Young Forever: The Secrets to Living Your Longest, Healthiest Life (The Dr. Mark Hyman Library, 11) Hardcover – February 21, 2023

I’ve just finished this fascinating read, and what a true guide to living well. The author presents the principles of a long-lasting, healthy life in a clear, approachable, and engaging way.It took me some time to work through the book, not because it was difficult, but because it offers so many valuable insights worth reflecting on and gradually applying. This is the kind of book that invites a slower pace, encouraging you to absorb and personalize the ideas along the way.You might notice all the notes and highlights throughout, I plan to return to it often as a reference to revisit, refine, and realign my habits over time.Highly recommended reading!

Thank you @littlebrownspark and @netgalley for my advanced eCopy of this fantastic book by one of my favorite authors, @drmarkhyman. My thoughts are my own.“Learn how to get biologically YOUNGER while growing physically OLDER!”I have been reading the work of Dr. Mark Hyman for years, so I was very excited to get early access to this book. Dr. Hyman has a great way of explaining scientific/medical processes in a way that the reader without a medical degree can easily understand.This well-written and well-researched book is divided in three parts. In the first part, Dr. Hyman explains “How and Why We Age”. Yes, some paragraphs may take a second reading as you absorb what he is explaining, but I believe the explanation is critical to understanding the WHY of the program! (And, the explanation is what ultimately motivates me to make changes in my eating, movement, and lifestyle habits!) Dr. Hyman explains the breakdown of systems in our body causing chronic disease and inflammation. He discusses obesity and lack of sleep, as well as other issues.Before you get overwhelmed with what may already be wrong with your body, in Part 2, Dr. Hyman discusses “Optimizing Your Health Span and Life Span”. He explains how you can begin to eat, move, and improve your lifestyle in order to balance your biological systems and activate your repair systems.In Part 3, Dr. Hyman explains the Forever Young program. Dr. Hyman calls this is your step-by-step guide to “diagnose the imbalances in your system and to implement a radical change in your health.” (p. 163) Dr. Hyman discusses foods, the best diet, supplements, and more. Your daily habits influence how you age and with this program you can begin today to take steps to reverse this.I am implementing these changes in my life today!I can’t say enough how much I enjoyed this book and truly plan to implement changes in my daily habits.This book is out now!

Easy to read... A good book which is great for your health

Love: Dr. Hyman's efforts to bring good science about how to become healthier, stave-off or reverse/slow disease processes in an affordable manner to the masses.The Function blood testing panel he recommends is excellent. I know of many who have spent $4000.-$10000. to have these tests done that are not covered by insurance, but are necessary to more accurately one's health and health trajectory. $499. for the blood test panel Function offers is outstanding. I've spent $240. for just one of the tests offered and he offers approx 100. Additionally, Function makes suggestions on what improvements to make based on the results. I think it's totally worth it to read the book and have the blood panel done.Need Improvement:Ease of understanding. It's true, you can't 'dummy down' the science because nuance is necessary and is the point of individualized customized medicine. I've recommended or given the book to several people; some find it too hard to follow and others find it refreshing. The former appreciate the information but the way the book is written makes it feel too complex. I think it's a matter of format. Again, it's hard simplify something that necessarily requires educating people on complex topics in order to retain content integrity.Suggestion:Although the book offers the line about how some will go all out and some will not, it might be helpful to include what benefits are derived at varying levels of program implementation.Although it's vital and admirable to get the information out, people can feel discouraged and not try at all if the program feels financially out of reach or too complicated.

I have at least 50 books from many functional Docs, integrative medicine and also western MDs this is one of the better ones i have ever owned. Buy the Book over Audible you will want to highlight and write all over it. There is some very advanced information that is presented in layman's terms which is greatly appreciated. He does a great job of communicating in a way that is both inspiring and feels achievable. The 21 pages of resource notes is very comprehensive and solidify the new information to be genuine and scientifically backed. The resource pages are more than worth the price of the book. I would say anyone who gives this book a poor rating either skim-read it or did not read it, or they are just not intelligent enough to comprehend this cutting-edge information. I wish I could gife it 10 stars! I have 2 other books by Mark Hyman and this is for sure his Best book to date. Thank you sir for your contribution to the health of the world, you more than deserve every penny you make for your efforts!!!! Bravo
