WASHINGTON, Nov. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Michael Greger, M.D., FACLM, the internationally-renowned nutrition expert, physician, and founder of NutritionFacts.org, has written a revised and updated version of his New York Times bestselling book, How Not to Die. This 10^th anniversary edition is available for preorder now on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Bookshop and will be out on December 9, 2025.

Most doctors are good at treating acute illnesses, but bad at preventing chronic disease. The 15 leading causes of death claim the lives of 1.6 million Americans every year, but this needn't be the case. Dr. Greger lays out the whys and hows of our most common diseases and, with his trademark humor, presents the indisputable, peer-reviewed, scientific evidence to support the best foods to eat (and to avoid) and outlines which lifestyle changes to make to live longer and more healthfully.

In addition to tragic updates to public health statistics, this special 10^th anniversary edition includes a new opening Author's Note and all the recent major advances in knowledge, including Dr. Dean Ornish's attempts at Alzheimer's reversal. There is new information on such topics as COVID-19 and pandemic prevention, cannabis, air pollution, forest bathing, acid blockers, companion animals, depression and food, the risks and benefits of mammograms and prostate cancer screening, and essential tremor. This revised and updated edition also includes cooking information on whole grains and legumes, as well as Dr. Greger's signature Daily Dozen checklist of the healthiest foods.

Readers of the original How Not Die, as well as those discovering it for the first time, will find this special 10^th anniversary edition informative and inspiring.
