While the total hormone supplementation/replacement therapy program has been shown to reverse the biological age of up to 27 years, ALL the so-called exercise gurus didn’t even make it to 100 years. Most did not even make it to the age of 80, and some died in their 50s and 60s. Let’s look at several of these well-known and charismatic figures, examining the difference between the programs they espoused and promoted and the program described throughout this book.

Consider famed fitness guru Jack LaLanne, the longest-lived of all gurus. No one could exercise more or eat healthier every day than him. And yet, he died in 2011 at the age of 96, after a bout with a simple case of influenza that led to pneumonia (reported cause of death). His death indicated that his immune system (white blood cells and lymphocytes, etc.) could not and did not effectively fight the infection. He was 24 years away from reaching the prime of his life, but he didn’t. This means that his apparent physical state over the decades was insufficient to reverse his biological age, maintain true good health and general well-being, and reach God’s promised age of 120 years.

Many other famous fitness, diet, and exercise advocates had even shorter lifespans than LaLanne’s, indicating that their programs lacked the essential scientific component of longevity: optimal hormone levels. (The total hormone supplementation/replacement therapy program, as described throughout this book, provides the medical technology and methodology necessary to achieve this ideal balance.)

Dr. Robert Atkins, creator of the famous Atkins diet, basically gave the go-ahead for eating a diet based on fat and protein, with carbohydrates (apart from a limited amount of certain fruits and vegetables) severely restricted. In essence, Atkins condemned carbohydrates to the “dietary hall of shame.” After his death in 2003 at the age of 72, it was revealed that Atkins himself had a history of serious heart problems, including myocardial infarction (heart attack), congestive heart failure, and hypertension. Some have suggested that these conditions led to his death, which was caused immediately by a fall onto the ice. Others have argued that his heart attack was caused by a chronic infection (low immunity). (Robert Atkins’ life span was 48 years shorter than God’s promised 120 years, indicating that his apparent physical condition was insufficient to reverse his biological age and maintain true and lasting good health.) .

Adelle Davis was one of the best-known early nutritionists in this country, holding that almost any disease could be prevented through proper diet and nutrition. In particular, she stressed the importance of eating unprocessed foods, avoiding saturated and trans fats and excess sugar, and taking vitamin supplements to guard against deficiencies. She was also a proponent of exercise. Her recommendations have stood as standard nutrition/fitness guidelines even as of this writing, and yet Ella Davis succumbed to cancer in 1974 at the age of 70. (Adelle Davis’ life expectancy was 50 years shorter than the 120 years promised by God, indicating that her physical fitness is insufficient to reverse her biological age and maintain true and lasting good health.)

Bob Delmonteque, known to fans and followers as “Doctor Bob,” was a bodybuilder and fitness trainer popular with Hollywood stars and celebrities. He maintained his own chiseled physique throughout his life, dying in 2011 at the age of 85. (Bob Delmonteque’s life was 35 years shorter than God’s promised 120 years, indicating that his apparent physical condition was insufficient to reverse his biological age and maintain true and lasting good health.)

James (Jimmy) Fixx appeared to be a fitness model in the 1970s. Often credited with starting the running craze in America, Fixx was a strong advocate of running and jogging to stay in shape and achieve better health. He himself ran 10 miles a day, in addition to other vigorous exercise. Friends described him as in good physical condition. However, he suffered a fatal heart attack in 1984 at the age of 52 while jogging near his Vermont home. (James Fixx’s life span was 68 years shorter than the 120 years promised by God, indicating that his apparent physical condition was insufficient to reverse his biological age and maintain true and lasting good health.) .

Robert Kowalski was another health guru and he focused on the dangers of high cholesterol. His new 8-week cholesterol cure has been a New York Times bestseller for 115 weeks. Although “everyone” could have read his books, he died at the age of 65 (in 2007). The cause of death was a pulmonary embolism; keep in mind that he was 35 when he had his first heart attack and bypass surgery. (Robert Kowalski’s life span was 55 years shorter than God’s promised 120 years, indicating that his apparent physical condition was insufficient to reverse his biological age and maintain true and lasting good health.) .

Dr. Michel Montignac developed the famous Montignac Diet to help himself lose weight. He was renowned both in his native France and throughout the world. His research focused on the glycemic index and the distinction between good and bad carbohydrates. (For example, whole grains were “good”; refined white flour was “bad.”) Montignac’s book, Eat Yourself Slim, sold 17 million copies. His theories were the inspiration behind the South Beach Diet. In 2010, Montignac died of prostate cancer at the age of 66. (By the way, this proves that a low-glycemic diet cannot prevent cancer, itself a sign of low immunity.) (Michel Montignac’s life was 54 years shorter than God’s – 120 years, indicating that his apparent physical condition was insufficient to reverse his biological age and maintain the promised true and enduring good health.)

Nathan Pritikin was another well-known health guru. (His Pritikin diet and exercise program, co-authored with science writer Patrick M. McGrady, Jr., was quite popular, as were his health centers.) An inventor with a passion for nutrition and exercise, Pritikin was one of the first to promote the connection between diet and heart disease. Although his diet and exercise regimens allowed him to achieve excellent cardiovascular health, they were not enough to combat the leukemia that later ravaged his body. He committed suicide in the hospital bed at the age of 69 (in 1985). Some said that the cancer could have established itself in his body before he formulated his diet and exercise program. That could be true; however, he would only provide the inadequacy of his programs against the achievement of longevity, since cancer remains one of the most common causes of death! (Nathan Pritikin’s life span was 51 years shorter than God’s promised 120 years, indicating that his apparent physical condition was insufficient to reverse his biological age and maintain true and lasting good health.) .

Dr. Roy Lee Walford, a pioneer in the field of caloric restriction, was credited with discovering that laboratory mice nearly doubled their lifespans when fed a diet that restricted their caloric intake by 50 percent. . However, he himself died at the age of 79 (in 2004). The cause of death was respiratory failure as a complication of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease), an autoimmune disorder. It is interesting and important to note that immune system impairment has long been associated with calorie-restricted diets. (Roy Lee Walford’s life span was 41 years shorter than God’s promised 120 years, indicating that his apparent physical condition was insufficient to reverse his biological age and maintain true and lasting good health. ).

Suffice it to say that advocating fitness through exercise, good diet/nutrition, and even caloric restriction did not save any of these health experts from dying before the age of 100. None of them reached the age promised by God of 120 years. reason for this? In my professional medical opinion, it is simply that all of them did not check their telomere length and regularly maintain their hormone levels.
