"Being born is not a crime, so why must it carry a sentence of death?"
|
| |
|
-- Robert Ettinger

Diet, lifestyle and medical choices over the course of your life make a large difference to your longevity and health. The choice
between being incapacitated at age sixty or living to celebrate an active, healthy hundredth birthday is - barring bad luck or poor genes - in
your hands. It's never too early or too late to start thinking about how you can improve the quality of your life, and take reasonable steps
to ensure your future health and well-being.
You are responsible for your own choices - medicine, diet, lifestyle, exercise, and supplements - as well as the research needed to make
those choices. No-one can run your life for you; even your physician is there to help, not dictate. Many groups offer suggestions,
commonly followed guidelines, shorter paths through the confusing wealth of information,
and links to respected resources - but it is up to you to make the best use of this information.
Calorie restriction (eating fewer calories while still receiving the correct nutrients) is the only presently available technique
that has been scientifically proven to extend maximum longevity in mammals. It offers a number of other proven health benefits, such as greatly
reduced risk of suffering common age-related conditions. You owe it to yourself to investigate
the practice of calorie restriction.
Take greater care of your longevity and you will more likely be alive, active, and healthy in the decades ahead, ready to benefit
from the results of healthy life extension research. The first steps are already underway: regenerative medicine; the final defeat of
cancer; repair of aging immune systems; identification of the root causes of aging; and much more. In years to come, scientists
will develop therapies capable of greatly extending the
healthy human life span - and will eventually defeat the aging process entirely. Why risk missing out by failing to take
better care of your prospects today?
