This may be a good source for it: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25663961-how-not-to-die

The book is about food, but mostly it talks about oxidation of the body and how various foods affect that, because that seems to be the main factor for aging and other degradation of the body. (TL;dr: eat a lot of broccoli)

I'm not an expert though, so cannot judge how accurately the science is presented

Thanks, I'm not either so this will help me a ton. Thanks!
