BOOK DESCRIPTION: He tested the program on a group of 1,000 volunteers, who give glowing testimonials about their experiences: "I can see a marked improvement in my mind, spirit, and body"; "Letting go of sugar has been great"; "I lost 20 pounds without dieting!" Null then explains the multipronged antiaging "protocol." First, he advises that you detoxify your body to prevent aging from free-radical damage; then, fortify your immune system with proper nutrition; and lastly, build bone mass (through diet and exercise) to prevent osteoporosis and weakness. This isn't a quick-fix program; it fills nearly 300 pages, with suggestions ranging from sealing off the vents from your garage to your house to drinking a gallon of purified water a day. Null also suggests a low-fat, organic diet, including herbs, nutrients, and other supplements (including acetyl-L-carnitine, phosphatidylserine, zinc, and many in between) that he says may extend life and that helped him run a 50K national championship. The final segment covers "mental gymnastics," including a self-quiz to analyze your value system, levels of anger and stress, and their potential detrimental effects on your health. This is a comprehensive health program, but one that requires a good deal of dedication. Though not a medical doctor, Null (Get Healthy Now) has authored many health books on subjects ranging from allergies to Native American healing. Central to this program is the author's conviction that aging results from the toxic effects of free radicals, molecules that have unpaired electrons that damage the body when they try to steal electrons from other cells. Eliminating or reducing toxins and stress from one's diet and environment can lessen the number of free radicals and thus slow, and even reverse, the aging process. Null advocates an exercise program and an organic vegetarian diet in conjunction with herb and vitamin supplements to detoxify the body. Lacking in both scientific data to support many of his claims and step-by-step directions to implement them, Null's "program," narrated by Robert Deyan, is mostly a description of the possible ways to treat a copious number of medical conditions..
