Make your body healthy, Yes U Can ! May 14, 2008 I am a regular person who doesn't know all the ins and outs of medical health. This book "Chasing Life" opened up many topics that i was unaware of but wanted to know. I am 48 and still think of my self as being young. But reality is that our physical body is not. Therefore, i believe a book like this is most timely. Most important for me is Mr. Gupta mentioning the different studies behind the supplements or sciences, thus providing proof about them. Now i have more confidence in the reputation of each and can research further on my own. Which i did and now developed my own health regimen each day, be it doing exercise or taking multivitamins. I also recommend the 7 Pillars of Health by Colbert, that too is an excellent book. I wrote this review to save others time, our most precious commodity, and help in extending life as Mr. Gcupta aims to do for all of us who read his book.

In reading this book I did not learn anything other than what one finds usually in newspaper articles covering general health subjects. I felt the title of the book promised much more than the actual contents delivered.
Health is wealth ! April 5, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Seems like Dr Sanjay Gupta did a lot of research to write this book. I read couple of chapter and I already feel like I am slowing my aging process by eating till 80% full, eating big breakfast and drinking antioxidant rich drinks and fruits.

This Kurzweil-wannabe author has written a drudge that's filled with misleadingly fudged "facts." Would give negative or zero stars if allowed.
My review November 30, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an excellent book. Unlike other books of this type which ask readers to make drastic changes to their lifestyle thereby making the reading a scary experience, this book tells the reader to make very subtle changes in day to day life and still make a huge difference and of course, in an easy to understand language.
