Unlock the secrets of your telomeres for a longer, healthier life.
They’re like the plastic tips of your shoelaces that keep them from fraying. But they’re at the ends of your DNA and they keep you from disease and dying too young.
The discovery of telomeres was one of the true miracle breakthroughs in contemporary medicine. Nobel-winning scientist Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn’s research has opened a world of promise when it comes to living longer and healthier. Today, we have the know-how to slow the disintegration process to beat our biological clock and prevent disease.
Noted personalized medicine physician, Dr. Elaine Chin, tells you how to use these new lifelines to extend your own by partnering with healthcare professionals to create a road map for maximizing your peak health. In this first-ever handbook containing comprehensive information on diet, the potential of supplements, hormone-replacement therapy, sleep patterns and mental health, Lifelines will show you how to use our knowledge of telomere science to change your life for the better. Dr. Chin offers practical and realistic ways to optimize the length of your telomere to give you an advantage in what really counts most in life – how long and how well you will live.
