Healthspan

Healthspan refers to the period in a person's life when they are generally healthy and free from serious diseases or disabilities. It emphasizes not just living longer, but living well—enjoying good physical and mental health for as long as possible. Research in healthspan aims to understand how to enhance this quality of life through lifestyle choices, such as diet, exercise, and mental well-being, thereby ensuring that individuals can remain active and engaged well into their later years. Focusing on healthspan can lead to a more fulfilling and vibrant life.
