The official summary of Roger Landry's Live Long, Die Short: A Guide to Authentic Health and Successful Aging

This complete - and authorized - summary distills the insights from Roger Landry's book Live Long, Die Short.

Over a decade ago, a landmark 10-year study by the MacArthur Foundation shattered the stereotypes of aging as a process of slow, genetically determined decline. Researchers found that that 70 percent of physical aging -and about 50 percent of mental aging - is determined by the choices we make every day. That means that if we optimize our lifestyles, we can live longer and "die shorter": that is, compress the decline period into the very end of a fulfilling, active old age.

Roger Landry, M.D., M.P.H., and his colleagues have spent years bringing these findings to life with their Masterpiece Living program. In his book, Dr. Landry shared the incredible story of that program and lays out a path for anyone, at any point in life, who wants to age in a better way.
