2. You are a healthy adult who would like to pro-actively prevent the diseases of aging.
3. You are a healthy adult who would like to significantly improve quality of life and live longer.
4. You are a sportsman/woman who would like to enhance performance, increase muscle mass.
5. You are a healthy adult with family history of chronic diseases viz. Diabetes, Obesity, Heart disease, Cancer, etc.
6. You are a healthy adult and your goal is to "look and feel younger" by 10-20 years.

Biologically speaking, the aging process of cells inside human body kick-starts at around 28 years of age and as years pass by there is gradual deterioration in body organ functioning. The energy levels go down, visual acuity decreases, libido takes a hit, memory deteriorates, skin loses its texture/quality, wrinkles appear, muscle mass decreases, sleep quality deteriorates, fat gain tendency increases and in many people chronic diseases like diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, cancer, obesity, etc get diagnosed once they cross 40-50s.
The good news is that with today's latest antiaging science and biotechnology most of the abovementioned can be prevented or reversed.
Anti-aging and regenerative medicine is a field of medical practice specifically aimed at early diagnosis and prevention of disease, possible reversal of existing disease and slowing down of general aging process to "look and feel younger" by 10-20 years.
In conventional(pharmaceutical) medicine, doctors attempt to address the processes of illness and control its symptoms. A conventional doctor will prescribe drugs to help mask individual disease symptoms. Because prescription drugs have undesired side effects, they tend to cause further problems in the patient's body. These secondary symptoms are not the result of the underlying disease, but rather the effect of medication used to alleviate the original symptoms. The patient receives more drugs and the downward spiral of masking disease with prescription drugs continues. The doctor's role is often reduced to managing drugs and not patient's health.
Antiaging and regenerative medicine deals with the actual physiological and biochemical causes for diseases and age-related disorders. Anti-aging doctors focus on treating the body at the microscopic, cellular, and biochemical levels. Anti-aging doctors find and treat the root cause of disease, and not simply prescribe medication to mask disease symptoms. Instead of maintaining disease in its current state, anti-aging medicine emphasizes the need to improve health, optimize performance, and increase the quality of life for the patient. Antiaging Medicine looks at both external (environmental) and internal (lifestyle) factors to determine the best course of patient care in terms of what is optimal. Normal and optimal are not the same. It is “normal” to deteriorate with age. With the right guidance, it is possible to functional optimally, as well as you did when you were younger.
Difference between "Normal" and " Optimal"
Example 1- Conventional doctor would consider the total testosterone level in men of anything between 2700 to 9700 pg/mL to be "Normal" while from an antiaging doctor's perspective the "Optimal "level for optimal male health should be between 6000 to 9000 pg/mL.
Example 2- Conventional doctor would consider daily intake(RDA) of just 90 mg of Vitamin C to be "Normal/Sufficient" while from an antiaging doctor's perspective the "Optimal" daily intake should be between 1000-2000 mg for optimal functioning of all organs. Human body cannot produce its own Vitamin C so it has to be supplemented from outside.
Example 3- High homocysteine level is one of the major causes of cardiovascular disease. For conventional doctor the homocysteine level of anything between 5 to 15 mcmol/L is within "Normal" accepted range. An antiaging doctor would aim to achieve level below 6 mcmol/L which would be "Optimal" for cardiovascular health. Every 4mcmol increment above 6 mcmol/L increases the risk of heart attack and stroke by 200% ! Person with level of 15 mcmol is 4 times more likely to get heart attack or stroke.
Many people are unaware about the actual meaning and methods of interpretation of so called "laboratory reference range" and "recommended dietary allowance".
A Laboratory reference range is defined as the set of values 95 percent of the normal population falls within. It is determined by collecting data from vast numbers of laboratory tests. If your laboratory test reports are within "Normal" range it just means that you are one of those 95 % people. It has no co-relation whatsoever with optimum health.
The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA), is set from an estimated average requirement that represents an intake amount that will meet the needs of about 50 percent of the population. The RDA concept is based on the bare minimum necessary for survival of human beings and not from the best possible health perspective. On the contrary, an antiaging doctor always strives to achieve optimal laboratory values and recommends personalized optimum nutrition for ideal functioning of body organs.
What is anti-aging consultation and diagnosis-
Patient fills out medical questionnaire and undergoes specific antiaging blood tests recommended by antiaging doctor. Based on the results of blood test report and questionnaire doctor makes a comprehensive Personalized Antiaging Medical Report(PAMR) with recommendations and advice on specific risk factors in patient's particular case, specific nutritional supplements, life-style changes, dietary modifications, exercise program and follow up on current medications from an antiaging perspective. This report gives an accurate idea about patient's current health status and helps in an early diagnosis, prevention and possibly complete reversal of existing diseases.
An earlier diagnosis, preventive measures and if necessary undergoing regenerative antiaging therapies can make a significantly positive difference to quality of life and longevity.
