Aging
Advances in modern medicine have significantly extended life expectancy, allowing us to live longer. However, this increased lifespan also brings new challenges.
As society ages, chronic diseases have become prevalent. These include heart disease, diabetes, cancer and neurodegenerative conditions. They have emerged as the leading causes of disability. To address these issues, current research in the longevity medicine space aims to understand how internal (endogenous) stresses affect aging. It also examines how external (exogenous) stresses contribute to the aging process. This understanding may help prevent age-related diseases and extend both healthspan and lifespan.
Understanding, Measuring, and Intervening for a Healthier Future
The 12 Hallmarks of Aging
Aging is a complex multifactorial process and occurs due to a combination of molecular, cellular, and systemic alterations. These changes gradually impair the body’s ability to maintain homeostasis, leading to age-related diseases.
These processes are interlinked and contribute to the onset of chronic diseases as we age.
Measuring Longevity
Aging can be defined as either chronological or biological. While chronological age tells us how many years we’ve lived, biological age reflects how well our body is functioning. It indicates how likely we are to develop age-related diseases.
Ongoing research is discovering new findings. By tracking minimal fluctuations in key biomarkers of aging, we can intervene earlier. This approach promotes a healthier aging process.
There are a number of ways being researched to predict and assess biological aging. At present, Epigenetic clocks are regarded the most accurate way to do this.
Interventions for Longevity and Chronic Disease Management
Research is uncovering innovative ways to promote longevity and treat aging-related diseases.
These interventions are divided into two categories: strategies for promoting overall health and clinical treatments for specific conditions.
There are promising interventions and therapies for aging. Some of these still require further research. They need to be administered under careful medical supervision and should be personalised to your needs.
