The Lucky Years: How to Thrive in the Brave New World of Health

Bestselling author David Agus unveils the brave new world of medicine, one in which we can take control of our health like never before and doctors can fine-tune strategies and weapons to prevent illness.

In his first bestseller, The End of Illness, David Agus revealed how to add vibrant years to your life by knowing the real facts of health. In this book, he builds on that theme by showing why this is the luckiest time yet to be alive, giving you the keys to the new kingdom of wellness.

Medicine is undergoing rapid change. In the old world, you followed general principles and doctors treated you based on broad, one-size-fits all solutions. In this new golden age, you’ll be able to take full advantage of the latest scientific findings and leverage the power of technology to customize your care. Only those who know how to access and adapt to these breakthroughs—without being distracted by hyped ideas and bad medicine—will benefit. Imagine being able to get fit and lose weight without dieting, train your immune system to fight cancer, edit your DNA to avoid a certain fate, erase the risk of a heart attack, reverse aging, and know exactly which drugs to take to optimize health with zero side effects.

That’s the picture of the future that you can enter starting today. Welcome to The Lucky Years.

Tipperary’s Noel McGrath


The 24-year-old needed surgery and a bout of chemotherapy, but battled back to make an emotional return for Tipperary in the All-Ireland semi-final with Galway, just four months later.


McGrath was given a standing ovation when he appeared as a second-half substitute.


After overcoming Testicular cancer, McGrath has become an Ambassador for the Movember foundation, which encourages men to be more open about Men’s Health issues, and fundraisers for research.


In a video addressing young men about the issue, McGrath admits he did nothing for two or three weeks after developing a lump on his testicle. But once he went to his doctor he got tremendous support, and he stresses the importance of early detection and treatment.
