They do not fight death and yet, it passes them by. What are their secrets? A spoonful of olive oil at dawn. A path walked in prayer. A silence that speaks louder than the world. It is not just food that nourishes the body, but faith that fills the soul. Science stands in awe: their hearts beat steadily, their bones remain unyielding, their gaze as clear as a mountain spring.      <\/p>\n<p>This book is not just a glimpse into their lives\u2014it is a map. A map to help you find your own way to resilience, peace, and a life measured not just in years, but in moments that truly matter. Because true longevity is not mere survival, but fulfillment and light.  <\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_video src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ayc5Ie7unkw&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_video][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;book-details&#8221; module_class=&#8221;book-details&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|40px||40px|true|true&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_css_free_form=&#8221;selector{display:inline-block;}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>ISBN: 9786188752627<br \/>Publication Date: March 2025<br \/>Number of Pages: 170<br \/>Dimensions: 21&#215;14<br \/>Editor: Giorgos Proestos<br \/>Price (\u20ac) excl.
