Slow down ageing and prevent disease!
What would you do if you had only two options and must choose one, a short life that was healthy from the beginning till the end or a long life that ended with many years of disease and its attendant sufferings, pain, surgeries, disability, immobility, bed sores and many others?
These are the two options available in a world where cure for incurable lifestyle diseases is sought after instead of prevention. In a world without preventive health education and motivation for lifestyle change to prevent diseases like cancer, hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, chronic obstructive lung disease, degenerative joint diseases and other diseases of civilization, the only people that would escape the above-mentioned sufferings are those that die early before disease strikes.
None of us would choose to die early or commit suicide for the sake of escaping disease or its attendant sufferings and neither would any of us want to end our long lives like many who worked so hard only to suffer heart, kidney and organ failures, paralysis from stroke and degenerative diseases affecting the spine, cancer and other preventable but incurable diseases.
If it turns out that I’m right, then it means nobody wants to die young and nobody wants to live a sadly- ending long life. For those of you that belong to this category, I’ve got good news for you: “You can remain young even in old age by slowing the ageing process and staying disease-free. In other words, even though you can’t reduce your calendar age, you can do something about your biological age such that you can have the anatomical, physiological and biochemical systems of a 30-year old in a 90-year
