This health and wellness book, The Longevity Diet, explores how what we eat can significantly impact both the length and quality of our lives. Backed by 25 years of global research on aging, nutrition, and disease, this program offers a straightforward approach to achieving a long, healthy life through diet. Central to this health and wellness book is a combination of a daily pescatarian eating plan and an innovative, science-based fasting-mimicking diet (FMD), designed to be followed just 3-4 times a year. Unlike traditional fasting, the FMD enables you to gain the health benefits of a restrictive diet without the typical downsides, such as low energy or sleep issues.

Developed by Valter Longo, director of the Longevity Institute at USC and the Program on Longevity and Cancer at IFOM in Milan, the FMD has been shown to activate stem cells, promoting regeneration across multiple organs and significantly lowering risks of diabetes, cancer, Alzheimer’s, and heart disease. With a pescatarian focus, low in proteins and sugars but rich in healthy fats and plant-based foods, The Longevity Diet is scientifically proven to:

• Reduce abdominal fat and help with weight loss
• Extend healthy lifespan with easy daily dietary adjustments
• Prevent age-related muscle and bone loss
• Build resilience against diabetes, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's, and cancer

Longo’s plan, incorporating the FMD just four times a year for five days each, makes this health and wellness book easy to integrate into daily life. With 30 recipes based on Longo’s five pillars of longevity, The Longevity Diet provides a practical and powerful guide to living a longer, healthier, and more vibrant life.
