Book Reviews of Chasing Life: New Discoveries in the Search for Immortality to Help You Age Less Today

Book Review: Good Book for Developing a Healthy Lifestyle
Summary: 5 Stars

I read this book for a book club, and I found it to be quite a good read. It covered several areas in the quest to "chase life" - or rather, to live as long and healthy of a life as possible. Good information from someone we have come to trust, and it is obvious that he did his homework in putting the book together.
