Eat your ice cream : six simple rules for a long and healthy life / Ezekiel J. Emanuel, MD, PhD.

6 simple rules for a long and healthy life (portion title)
Six simple rules for a long and healthy life (portion title)
Emanuel, Ezekiel J., 1957- (author.).

Summary:

"Every day brings a torrent of articles, videos, and podcasts about health and longevity. The 'Wellness Industrial Complex' offers conflicting advice and promises us more time to enjoy in the future but it sure is demanding a lot of time right now. In 'Eat Your Ice Cream,' renowned health expert Dr. Ezekiel J. Emanuel argues that life is not a competition to live the longest, and that 'wellness' shouldn't be difficult; it should be an invisible part of one's lifestyle that yields maximum health benefits with the least work. Dr. Emanuel cuts through the noise with wit and good humor, giving readers just what they need: simple, high-impact, evidence-based guidelines to issues such as food and drink, exercise, sleep, mental acuity, and social engagement. Pairing common sense with uncommon wisdom based on his decades of expertise and experience, Dr. Emanuel helps readers decide which lifestyle changes are worth making and how to best implement them." -- Provided by publisher.
