NOTE

Exploring the Foundations of Health Span Optimization

Health span optimization focuses on understanding and enhancing the biological processes of aging. It emphasizes the identification of the mechanisms linking aging to functional declines and diseases. A comprehensive approach involves the establishment of four foundational pillars: nutrition (Eat), exercise (Move), sleep (Sleep), and social and mental connections (Connect). Each pillar's strength is assessed to determine areas for improvement. A thorough initial evaluation, termed 'gateway day', is conducted using various tools, including comprehensive blood work, imaging techniques like DEXA, and assessments of physiological functions such as VO2 max and strength. This medical approach aims to identify existing health issues, advanced cancer screenings, and age-related diseases to guide personalized intervention strategies, whether through lifestyle modifications or medications, aimed at improving individual health span trajectories.
