This reference book provides a compelling reason to take antioxidants although it reads as easily as a novel. It explains the theory of how antioxidants reduces the aging of cells and improves the body's ability to resist diseases. It cites medical research studies as a rationale for each statement and provides researcher's "testimony" of what they personally take as a result of their research.

Informative and usefull
31 May 2002
Format:Paperback
I love this book so much. It's full of information the average person can easily put to use every day. It's written in a way that's straight-forward and easy to understand. You can just zip right through it without falling asleep. Let's face it, nobody is reading this book for the entertainment value. Jean Carper's style is right on the mark, just give the information is a simple way, never long-winded. There is something in here for everyone. Even a couch potato could read this book, basically stay a couch potato, but still get something out of this book is they follow some of the advice in here. There are no gimmicks in here, just practical information you can put to good use every day.

The advices in the book already works for me !
23 Jan 1999
Format:Paperback
I have followed many of the advices of this book for about one and a half year and I have never felt so energic ! And people around me can notice it ! My copy of "Stop ageing now " has been translated into Norwegian. Most Norwegians ( including me ) unfortunatly are quite conservative to supplements and health foods . This book changed my mind . My immune system colappsed after I had my first child three years ago.( I was 28 then) I had lots of virus - infections non - stop for about one year. The doctors did not give any good advices and did not take this seriously. When I read this book I decided to go for the good advices and after a few months things started to change. I got lots of energy. My skin looks good, it never feels dry ( I dont need so much body lotion). I have only had two small virus - infections this year and that is a personal best. I do not need so much sleep as before and I seldom feel really tired and exhausted.The bags under my eyes are gone.I thought I would have to cope with them for the rest of my life. could have mentioned a lot more, but all I can say is : Don`t miss this opportunity to stay healthy. The advices in the book comes from experts . Do not stop visiting your doc.though , and have a healthy future ! PS. I`m still to young to know if I will stay young. I`ll write again in about 20 years and give a report.

very informative
24 April 2000
Format:Paperback
The most important question this book answered for me, was why should someone who eats a sound diet take supplements. I was surprised to learn that, because of all the toxins and stress we are exposed to, a healthy person who doesn't take supplements still runs the risk of getting cancer, cataracts, and other degenerative diseases. The first part of the book deals with the supplements you need to take. The author covers the findings, the dosage and the form you should take. She also discusses 'how much is too much' for each supplement. Then she advices you which foods to avoid (too much iron can make you age, too!) and why. 12 supplements are covered, and three are essential( vitamins E, C and beta carotene), according to the author's research. 5 anti-aging foods are discussed, as well. Even if you are already a cancer patient or aging, the findings indicate that you can reverse the damage, with time. The book was very easy to understand, and fun to read, if you are into improving your health.
