  abstract: Groundbreaking book by the Nobel Prize Winner who discovered telomeres, telomerase, and their role in the aging process, and the psychologist who researched specific lifestyle habits to protect them and slow down disease and lengthen life.Have you wondered why some 60-year olds look and feel like 40-year-olds and why some 40-year-olds look and feel like 60-year-olds? While many factors contribute to aging and illness, Nobel Prize-winning Doctor Elizabeth Blackburn discovered biological markers, called telomerase, the enzyme that replenishes telomeres, which protect our DNA Dr. Blackburn discovered that the length and health of one's telomeres provides a biological basis for the long hypothesized mind-body connection. But perhaps more importantly, along with leading health Psychologist, Dr. Elissa Epel, discovered that there are things we can do to improve and lengthen our telomeres to keep us vital and disease-free. This book will help people increase the reader's lifespan and health-span (the number of years during this time that they remain healthy and active), including information on how sleep, exercise, and diet profoundly affect our telomeres, and how chronic stress can eat away at our telomeres. Included are lists of which foods are healthy for our telomeres; how aging begins in utero: mothers who are highly stressed during pregnancy have children with shorter telomeres, and how thinking you are young and vital helps keep you that way!
  table of contents: Telomeres : a pathway to living younger -- How prematurely aging cells make you look, feel, and act old -- The power of long telomeres -- Telomerase, the enzyme that replenishes telomeres -- Your cells are listening to your thoughts -- Unraveling : how stress gets into your cells -- Mind your telomeres : negative thinking, resilient thinking -- When blue turns to gray : depression and anxiety -- Help your body protect its cells -- Training your telomeres : how much exercise is enough? -- Tired telomeres : from exhaustion to restoration -- Telomeres weigh in : a healthy metabolism -- Food and telomeres : eating for optimal cell health -- Outside in: the social world shapes your telomeres -- The places and faces that support our telomeres -- Pregnancy : cellular aging begins in the womb -- Childhood matters for life : how the early years shape telomeres.
