Codes of Longevity: Learn from 20+ of Today's Leading Health Experts How to Unlock Your Potential to Look, Feel and Live Life Optimized to 120 and Beyond

I’m in my mid-sixties and have a career in academic research and also have found good health via daily Qi Gong as well as use of complementary medicine. Too often I’ve sensed a disconnect between the careful standards for information in the academic world and the books on subjects that are of interest to general readers in alternative health areas. Well, I am very very happy to find that Codes of Longevity is not only readable and encouraging, but also really well documented. Because of my engagement as a patient with Traditional Chinese Medicine, I was immediately drawn to the chapter, “Ancient Wisdom, Modern Practice: Learning from the Past to Design our Future,” by Dr. Ashley Beckman. The author provides references to recent scientific studies as well as classics of TCM to support the wise use of these techniques for extending health into old age. She describes the substance and use of ginseng, reishi, cordyceps, and green tea and offers “longevity tips” for each. Most other chapters are up to this standard of information and utility. I do wish the book had a bibliography of the references in the book itself, but these are planned to be provided via signing up at a link from the book's website. Dr. Grill-Peterson assembled a worthy group of experts to write these chapters. I wish she’d described herself as “About the Editor/Author” rather than “About the Author,” [editing is quite a significant task] and truly, that’s all I'd change. I’m excited to digest the wisdom in all of this book!

One of my own (and favorite)  health care professionals wrote a section of this book, so I started with my doctor's contribution and have loved reading advice from the other experienced contributors.  This book is like a field guide for navigating the landscape of "new technologies and advanced research" that is currently being applied to health and health optimization fields.  I love that this book motivates you to consider what to purposefully include in building your own personalized health optimization plan.  I feel the information provided in this book helps explain more of the pieces of the puzzle that I heard or read about in passing, but did not know how to integrate into my own daily routine.  I love being able to add new tools --and I feel that hearing from these experts helps inform me in creating my own optimal setting for whole system health.

Codes of Longevity is a timely read, full of information that will change the way you live your life. Dr. Grill-Peterson brought together the best of the best in health and wellness to guide us to live a long and prosperous life.As a wellness practitioner, who is up to date on health issues, this book takes the cake for 2020—the breakthrough content from so many competent professionals bridges the uncertainty of what it means to live a long, vibrant life in these challenging times. From ancient wisdom to modern-day cures, from epigenetics to breathing techniques, anyone reading this book will indeed find golden nuggets to improve their overall physical and mental wellbeing. I recommend this jewel to my friends, clients, and you.

This BOOK!!!This is the next part of my life expansion. There is SO MUCH to explore here. I am 49 and I am in the best shape of my life. Turning back the clock and feeling more energized then ever. This book is a reinforcement that I am on track and that there is so much more that I can do. This book has opened me up to a plethora of things that I had no idea about... and I am in the business of helping entrepreneurs to optimize their bodies. This book is an asset to me and EVERYONE I contract with. Thanks for such an amazing GEM! I am buying copies for all of my clients!

Full of insightful information and advice on making positive changes to the health of both your mind and body. I look forward to a 2nd reading to absorb even more it.If you are starting to feel the the affects of life, feeling drained of energy and wanting to feel like you did years ago, consider read this book and start taking steps to apply the advice to your own lifestyle.

One of the opening lines in the book is "Aging is not a disease, but a process that with the right tools you can stop, slow down and even reverse." This sentence is the beginning of a paradigm shift. Often, when society talks about extending lifespan and healthspan, it's full of wishes and hopes—but little substance. This book is the complete opposite.Not only will you get an inside look at technologies, modalities, and most importantly ways of thinking to shift your mindset—you're going to get actionable insights that can be put into place immediately to start your journey to improving your healthspan, lifespan, and wellspan.

Dr. Melissa Petersen has managed to collect the latest research from the most "in the know" in the field. With the rapidly evolving information constantly coming forth, it really helps to have someone gather it and help to make sense of it all. As a novice, the collection of experts covering the diverse range of topics gave me a much better grasp of the concepts, some older and established but now making better sense (Leann Spofford's "Nature and It's Healing Power") and some very new (Dr. Kamperveen's "Preconceive Longevity", which, as a midwife, I found fascinating!).

I am steadfast in my commitment to live to be 100 in good health, active and laughing. I am keenly interested in books like Codes of Longevity and the wisdom and practical tips provided to assist me in achieving my longetivity goal. I was particularly struck by Terry Clark’s chapter on flow. I like the correlation to self-actualization and being 500% more productive; the inverse connection between brain flow and obesity, and how critical sleep is. All of this is significant to the impact I intend to have on the world. Great read!

I love this book! Our brains have been wired that genetics are our destiny but it is far from the case. Read this book, it will change (and maybe even lengthen) your life!

Amazing book full of insights on the future of medicine and what you must know about living a longer healthier life!
