    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Geriatrics, Lifestyle Medicine and Healthy Aging: A Practical Guide is a book for those interested in promoting healthy aging through lifestyle approaches. The book is divided into three sections covering various aspects of lifestyle medicine for older individuals including general concepts of lifestyle medicine practices; lifestyle “pillars” as applied to older adults; and a broad range of target conditions of importance to older adults, and how a lifestyle medicine approach may impact them. Readers gain an understanding of how lifestyle medicine and geriatrics can work together to provide a holistic approach that fosters healthy aging throughout life.


    Features



    • Research-supported analysis of the relevance of lifestyle medicine in geriatric populations

    • Evidence-based discussion of conditions that impact quality of life in older adults, including sarcopenia, incontinence, bone health, polypharmacy and falls, and how lifestyle medicine can prevent and treat such conditions

    • Edited by a leading expert in the fields of healthy aging and lifestyle medicine in older adults

    As part of the Lifestyle Medicine Series edited by Dr. James M. Rippe, this book is useful to geriatric medicine clinicians who would like to increase the tools in their practice of caring for older adults; lifestyle medicine clinicians who want to understand how to effectively use lifestyle pillars to care for older adults; and anyone who is interested in their own, or a loved one’s, healthy aging.
