“Western society doesn't make it easy to increase our longevity potential. Our youth-driven culture and our neglect of the aged promote a wholesale denial of the realities of aging. The marketplace is full of products and devices promising to make us look and feel younger. In addition, conventional Western medicine focuses on treatment and replacement therapy, prescribing expensive drugs, removing a failed organ and transplanting a new one, or replenishing a depleted hormone. Very little emphasis has been placed on preventing disease and maintaining a vigorous state of health day to day.” HealthAgingLifestyleWellnessPreventative Medicine Book:Secrets of Longevity: Hundreds of Ways to Live to Be 100 Source: Secrets of Longevity: Hundreds of Ways to Live to Be 100
