Dr. Moreno believes that you are only as young as your most unhealthy body part. As a result, the book is organized by body systems: respiratory, cardiovascular, skeletal, endocrine, lymphatic, sensory, circulatory, immune, digestive, excretory, muscular, nervous, urinary, reproductive, and integumentary (skin). Each chapter gives an action plan for improving the health and longevity of that particular system, maintaining its highest functionality and avoiding chronic illness, thus lowering your true age.
