Manual of Healthy Longevity and Wellbeing

Luigi Fontana · 2023
85/100
👍 Worth It

Luigi Fontana is the real deal — a world-leading longevity scientist with decades of peer-reviewed research behind him, and this book shows it. The three-part structure covering diet, exercise, and wellbeing is genuinely comprehensive, and the 80-plus Mediterranean recipes make the science immediately livable. Dense in places, but that is a fair trade for evidence you can actually trust.
