Senior Fitness: The Diet and Exercise Program For Maximum Health and Longevity

Description

Nearing 70, Ruth Heidrich has the bone mass density of a woman in her early thirties and a resting heart rate of 44. Not only that, but she has survived breast cancer for over twenty years and recovered from several accidents that have broken limbs and stopped her (temporarily) doing from what she loves best—keeping fit and being positive.

In Senior Fitness, the "other" Dr. Ruth demonstrates that the senior years don’t have to filled with aches and pains. She shows how to dramatically reduce the risk of prostate cancer, varicose veins, osteoporosis, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, arthritis, Alzheimer’s, and a host of other ailments and diseases that can affect older people. Full of detailed medical information, Senior Fitness shows you how you can eat healthfully, stay fit, and maintain a positive and go-getting attitude to life, maintaining and even increasing physical and sexual fitness well into your latter decades. Part compendium of vital information for your vital signs and part inspiring handbook for taking control of your health and well-being, Senior Fitness is the perfect companion for all those seeking to make life after 60 full of life and dynamism.

Summary: "Senior book"

I too am an old hippie chick from the 60's but this is way way too hippie dippy for me. Good and valid information but too weird for me.

Summary: "Vegan based nutriotion so limited if not aVegan"

Lot's of good material and helpful information. With the base theme of anything non vegan is not good it is somewhat limited in its use if you are not a Vegan. Outside of that I found it an informative, helpful read.

Summary: "Amazing book! NOT just for seniors!!!"

I love this book so much that I keep renewing it from the library... can't seem to part with it.

Ruth Heidrich is such an inspiration, I truly wish I could get everyone I know to read this book. While reading it I kept thinking that this information needs to be read by people of all ages in hopes of preventing the ailments commonly associated with aging.

I first heard about Ruth Heidrich on a health website & then spent some time googling her. There are interviews on youtube which are interesting, but the book is better at consolidating everything into what you MUST know for your best possible health.

I agree with another reviewer - I'd give this book 10 stars if I could. Thank you Ruth for being an inspiration to us mere mortals who aspire to healthier lifestyles.
