Fantastic Voyage: Live Long Enough to Live Forever
Fantastic Voyage provides a great overview of the latest research on nutrition. It has a decidedly proactive approach as it advocates what it calls “aggressive supplementation”. Kurzweil admits to going so far as taking hundreds of pills a day, which sounds potentially dangerous. However, there is still a lot of solid advice here that doesn’t require risky moves. There are also many interesting and sometimes humorous boxes containing Kurzweil’s predictions about the future. Many of them talk about how nanobots are soon going to replace all of our organs and make us immortal. While some readers may enjoy these boxes, they can also be safely ignored without missing any of the down-to-earth nutrition information. Details of research studies are generally given little attention in the text, making Fantastic Voyage less convincing, but more readable than the thorough “Good Calories Bad Calories”.
