In this lecture (recorded live), Dr. Greger offers a sneak peek into his latest book, How Not to Age.

Inspired by the dietary and lifestyle patterns of centenarians and residents of “blue zone” regions where people live the longest, Dr. Greger presents simple, accessible, and evidence-based methods to preserve the body functions that keep you feeling youthful, both physically and mentally.

This is a fascinating and amazing video! I had previously seen it as I paid for it via a Dr. Greger webinar, but it's so good that I've watched it multiple times!

Regardless of the validity of the claims or conclusions (or ultimate outcomes) of the book or its academic basis, the production values of Greger's videos and presentations are high. Editing, highlighting, cutting to the chase. THIS is the way to conduct "longitudinal" synthesis in the modern era of short-form video.

I'm more than halfway through the video. My thought is the same as KHashmi above, some of the claims done in the book/presentation seem to be a little overblown (like the superlative antiaging effect of spermidine). The sources are accurately chosen among the pro-vegan literature. Still, the presentation is highly entertaining, the quality is there and there is probably also some scattered truth among all the exaggerated claims he makes on the properties of plant-based food.

Last but not least, it is good to have a counterpoint to the muscle-centric, exercise-centric model of Peter Attia. With Dr. Greger, we have here a nutrition-centric model.

What I do, is not to concentrate on the differences, but rather to pick the best of both worlds.
