Valter Longo, renowned for his expertise in gerontology, emphasizes a holistic approach to longevity, focusing on extending health span rather than just lifespan through diet and lifestyle.
He observes a troubling trend among Italian youth, labeling their changing dietary habits the 'poisonous five P’s', leading to a risk of living long but unhealthy lives.
Longo advocates for a return to the original Mediterranean diet, highlighting its components of plant-based foods and nuts, which promote vitality and longevity.
His promotion of a fasting-mimicking diet allows for food intake constriction, seeking to emulate the benefits of fasting without total food deprivation, a revolutionary concept in longevity.
