I’ve Written a Book: Still Walking at 100

Some news from behind this site: I’ve written a book.

Still Walking at 100: How Japan’s Elders Stay Steady on Their Feet gathers everything this site stands for into one place—the daily habits behind the world’s longest lives, explained plainly and backed entirely by peer-reviewed research and official statistics.

I spent ten years working in Japanese elder care, and the question that never left me was why some people are still walking—still cooking, still laughing, still themselves—at 90 and beyond, while others lose those years. The answer, it turns out, isn’t genetics. It’s daily life: how we eat, move, sleep, connect, and plan. The book walks through each of these, using Japan as the working example and translating everything into ingredients and opportunities you can find anywhere.
