Cameron Diaz wrote The Body Book to help educate young women about how their bodies function, empowering them to make better-informed choices about their health and encouraging them to look beyond the latest health trends to understand their bodies at the cellular level. She interviewed doctors, scientists, nutritionists, and a host of other experts, and shared what she’d learned—and what she wished she’d known twenty years earlier. As our cells continually divide and copy their genetic information, the risk of imperfect copying increases. More cellular divisions with age provide more opportunities for errors to occur. Those errors can result in mutations that allow cancerous cells to develop and flourish." (p 101) Muscles can still get stronger as we age...Building muscle is the best way to offset one of the other losses that comes with age: bone loss." (pp. 143 - 144) I have to say, once again I was pleasantly surprised by a Cameron Diaz book. Obviously she didn't write and research this entirely herself, but she did still put in a lot of effort. The tone is very conversational and accessible. Most importantly for this particular book is that Diaz has found a true niche, which is rare in this age of the internet.

The Blue Zones, Second Edition: 9 Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who’ve Lived the Longest by Dan Buettner: A sensation when the research first came out in National Geographic in 2005, and the subject of dozens of fad diets and followup research studies (including, arguably, James Clement’s Supercentenarian Research Study mentioned above), the Blue Zones hypothesis has since come under some criticism but is nonetheless interesting.
