'The perfect balance of scientific clarity and genuine care' - Sarah Di Lorenzo

What if the second half of your life could be the healthiest, most vibrant chapter yet?

The Women's Longevity Handbook is a powerful, science-based guide to help every Australian woman take charge of her health in midlife - and thrive well into her later years. Drawing on over 30 years of clinical experience, Dr Ginni Mansberg combines cutting-edge medical research with practical, real-world wisdom to help you future-proof your body and mind, even at a time when life throws you a curveball.

Inside, you'll find smart, actionable advice on:

  • Finding your healthcare people
  • Cardiovascular health - how to reduce your risk of heart disease (still the #1 killer of Aussie women)
  • Gut health - why it matters more than ever in midlife, and how to optimise it
  • Mental wellbeing - strategies to boost mood, reduce stress and safeguard brain health
  • Menopause and hormones - understanding the changes and what you can do about them
  • Sexual health and intimacy - staying connected to yourself and your partner
  • Disease prevention - practical tools to lower your risk of dementia, cancer, diabetes and more

Whether you're juggling teenagers, climbing the career ladder, caring for ageing parents and/or navigating menopause, this book is designed for real women in real life - no fads, no fluff.

Dr Mansberg also includes case studies from her decades in practice, relatable stories and a wide menu of science-backed options, so you can make informed, empowered decisions about your own health.

Because this isn't just about adding years to your life - it's about adding life to your years.
