Age-Related Disease Resistance

Meaning

Age-Related Disease Resistance describes a state of superior physiological resilience where an individual exhibits a markedly reduced susceptibility to the chronic, debilitating conditions typically associated with advancing chronological age. This desirable clinical profile reflects a superior, sustained maintenance of cellular and systemic functional capacity over an extended period. It is a measurable outcome of successful longevity interventions, distinct from merely extending the total lifespan. The primary focus is on compressing the period of morbidity and sustaining a high quality of healthspan into later life.
