My grandmother is 89 years old, healthy as a horse and twice as independent, and swears by any info given out by Dr. Gott. This book presents his advice in the same format as his column; letters from people with Dr. Gott's advice. Great presentation and great info. And if it's good enough for Grandma, its bound to help the rest of us youngsters.
Good advice for everyone.

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
In Live Longer, Live Better: Taking Care Of Your Health After 50, popular medical columnist and physician Peter H. Gott, offers the non-specialist general reader a straightforward primer for all-around better health. Chapters address a wide range of common health concerns such as hypertension, anxiety and depression, sex, diabetes, stroke, cholesterol, osteoporosis, memory loss, senility and dementia, and much more. Presented in a simple question-and-answer format, Live Longer, Live Better is recommended reading; the health advice is quite pertinent to all ages, and in today's era of skyrocketing health care insurance prices, an ounce of prevention is worth much more than a pound of cure.
