About this listen

Read by the author, Michael Greger MD.

'I have never recommended a book as good as this, ever.' - Chris Evans

The Sunday Times bestseller and as featured on the trending Netflix show You Are What You Eat.

Live better for longer with this ultimate guide to longevity from the bestselling author of How Not to Die.

We all want to stay healthy as we age but, with so many different claims out there, it can be hard to know the best advice to follow. In How Not to Age, Dr Michael Greger digs into the top peer-reviewed anti-ageing research to deliver a complete and optimal guide with simple steps to extend your lifespan and slow the adverse effects of ageing.

Inspired by the dietary and lifestyle patterns of the world’s centenarians and residents of ‘blue zone’ regions where people live the longest, Dr Greger presents easy, evidence-based ways to preserve the body functions that keep us feeling youthful, both physically and mentally. Can an apple a day really keep the doctor away? What’s better for your longevity, jogging for four hours or eating two handfuls of nuts twice a week?

Brimming with expertise, How Not to Age lays out practical strategies for living your longest, healthiest life – and for enjoying every moment of it.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

As others have said, it took me an hour to get used to Dr Greger’s unique voice. But I am from the UK. His enthusiasm is genuine and I really got into the listen, all 27 hours of it.

The information in this book is stunningly helpful. It is quite scientific, so those without a scientific mind may struggle a little. However, he links everything to his website with easy to digest videos.

I am a GP, and none of this type of science is taught to doctors in training. But nutrition and emotional learning is key to overall health and disease prevention. This book has provided me with a huge amount of vital information I have already started passing on to my patients.

Wonderful audiobook

Not to take anything from the book content at all but this audiobook is a compelling reason for when an author SHOULDN'T narrate. He's got extremely annoying inflection that distracts from the general understandability of the book.

Great health advice

I always listen to Dr Gregers books with a smile on my face. Not only is he naturally entertaining, particularly useful when reading such potentially dry content, his book is jam packed full of eye opening data. I now hope to live a good 10 years longer.

Outstanding Effort

I don’t recommend this book enough. The narration can be a little jarring in the first 15 minutes but bear with it I love the fact that all of the evidence is peer reviewed and referenced truly a book that has changed my perspective on my own diet and as he says we have control over what we choose to eat.

Eye opening

This book is packed full of detailed information and data which sometimes can be hard going to listen to, however hearing the key messages consistently coming through backed up by research it has genuinely changed my approach to what I'm eating. I certainly haven't changed from being a meat eater to a plant based diet overnight with no sugary treats, however I've started making small simple changes like introducing a lot more spices and herbs, just eating more veg and fruit and really cutty down on processed food. Of course I've always known they are good for you but that still didn't convince me to change but now I really understand the incredible difference they can make on my health. Amazing book that I'm telling everyone about.

Incredible book which has changed the way I think about food
