Reset Your Youth Genes

Is the aging process really beyond your control? Or can you look younger while living longer? One anti-aging expert says you can and he's ready to show the world how to do it.

Why do some people age better than others? It's a question plenty of people answer with a shot of Botox.

Dr. Joseph Chang, Ph.D., an anti-aging researcher, says you do not have to buy into the myths about aging. In his new book, The Aging Myth, Dr. Chang says he will empower you to take control of how you age. Chang believes the destiny of your genes is not fixed— in fact, he says you can positively impact the way you age from this day forward.

In The Aging Myth, Chang reveals how new genetic discoveries are challenging traditional anti-aging philosophies and helping people live younger longer. Dr. Chang attempts to dispel what he calls common myths about aging and explains some of the latest groundbreaking research in the field, including:

• Why he believes aging is not an issue of whether or not you have “good genes” – it’s about how your genes function.
• How new science may someday allow us to “die healthy” and maintain a youthful quality of life until our last living day.
• Why some people look much younger than their actual age would suggest.

“I was troubled when my father passed away after a long time of suffering from chronic illness and deterioration,” said Dr. Chang. “I believe there has to be a way to help people die healthy so that while they are alive, they are truly living. I believe that most people are born with good genes, but it’s a matter of how these genes are expressed that determines how well we age.”

The information contained in this book is said to unlock the mysteries of aging. Dr. Chang explains how, using gene expression science to decode aging processes, he and collaborators have been able to identify, target, and reset important aging-related genes to a more youthful state and positively influence the way we age. He presents evidence and steps for you and everyone in your family to begin living younger, longer.

“It has been said that as much as people fear death, they fear the ravages of aging even more,” explains Dr. Chang. “The fact is, everyone eventually dies, but some are still youthful when they die.”

The Aging Myth from Aylesbury Publishing is now available in major bookstores or online.
