One-Minute Book Review
Growing Better Not Older: How to biologically optimize your body, improve your appearance, and crush your goals by targeting visceral fat â by Dr. Sean OâMara
Of course we will, all being well, continue to progress through time and grow chronologically older, but biological age in all its facets can certainly be modified (in either direction!), and thatâs what this book is about.
Dr. OâMara sets out his 10 principles of health optimization, and then explains, chapter by chapter, how to go about each of these.
The book is strong on advice, and light to non-existent on justification. Now, this is not necessarily a big problem as his advice is sound and is consistent with good up-to-date science (indeed, weâve written on all 10 topics at 10almonds, and have given similar recommendations in each case), but he tends not to take up the time to actually show where the advice came from. Which is odd really, as in a book rather than a newsletter, one can take as much time/space as one wants to do that. As such, no bibliography. There is a resource section, though itâs in large part an upsell effort for the authorâs subscribable programs.
Bottom line: good advice, minimal background information or sourcing, opportunity to learn moreâalbeit for a price.
