Anti-Aging Medicine
“Live a Longer Healthier Life through Early Detection & Prevention”
Anti-Aging medicine is the early detection, prevention, treatment, and reversal of age-related diseases to help prolong a healthy lifespan. The goal of Anti-Aging medicine is not to merely prolong the total years of an individual’s life, but to ensure that those years are enjoyed in a productive and vital fashion.
The anti-aging medical model aims to both extend lifespan as well as prolong healthspan – the length of time that we are able to live productively and independently.
Anti-Aging medicine is based on scientific evidence and is an orderly process for acquiring patient information and testing in order to formulate a scientific, objective and individualized assessment upon which an effective treatment plan is devised. It has been found that modest interventions in diet, exercise, and nutrition will significantly impact healthy functioning of the body as we age.
There are biomarkers of aging that can be examined and thus enable early detection of risk factors for age related disease. Anti-Aging medicine optimizes the human aging process.
At WH Wellness and Health, Dr. Kirsten can have your bio-markers assessed through specialized independent testing.
