Meet the Author at Darien Library: Gene Stone, Author of "The Secrets of People Who Never Get Sick."

 On Thursday, October 21 at 7 p.m., Gene Stone, author of The Secrets of People Who Never Get Sick, will be the featured speaker at Darien Library.
The Secrets of People Who Never Get Sick tells the stories of 25 people who each possess a different secret of excellent health, and shows how we can all use these insights to improve our own lives. The stories make it personal; then comes the science, the expert authority, and the nuts and bolts. From probiotics to veganism to a daily dose of garlic, from yoga to cold showers, it's an extensive list: 25 secrets to health and how to make each work for you.

A book signing will follow the presentation. Books will be available for purchase at the event.
