The Age Code The New Science of Food and How It Can Save Us

The Age Code: The New Science of Food and How It Can Save Us explores how diet influences biological ageing, disease risk, and long-term health. Science journalist David Cox examines the cellular balance between damage and repair, looking at how sugar, excess calories, inflammation, and poor gut health may accelerate ageing. He also investigates emerging research on micronutrients, omega-3 fatty acids, biological-age testing, and the possibility of measuring the age of individual organs. Combining expert interviews with practical food insights, the book explains what modern nutrition science may reveal about living longer and ageing more healthily.
