As a consequence of aging among the population, this new and important concept arose for the preservation of health and to increase longevity, as part of the preventive measures to be taken aiming to a longer and a healthier life.

Unlike Geriatrics, which concept is only based on the chronological age, Anti-Aging dissociates chronological age from biological age, aiming for delaying the latter in regard to the first. Biological age shows the state of the arteries, bones, muscles, endocrine glands, the nervous system, de immunity system, motion capacities, intellectual capacities, etc.

Anti-aging, as a preventive valence, has as main objective to delay the evolution of biological age and as principal target people with 45-65 years old, when a larger number of chronic degenerative diseases start emerging. Anti-Aging relates to air and environment, foods and drinks, work and rest, sleep and insomnia, secretions and excretions, movements and affections of the soul.

The Anti-Aging program is part of the Food Reeducation and Behavioural process and Body Modelling by Clínica do Tempo®, that enables an individualisation of the alimentary regime and weight and fat excess reduction, in a healthy and permanent way. So it is possible to timely prevent different pathologies, of genetic origin or related to lifestyle and life experiences, hence prolonging longevity.
