About This Book
What if the biggest threat to your future isn't a disease you'll get, but the twelveyears of declining health almost everyone gets first?
According to National Institute on Aging research, the average American nowspends roughly the last 12 years of life in declining health — chronic disease,mobility limitation, cognitive decline, or some combination of the three, stacked atthe end of a life that modern medicine has gotten very good at extending and notnearly as good at making worth extending.
Call it the Healthspan Gap: the spacebetween the year your body starts failing you and the year you actually die. It is notprimarily a genetics problem — most of it is still being decided, right now, by whatyou do on an ordinary Tuesday.
