Systemic Healthspan Extension

Meaning

The clinical and biological strategy focused on significantly increasing the number of years an individual lives in a state of robust, high-level health, characterized by freedom from chronic debilitating diseases and functional impairment. This objective targets the underlying molecular mechanisms of biological aging across all major organ systems, including the cardiovascular, metabolic, and endocrine networks. Healthspan extension is considered a more clinically relevant and impactful goal than merely extending total chronological lifespan.
