Usingtoday's most leading-edge therapies and
breakthroughsinthescienceoflongevity, one
of the pioneering holistic physicians of our
time shows howwe can healthfullyage to one
hundred, andbeyond.
The idea oflivingwell beyond one hundredyears—and
enjoyingthoseyearsingoodhealth—usedtobethestuff
ofscience fiction. No longer. C. Norman Shealy, M.D..
Ph.D.,whomCarolineMysscallsa"wizard-genius-scientist-
mystic-physician," offersLifeBeyond wo: Secrets ofthe
Fountain ofYouth. In this deeplylearned and revolu-
tionary book. Dr. Shealy provides a new concept of
longevity, one that reveals we can live far longer than
currentsciencesuggests.
Basichealthylivingandthe useofalternativether-
apieshave longbeen touted as "theway" towell-being,
but Dr. Shealy takes these tenets a step further. From
thephysiologyofstressanditseffectonthehumanmind
and bodyto the importance ofDHEA; from the proven
techniques ofphotostimulation and biofeedbacktrain-
ing to groundbreaking suggestions for alleviating
depression; from Shealys electromagnetic framework
oflife to his recommendations for optimal health. Life
Beyond 100 presents a detailed road map to achieve
healthyaging—or"youthing."
The result ofyears ofclinical practice and cutting-
edgeresearch,LifeBeyond 100alsoexposesthefallacies
behind many ofthe claims made bythe medical estab-
lishment and the pharmaceutical industry. Shealy
argues that rather than increasing people's life
expectancy, thesetwogroupscreatetheoppositeeffect,
consigninghundredsofthousandsofpeopletoanoften
miserableandprematureold-age bytreatingsymptoms
with an antidote—prescription medicine—that is often
worsethantheailmentitself.
