Ageing Well

Ageing is a biological process shaped by genetics, lifestyle and environment, and research into how it works has expanded considerably in recent decades. This book brings together current scientific understanding of ageing with practical guidance you can apply to daily life. You will learn about the biological mechanisms behind ageing, including cellular and metabolic changes, and how factors such as nutrition, physical activity, sleep and social connection influence health over time. The book also examines common misconceptions about longevity and presents evidence based strategies for maintaining physical and cognitive function as you grow older. Written and researched with the assistance of artificial intelligence, this book is intended as a clear, accessible introduction to a complex and evolving field, offering you a grounded starting point for thinking about your own long term health and wellbeing.
