Immune to Age by Dr. Jenna Macciochi

Book Review

Immune to Age: The Game-Changing Science of Lifetime Health” by Dr. Jenna Macciochi is a compelling and insightful exploration of the vital role the immune system plays across the human lifespan. Dr. Macciochi, an expert immunologist, challenges the narrow perception of immunity as merely a defense against disease, revealing its profound influence on longevity, metabolic function, brain health, and overall healthspan. Through clear, accessible storytelling and scientific rigor, she offers a paradigm shift in how we understand ageing, positioning the immune system as the central player in maintaining health from conception through old age.

The book blends cutting-edge science with actionable lifestyle advice, emphasizing simple yet effective measures such as diet, exercise, and holistic care to support immune function. Dr. Macciochi highlights critical concepts like “inflammageing,” a chronic low-grade inflammation that accelerates ageing and disease, and presents practical strategies to counteract it, particularly through movement that stimulates anti-inflammatory responses and supports key immune organs like the thymus gland. Her approach debunks hype around costly longevity hacks, focusing instead on sustainable, evidence-based habits grounded in her scholarly expertise and personal roots.
