Longevity and Geriatrics (Hardback)

The physical aging process, which results in the aging of cells, tissues, and organs, varies differently in each individual due to the influence of environmental and life factors. Medical science has long been working to slow down or even stop and reverse the aging process. With the unraveling of the human genetic code, efforts to genetically intervene in the aging process have accelerated, and animal experiments have proven that this is possible. Today, many molecules have been proven to prolong a healthy life span. Despite all these scientific advances, it is a fact of our time that medicine continues to grapple with aging and age-related health issues. Therefore, on the one hand, medicine is advancing rapidly in the field of longevity and anti-aging, and on the other hand, it is advancing in providing optimal care to individuals suffering from age-related health problems. This book provides information on the latest advances in longevity, detailing the health challenges and solutions facing today's geriatric population.
