The Lucky Years
Bestselling author David Agus introduces us to a bold new future of medicine in which we can take charge of our health like never before, and physicians can fine-tune strategies and weaponry to keep us well.
David Agus explained how to add vital years to your life by understanding the underlying truths of health in his first bestseller, The End of Illness. He expands on that topic in this book, demonstrating why now is the luckiest time to be alive yet, and providing you the keys to the new kingdom of wellbeing.
Medicine is changing at a breakneck pace. In the old world, you followed basic guidelines and physicians treated you according to broad, one-size-fits-all approaches. You'll be able to take full use of the most recent scientific breakthroughs and harness the power of technology to personalize your care in this new golden age. Only those who understand how to access and adapt to these advancements, free of inflated beliefs and lousy treatment, will profit. Imagine being able to get in shape and lose weight without dieting, train your immune system to fight cancer, modify your DNA to prevent a specific fate, eliminate the danger of a heart attack, reverse ageing, and know precisely which medications to take to improve your health with no side effects.
That is the vision of the future that you can begin to create right now. The Lucky Years welcomes you.
