There are three ages for the human body ― chronological, biological, and psychological. The calculation for the first is based on the date of birth, the second on health conditions, and the third on how old we feel. Everyone knows that by age 50, one should be doing some 'retirement planning ― and that's just not about protecting finances; it's also about protecting one's health. While the first cannot be controlled, fitness can be taken care of by eating well, exercising, and sporting a cheerful attitude. A positive attitude and optimistic thinking can buttress the third aspect, that is, psychological. 
 
This book also speaks of how one doesn't have to train for a marathon or eat an exotic macrobiotic diet to stay healthy. Whether one wants to reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke or boost stamina and staying power, this book charts out some simple steps and strategies to make a lasting difference.
