Unlock Your Longevity with the I-Pax Diet

In recent decades, while life expectancy has risen, quality of life has not always kept pace. Many people regularly use painkillers to manage daily discomforts, viewing aging as synonymous with increased medication, assistance, and dependency. However, science offers a more empowering perspective. Initiating healthy habits early is ideal for promoting longevity, yet it's never too late to starteven beyond ninety!

In this book, Dr. Andrea Grieco combines his deep knowledge of biology, cutting-edge research, and extensive clinical experience to guide readers on a journey towards mastering their longevity. He outlines a practical and thoughtful plan to help individuals become the architects of their own health and well-being, ensuring a fulfilling life at any age.

In this book, we discover how we are victims of what Dr. Grieco refers to as "glucose tyranny." Naturally, glucose itself, an essential component of our cellular physiology, is not the tyrant. Rather, the tyranny arises from its consumption in excessively high quantities, which forces our bodies into a constant struggle to manage hyperglycemia. We have transformed glucose into our number one enemy, the sweet killer of our health and, consequently, our longevity.

The glucose-insulin relationship is vital for life. However, as we will explore throughout this book, we have transformed it into a primary threat to our well-being, health, and longevity.

Dr. Andrea Grieco presents an innovative approach to Nutrition Science that goes beyond typical dietary dos and don'ts. Instead of providing another list of specific foods with prescribed amounts, Dr. Grieco introduces the "I-Pax diet." Rooted in the etymological meaning of the Greek word "diaita," which translates to "lifestyle," this diet emphasizes living in harmony with our biology and physiology. "I-PAX," short for "Insulin Pax," refers to a metabolic state achieved through precise nutritional choices that prevent the pancreas from being continuously stimulated to produce insulin. We will discover together that health improves as we maintain insulin at baseline levels, self-managed by the body. In other words, nutrition tending toward Insulin Pax means a condition in which the level of insulin in the blood is autoregulated by the body and not forced by what we put on our plates.

Andrea Grieco is a physician and psychotherapist specializing in neurology and nephrology from the University of Florence. He further expanded his expertise in natural medicine and biotechnology at the University of Milan.

As one of Europe's leading experts in treating fibromyalgia and chronic inflammation, he is an international pioneer in studying the extracellular matrix (ECM) and a key figure in functional medicine. This medical approach focuses on a detailed understanding of each patient's genetic, biochemical, and physiological factors to address the root causes of disease and promote optimal wellness.

An active scientific communicator on the web and author of numerous bestsellers on health, nutrition, and wellness, Grieco has published Living Alkaline, Living Happy and Long Covid: How to Restore Your Health and Your Well-being in English.
