Nutrition for a Long Life
A long life is built gradually from early childhood. But regardless of ones age, it is never too late.

The answer, according to Dominique Lanzmann-Petithory, is by eating healthily and following some basic health rules. This practical manual will allow each reader to find and maintain his or her maximum energy and, above all, to learn the arts of eating and living. Dominique Lanzmann-Petithory is a physician.

This is a precious record of an era, as well as of a profession that is currently undergoing major changes in France.
