Part 1: The science of aging well
The population is living longer, but not always healthier. Today, most of us will spend our last 10 years of life battling ill health.1 However, addressing this is key if we want to live vibrant and fulfilling lives, even into our senior years.2 Yet, as a society, we question, “How long will I live?”, when we should be asking: “How can I remain healthy for longer?”
Enter nutritional supplements. New, cutting-edge research shows that it is possible to increase our health expectancy, i.e., the number of years we live in good health, by targeting the processes of aging at a cellular and system level—making our senior years not just longer, but some of our best.
From triage theory to cellular senescence, part one of our latest whitepaper series explores cutting edge research that's transforming our understanding of aging processes.
