How To Reduce Knee Pain After Sitting

Sitting is bad for the health generally, and doubly so if you have arthritis, as a lack of regular movement can cause joints to “seize up”.

One-Minute Book Review

True Age: Cutting-Edge Research to Help Turn Back the Clock – by Dr. Morgan Levine

Yesterday’s book review (Counterclockwise) was about psychological factors affecting physical aging (progression or reversal thereof); today we have a book about the physiological factors affecting physical aging (progression or reversal thereof).

Dr. Levine is first and foremost a gerontological epigeneticist, and a lot of this book touches on her research in that field and that of her colleagues.

She does also discuss direct environmental factors also though, and—as you might well expect—lifestyle factors.

Regular readers of 10almonds are unlikely to gain anything new in the category of lifestyle matters, but a lot of the other material will be enlightening, especially with regard to the things that might at first glance seem set in stone, but we can in fact modify, and thus “choose our own adventure” when it comes to how the rest of our life plays out, healthwise (so: choose wisely!).

The book is mostly an overview on the (at time of writing: 2022) current state of affairs in the world of longevity research, and although it’s not a “how to” manual, there is plenty in the category of practical takeaways to be gleaned too.

The style is is mostly light pop science, but with a lot of hard science woven in—she is a good explainer, and has clearly made a notable effort to explain complex concepts in simple ways, while still delivering the complex concepts too (i.e. not overly “dumbing down”).

Bottom line: if you’d like to know about what can be done to increase your healthspan and general longevity, this book has a lot of answers!
