The Okinawa Program by Bradley J Willcox

"If Americans lived more like the Okinawans, 80 percent of the nation's coronary care units, one-third of the cancer wards, and a lot of the nursing homes would be shut down." --From The Okinawa Program

The Okinawa Program, authored by a team of internationally renowned experts, is based on the landmark scientifically documented twenty-five-year Okinawa Centenarian Study, a Japanese Ministry of health-sponsored study. This breakthrough book reveals the diet, exercise, and lifestyle practices that make the Okinawans the healthiest and longest-lived population in the world. With an easy-to-follow Four-Week Turnaround Plan, nearly one hundred fast, delicious recipes, and a moderate exercise plan, The Okinawa Program can dramatically increase your chances for a long, healthy life

Makoto Suzuki graduated from Yamagata University in 1974 and Tohoku University in 1981 with a doctorate in engineering. He worked for eleven years in the Mechanical Engineering Laboratory (MEL/AIST) after finishing his studies, then for five years at the National Institute for Advanced Interdisciplinary Research (NAIR/AIST). In 1996, he became a professor at Tohoku University after leaving NAIR. In 2003, he identified hyper-mobile water (HMW) in the hydration layer of actin filaments, one of the contractile muscle proteins, using his upgraded high-precision dielectric spectroscopic technology. Water Plays a Major Part in ATP Energy Transfer (2008-2012) was an interdisciplinary project focused on the energetics of protein machines that he organized as an Innovative Scientific Research Area.
