Excerpt

In this book I strive to present a balanced point of view -- an in-depth but easy-to-understand look at this remarkable biochemical -- so that health-conscious individuals can take advantage of the breatkthrough without hurting themselves. In addition, I hope that it will serve as a guide to clinicians beset by patients looking for a "fountain of youth" pill.

It's important to understand that there is no fountain of youth pill but for twenty-five years, I have been telling my students and clients that there is a fountain of youth lifestyle. After all, the human body is designed to last about 120 years, and with proper care they can all be vibrantly healthy years. What DHEA provides is the missing link in your longevity program. It gives you a better-than-fighting chance against the diseases that cause more than 75 percent of premature deaths.
