In this groundbreaking book, a visionary plastic surgeon and anti-aging pioneer presents a radical new theory on how people age, suggesting that the body is not irreversibly programmed by a finite number of cell divisions to age and die, but rather is built for longevity and self-repair.
Throughout life, DNA reproduces and replaces itself continually. In optimal conditions, the copies are perfect, but as environment, diet and stress begin to take their toll, so the DNA becomes damaged and this leads to aging and disease.
