Timeless wisdom on growing old gracefully from one of ancient Rome's greatest philosophers

Worried that old age will inevitably mean losing your libido, your health, and possibly your marbles too? Well, Cicero has some good news for you. In How to Grow Old, the great Roman orator and statesman eloquently describes how you can make the second half of life the best part of all--and why you might discover that reading and gardening are actually far more pleasurable than sex ever was.

Filled with timeless wisdom and practical guidance, Cicero's brief, charming classic--written in 44 BC and originally titled On Old Age--has delighted and inspired readers, from Saint Augustine to Thomas Jefferson, for more than two thousand years. Presented here in a lively new translation with an informative new introduction and the original Latin on facing pages, the book directly addresses the greatest fears of growing older and persuasively argues why these worries are greatly exaggerated--or altogether mistaken.

Montaigne said Cicero's book gives one an appetite for growing old. The American founding father John Adams read it repeatedly in his later years. And today its lessons are more relevant than ever in a world obsessed with the futile pursuit of youth.

Good quality oil, but the dispenser is a nightmare to use
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This MCT oil is truly odorless, colorless, and tasteless. While the oil quality itself seems good, the dispenser on the cap is terrible. I understand the design is meant to keep air out, but you have to squeeze the bottle quite hard to get any oil out, making it impossible to control the flow. Every time I try to pour a small amount onto a spoon, it shoots out and splatters all over my hands and the counter. Now, I just take the entire cap off, pour it onto the spoon, and close it back up. Great oil, but the bottle design needs a major update.

Impressive Quality and Results
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using Nature's Way Organic MCT Oil (16 Fl Oz) for several months, and it has truly exceeded my expectations. The oil is sourced from organic coconuts and contains both C8 Caprylic Acid and C10 Capric Acid, which are known for their benefits in supporting energy and mental clarity. I love that it is both Keto and Paleo certified, making it a perfect addition to my diet. The neutral taste and smooth texture make it easy to add to coffee, smoothies, or salad dressings without altering the flavor. It blends well and never leaves an oily residue. Whether I’m starting my morning with a bulletproof coffee or adding a boost to my shakes, Nature’s Way MCT Oil fits seamlessly into my routine. The fact that this MCT oil is USDA Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified gives me peace of mind about its purity and quality. I feel confident that I’m fueling my body with a clean product free from unwanted additives or chemicals. Since incorporating this oil, I’ve noticed an increase in my sustained energy levels and improved focus throughout the day. It helps me feel full longer, which is great for intermittent fasting and maintaining my Keto lifestyle. I also appreciate that it supports both brain and body health as advertised. I highly recommend Nature's Way Organic MCT Oil to anyone looking for a high-quality MCT supplement. It’s great for athletes, those on Keto or Paleo diets, or anyone seeking a clean, effective source of energy. The packaging is sturdy, the pour spout is convenient, and the value for the price is excellent. I’ll definitely be repurchasing.
