LIFESPAN is simply the number of years you’re alive - from birth to death.
HEALTHSPAN is the number of years you’re healthy and thriving - free from chronic disease, disability, and significant decline in physical or cognitive function.
in the United States, the average lifespan is about 76 years, but the average healthspan ends around age 63. this means most Americans spend their final 13 years dealing with chronic disease, disability, or significant health decline.
think about that for a moment - over a decade of life spent not feeling well.
we’ve gotten really good at extending lifespan. people are living longer than ever before.
but we haven’t necessarily gotten better at extending healthspan. many people spend their final decades dealing with chronic diseases, taking multiple medications, and unable to do the activities they love.
the goal isn’t just to live longer - it’s to live BETTER.
imagine being 80 years old and still having the energy to travel, play with grandchildren, pursue hobbies, and feel vibrant in your body. that’s what healthspan is all about.
research shows that up to 75% of aging is influenced by lifestyle choices. this means we have tremendous power over not just how long we live, but how well we live.
through evidence-based lifestyle interventions - the right nutrition, movement, stress management, sleep optimization, and detoxification support - we can add years to our healthspan, not just our lifespan.
the choices you make today don’t just determine how long you’ll live - they determine how WELL you’ll live every single one of those years.
