A long life in good health is at the top of most people's wish lists. But do we need anti-aging hormones, chia seeds, or cholesterol-lowering medications for that?

Statistics show quite soberly: medicine causes more harm than success stories. Often, it does not lead to a longer and healthier life. In his new book, doctor and bestselling author Gerd Reuther reveals the most important principles for a long life that no other doctor would tell you.
