Who is Michael F. Roizen

This audio book will teach you a lot about yourself and your body:

You probably think you know a lot about the human body. The reality is that most of us know very little about this miraculous, scientific, and artistic system of anatomy. When it comes to your longevity and quality of life, understanding your internal systems gives you the power, authority, and ability to live a healthier, younger, and better life.

You: The Owner's Manual challenges your preconceived notions about how the human body works and ages, then takes you on a tour through all of the highways, back roads, and landmarks inside of you. You'll learn about all of your blood-pumping, food-digesting, and keys-remembering systems and organs.

Just as important, you'll get the facts and advice you need to keep your body running long and strong. You'll find out how diseases start and how they affect your body -- as well as advice on how to prevent and beat conditions that threaten your quality of life. You: The Owner's Manual gives you an easy, comprehensive, and life-changing how-to plan for fending off the gremlins of aging.

The body is the most fascinating machine ever created, and nobody talks about it in ways that are as illuminating and compelling as Dr. Michael Roizen and Dr. Mehmet Oz do.

In YOU: The Owner's Manual they showed how the human body works in general, and in YOU: On a Diet, they explained how bodies lose weight and stay fit; both books have sold in the millions.

Now, in YOU: Staying Young, the doctors are going to talk about what happens as the body ages. As with their previous titles, Dr. Roizen and Dr. Oz have conducted tireless research and will introduce fascinating and crucial information in an unforgettable way. Most people think of the aging of their bodies the same way they think of the aging of their cars: The older people get, it's inevitable that they're going to break down-it could be in just a few ways or it could be in dozens of ways. Most people hold this notion that once they reach 40 or so, a slow and steady decline of the mind, eyes, ears, joints, arteries, libido, and every other system that affects the quality of life begins to take effect.

However, according to Dr. Roizen and Dr. Oz, that's a mistake. Aging isn't a decline of the body's systems. It's actually very purposeful. The very systems and biological processes that cause people to age are actually designed to help people when they're a little bit younger. So what's the role of those that are part of the aging population? To learn how these systems work, so they can be reprogrammed to work the way they did when they were younger. The listener's goal should be: Die young at any age. That means living a high quality of life (with everything from working joints to working genitals) until the day they die. The doctors' real goal isn't just to make people live longer; it's to allow them to maintain vibrancy throughout their entire lives.

The authors will tantalize listeners with completely novel concepts---they're not just going to tell them that all they have to do is eat well and sleep a lot. They'll explain how the body has evolved to ensure 50 years of high quality life, but those same mechanisms can be counterproductive as people age (it's the concept of biologic necessity, rather than just an accident; a biological process that helps the body cope better when it's young unfortunately does the opposite as people age). They'll do this by using the metaphor of a city to explain how the body works. Just like the body ages, a city does, too-especially if decisions are made that negatively impact the health of the city, or if too many resources and investments are used in the wrong areas and too few resources are used in the right areas. A once vibrant body can deteriorate if it's not taken care of. But if listeners revitalize, maintain, and implement new ideas, they'll keep their bodies at their finest. This allows them to live gracefully and passionately with a fundamentally older infrastructure.

Some examples that are seen throughout YOU: Staying Young: the arteries are like roadways that can be clogged, blocked, or worn down after years of abuse. The brain is like the energy grid that supplies power to the entire city-and can be knocked out here and there if neurological branches fall on power lines (keys, anyone?). The skin, in many ways, is like a city's parks and green space-contributing to the overall sense of beauty and vibrancy. Fat? Yep, landfill. But really, the ultimate goal isn't just to keep listeners from dying. The goal is to make the body top the "best city to live in" list. It's to make it vibrant, hip, to give it lots of resources and manage them well, and, perhaps most of all, to give it the ability to reinvent itself in the face of changing times.

You: Staying Young will be full of signature YOU methods to convey the story, including YOU tests, YOU tips, and visual and verbal metaphors to bring the science alive; it will be heavily illustrated in the same playful, irreverent style as the previous titles. Each section will introduce a theory for why people age, with a quick intro into the science that will be followed by chapters of the health issues that primarily fall under each specific theory of aging. As always, the doctors' passion for spreading awareness and promoting good health will shine through and make this a funny, educational, and very practical program.
