Nature has given us the ability to live a healthy and productive life until the age of 120 years, but very few people reach this age in good health, mainly because their lifestyle increases the chances of early ageing and disease. However, it is possible to reduce our chances of disability in later life by making some sensible changes to our way of living.

The BLS highlights the advances in antiageing medicine to help prevent diseases and disorders to improve everyone’s optimal health span.
