Působivá publikace, která naučí každou ženu, jak být přesně tak mladá, jak se cítí uvnitř Autoři vás provedou důležitým obdobím zralého života a naučí vás, jak důstojně a zdravě stárnout. Že to vůbec nemusí být tak, jak se obáváte, a na nějaké infarkty, rakovinu, osteoporózu, Alzheimera nebo další strašáky moderní doby vůbec nemusí dojít, je z jejich podání víc než jasné. Stačí cvičit, přestat se nesmyslně stravovat, zachovat si optimizmus, a pokud možno nepřestat pracovat a nezačít se stranit lidí. Pak nejenže nebudete stárnout, ale začnete se dokonce cítit a vypadat mladší! A tak až do devadesáti nebo dokonce do věku ještě vyššího můžete být ztělesněným rčením "ve zdravém těle zdravý duch". Věřte nebo ne, ale až budete tuto knihu číst, okamžitě začnete plánovat, jak vyrazíte do tělocvičny a zahodíte ty čtyři pytlíky bramborových čipsů, které máte ve špajzu, a místo nich nakoupíte ovoce a zeleninu. Kniha je velmi vtipně napsaná, komentáře lékaře jsou i pro laika lehce srozumitelné (jak se ostatně na pokračování knihy Příští rok o rok mladší sluší). Zasvěceně vás provede menopauzou a dokáže vám, že v další třetině života můžete být tak mladé, jak se cítíte uvnitř. A tak zahoďte papuče, vypněte televizi a hurá do přírody a fitcentra.
