About this title: This is the book that can show us how to turn back our biological clocks - how to put off 70 per cent of the normal problems of aging (weakness, sore joints, bad balance) and eliminate 50 per cent of serious illness and injury. The key to the program is found in Harry's Rules: exercise six days a week; don't eat crap; and, connect and commit to others. There are seven rules all together, based on the latest findings in cell physiology, evolutionary biology, anthropology, and experimental psychology. Dr. Lodge explains how and why they work - and Chris Crowley, who is living proof of their ...

"This is a very interesting book about how we don't have to turn into old, decrepit ladies. The authors advocate exercise 6 days a week, and during the summer...or should I say bike riding weather...I can do that. But come winter, this will be a challenge. What I found most interesting was that our bodies naturally produce something called C-6, which causes inflammation; and exercise produces C-10, which fights that. So not exercising is sure to cause pain. If we want to feel good until we're 90, we HAVE to exercise. OK. I don't like it, but the authors made a pretty convincing case."
"Younger Next Year for Women is written by a doctor (Henry Lodge) and his patient (Chris Crowley). I found this book to be an easy read, very informative and I recommend it to anyone who is worried that the second half of our lives might not be as fun and rich as the first half (and guys - there is a version for men if you want to avoid topics like hot flashes). From this book I learned that the gradual decay that our society associates with aging - osteoporosis, stiffness, arthritis, dementia, etc - is NOT inevitable. As hunter/gatherers, our bodies were not designed to sit behind a desk and eat chocolate chip cookies. We need to exercise - ok here is the hard part - at least 6 times a week. Now this isn't new information, but Dr. Lodge presented enough explanation on how our bodies work, and the consequences of not exercising, to convince me to change my habits. I have been recommending this book to my family and friends - don't delay or decay! Read this book!"
"You will find a cogent argument for 6-days-a-week exercise and the reason to eat small amounts of nutritious food rather than feasting, but I am glad I was reading a library book. I would not want to buy this as a motivational book or a reference book; the older author uses offensive language and refers to overweight women as "piggies." The nutrition and exercise rationales could be explained in fewer chapters."
"This book is written by an M.D. and a friend of his. It is geared to women that want to live strong, fit and sexy until the age of 80 and beyond! They tell you how you can become functionally younger for the next 5 - 10 years and continue to live thereafter with newfound vitality. It is all so believable and written in a very convincing and humourous way. Many times I laughed out loud and tried to read certain paragraphs to my husband who thought I was "off my rocker." The key to being younger next year is found in a lifestyle change that includes daily exercise, attention to proper diet and maintaining emotional connections that should be natural to a woman to implement. Excellent book...how could you go wrong following any or all of these authors' advise."
