Summary:
Cameron Diaz follows up her Body Book with a personal, practical, and authoritative guide that examines the art and science of growing older and offers concrete steps women can take to create abundant health and resilience as they age. A topic that that for too long has been taboo in our society: the aging female body. The latest scientific research on how and why we age, and what history, biology, neuroscience, and the women's health movement can teach us about maintaining optimal health as we transition from our thirties to midlife. How growing older impacts various bodily systems and differences in the way aging effects men and women; the latest science on telomeres and slowing the rate of cognitive decline, how meditation heals us and why love, friendship, and laughter matter for health. A holistic look at how the female body ages and what we can all do to age better. Born in San Diego, California, Cameron DÔiaz began modeling at age 16 and appeared in ad campaigns for Calvin Klein and Coca-Cola. She rose to stardom with roles in The Mask (1994), My Best Friend's Wedding (1997) and There's Something About Mary (1998).
