Publisher's Summary

84-year old Physician, Research Scientist and champion cyclist Dr Norman Lazarus wants us to take control of our own futures....

In his first audiobook, The Lazarus Strategy, Norman will inspire listeners to embrace the coming years with equal measures of optimism and determination; celebrating the good news of his research - that staying active is scientifically proven to keep the body young and healthy and stave off age-related diseases. His lifestyle blueprint will show us that the positive changes we can make now are both simple and easily actionable but have the power to help us reap the rewards in later life and enjoy an independent and productive old age.

Written with wit and rigour, this is part how-to/part manifesto drawing on Dr Lazarus' many years in medicine, on the stories of patients and on his own experience and research - to show us that ageing is not a disease, unless we let it become so.

Great read for those in their 40’s and above

I loved every bit of this book. Great narration. Insightful, motivational and realistic. I can only hope for long, enjoyable, healthy, enjoyable years of life like Dr Lazarus.

Insightful if not descriptive nor detailed

Was a superficially informative listen, providing good insight into ageing well. Provided some examples of healthspan and aging, if not going into great detail. a good starter to the topic of healthspan and post 50 aging

A lifestyle book for the ages - all of them.

Everyone should listen to this beautiful book. The wisdom gently imparted by a man who has lived and studied his subject is simple and powerful.
And the fact that the narrator sounds a lot like Sir David Attenborough makes for a very pleasant listen.

The only book on diet and exercise you ever need.

Common sense backed by evidence based research and a lifetime of experience. Funny in an ironic way at times this book clearly sets out what we all know deep down, that eating well and doing moderate exercise is the key to healthy living and as Lazarus explains, healthy ageing too.
