Perhaps an alternative title should have been "Age Healthier, Live Happier, and Enjoy Life to the Utmost" as that is what he conveys in this book. Thank you, Dr. Birken, for finally taking us down this path of focusing on the patient and not what we were taught conventionally.-Neal Rouzier, MD

- eliminate brain fog, fatigue, and insomnia;
- stop weight gain;
