19SW06 - Understanding Biological Aging and Diversity, Part 1

Speaker: Donald Yance, RH(AHG). Increased life expectancy and a larger number of older people living with chronic disease will affect our lives and the life of each person we know. The regular medical paradigm regards the diseases of aging as individual maladies to be treated with pharmaceuticals. Part 1 discusses the chronic diseases of aging, and the frailty syndrome that accompanies them, which are now thought to be the norm. Causes include diet, lifestyle, accumulated stress and pharmaceutical side effects. New research indicates that aging is a condition treatable with broad-reaching, multi-adaptive health-promoting botanical and nutritional medicine. These are discussed in Part 2.
