Veelgestelde vragen
What is the difference between healthspan and lifespan?
Lifespan is how long you live. Healthspan is how long you live in good health — free from chronic disease, disability, and significant decline. The average person spends their last 10-12 years dealing with serious health issues.
How can I increase my healthspan?
The biggest levers are regular exercise (especially strength training for muscle and bone preservation), quality sleep, a nutrient-dense diet, stress management, maintaining social connections, and preventive health screenings.
What are the biggest threats to healthspan?
The top threats are cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cognitive decline, cancer, and musculoskeletal issues. Many share common risk factors: sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, chronic inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction.
What is compression of morbidity?
Compression of morbidity means pushing disease and disability into the shortest possible period at the end of life. Instead of slowly declining over 15 years, the goal is to maintain high function until very late in life. Research shows this is achievable through consistent exercise, healthy diet, and preventive care.
