Exciting papers by leading researchers are integrated in this
volume with presentations having direct clinical relevance: thus,
the latest scientific advances in aging research are coupled with
reports on how these advances are being applied to longevity
medicine.
Topics include oxidative stress, genetic/biochemical mechanisms,
hormone therapy, nutrition, fitness, and exercise, all as they
pertain to aging.
In exploring the links between the latest basic gerontological
research and the practice of longevity medicine, the current
challenges faced by both scientists and clinicians engaged in
combating aging and its consequences are presented here. This
volume is readily accessible to the educated reader who is
interested in learning more about how to reduce the negative impact
of aging on human health and longevity.
