentary in 2012 - Eat, Fast & Live Longer. This man is nothing short of a genius. Having gone through my own health problems: Bulimia, then a massive benign tumour in my head which lead me to an operation and then into intensive radiation treatment I found his studies fascinating, insightful & inspiring to me personally & I wanted to know & learn more. Over the past 2 decades I have either been, bulimic, vegan, vegetarian, or now for the last 15 years pescatarian at which time I had no idea that such a name even existed. When I found out that Professor Longo had written a book on Longevity I couldn’t wait for it to be published in English. I have a Kindle copy and a book. His book has given me so much knowledge that I didn’t previously have and the information is easy enough to process if you take the trouble. For me, where his book stands out from many other books is that most of the information in this book is based on his own studies and research from throughout his 30 something years of study & research on Longevity. There are no gimmicks just straightforward facts on longevity & how to proceed with his longevity diet with the everyday fruits, vegetables, legumes etc. that we find in our supermarkets or farmers markets. He clearly explains why & which fruits, veg etc are better for you. How simple can it be to follow a mostly plant-based diet - but the truth be known for most of us is that we will continue to eat bad & fast food until the heart attack hits or our cholesterol is through the roof, or like so many people in the Western World we develop diabetes. He clearly explains how we can avoid or correct these problems by using his longevity diet. The book is entertaining as well as full of necessary, important information for living a longer & disease- free life. Prevention is always better than cure. I am a writer and in my own research I have read many, many articles with misinformed information, on many different subjects & I only want facts & proven studies as in this book. Lastly, 100% of all the royalties from Professor Longo’s books go back into his research, another great reason to purchase the book. I promise you, you will not be disappointed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ so the book is written by someone who has a good understanding of nutrition and its impact on health
*by I***P on 2 May 2018*

There are a lot of positives in this book. The starting point is that the author is an actual university professor, who has carried out many published and peer-validated studies on longevity, so the book is written by someone who has a good understanding of nutrition and its impact on health, rather than a self-styled "nutritionist". The core message is eat a largely vegan diet, with occasional (and small!) portions of fish. I already try and aim for this.The author is also a great believer in 5 day fasting periods throughout the year.What stops me giving it a full five stars is that the book was originally written in Italian, I believe, and it occasionally shows. Some parts are not as clear as they might be. For example, Professor Longo stresses the importance of minimising protein. A detailed explanation of why, and whether it is really all protein, or just animal derived protein, is lacking.Appendix A contains two-weeks worth of sample meals. Some parts of these sample meals are surprising - the daily snack is usually a glass of some nut milk with a "nut and whole grain chocolate bar containing 150 calories". Really? Can you really not suggest a healthier choice?
