Book Summary

Lifespan presents scientist David A. Sinclair’s groundbreaking claim that aging is not an inevitable decline but a condition that can be slowed—and potentially reversed—by addressing what he calls the “information theory of aging.” According to Sinclair, aging occurs because the body’s cells gradually lose their ability to read and use genetic information correctly, leading to damage, disease, and physical deterioration. The book explores scientific advances showing how activating longevity pathways—such as sirtuins, NAD boosters, and calorie restriction mimetics—can restore cellular function and extend healthy lifespan in animals, with promising implications for humans. Sinclair also discusses lifestyle practices that support longevity, including fasting, cold exposure, exercise, plant-rich diets, and reducing stress. Blending cutting-edge genetics, real experiments, and future possibilities, Lifespan argues that aging should be treated as a disease—and that humanity may be on the brink of a revolution where people live longer, healthier lives.
