Life Extension

Although written nearly thirty years ago, what a treasure to have finally read. The area of nutritional supplements and alternative medicine is overwhelming filled with hype. Life Extension was a thrill to read because of the overall scientific approach to the question of Life Extension. After paying attention to the alternative medicine field for the last five years or so, it was only after reading this book that I understand the many biochemical interactions of vitamins and minerals within our bodies. I can honestly say Pearson and Shaw opened my eyes on a number of subjects and gave me renewed hope that there are serious researchers in this field and not just salesmen. I bet however, they are a little embarrassed by their predictions for the future. Randall at www.longevitycorp.com.

Let me say that I am not a Doctor, I am not an expert on this at all. I am just going to tell you what happened to me this past week, and you can take it or leave it... I was selling a house to a prospect, and in the course of talking to this gentleman I found out he was seventy six years old. This blew me away. This guy looked no more than fifty-five, I kid you not. I told him so. He laughed and said," Alot of people tell me that. Have you ever heard of a book called Life Extension?" I told him that I hadn't. He then told me that he got ahold of the book thirty years ago and has followed the regiman religiously for the past thirty years. I am telling you, this guy looks good. He has lived a very active life, and at the age of seventy six he is starting a new business! This guy so impressed me that I am going to used bookstores looking for this book!

Yikes! How can this INFORMATIVE, WONDERFUL book be out of print? My father cured himself of non-Hodgkins lymphoma using this book and I now need to have a copy to send to my son who is ill. Why doesn't every household have a copy of this book? This book is decades ahead of the rest of the world. My brother and I initially laughed at my Dad(about 12 years ago) when he started to talk about "free radicals" but he made a believer out of us! A couple of years ago he told us to stop eating TRANS FATS and now the government has picked up on the dangers of trans fats and is starting to make food producers label the foods with "Contains Trans fat" rather than "partially hydrogenated vegetable oil". If anyone knows where to obtain a copy of this book, please e-mail me! Thanks

When I first read "Life Extension, APSA" in 1987, I knew that Pearson and Shaw were brilliant researchers who had spent the last 13 years of their lives studying the vitamins, minerals and amino acids that would greatly improve and extend life. Literally everything they had advised years ago has been proven to be true with later scientific research from "free radical" damage to developing the anti-oxidant formula. I gave their first book, after I had read it, to a friend with a terminal disease. I am now heartsick to find out that the book is out of print. It's a bible of prevention and cure. I have been following their "radical" plan for nearly 13 yrs. I am 53, beautiful, totally fit, feeling great and look a decade younger than I am. I am in excellent health, run races, and my doctors are always amazed at my lab work. But I do want my book back 'cause I want to live to be 100!

This book is one of the most important of my library and I refer often to its contents. It is so appropiate and timely. The subject matter is consistently accurate with today's new revelations in medicine. I am a nurse and mother and find it fascinating that my children can have functioning thymus glands well into their adulthood which of course contributes to living to our genetic ages of well over 100!! There are so many validations with studies mentioned as well. This book you have to have.
