Anti-Aging Medicine

Anti-aging medicine, an extension of preventive health care, is the next great model of health care for the new millennium. Based on early detection, prevention, and reversal of age- related diseases, the science of anti-aging medicine is truly multi- disciplinary. Not only represented by advancements in the fields of biochemistry, biology, and physiology, the field is enhanced by contributions from mind/body medicine, sports medicine, molecular genetics, and emerging medical technologies. Anti-aging medicine is evidence-based, clinically sound health care. Indeed, only those diagnostic and treatment elements which prove their validity through independent evaluations are embraced by qualified practitioners.

If you have ever had your cholesterol tested, taken a lipid-lowering drug, had a mammogram, or taken HRT with thyroid, testosterone, estrogen, melatonin, or DHEA, you have experienced anti-aging medicine. This form of medicine is based on the very early detection, prevention, and reversal of age-related disease. 90% of all adult illness is due to the degenerative processes of aging. These illnesses include heart disease, most cancers, adult-onset diabetes, stroke, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, autoimmune disease, glaucoma, and Alzheimer's. With early detection and appropriate intervention, most of these diseases can be prevented, cured, or have their downward course reversed.

Anti-Aging Specialty

Anti-aging medicine is the newest clinical medical specialty. The "optimum" of wellness and longevity, anti-aging medicine employs extensive therapies and treatment in the preventative health care field far beyond just cholesterol testing and mammogram's. A profound paradigm shift in the way the medical establishment views aging and age-related disease is currently underway.

Medical science acknowledges age related decline in the quality of our bodily functions and the progressive loss of important hormones as we age play a major role in age-related illnesses. There is nothing “natural” about ignoring the ability of medical intervention to replace these hormones to healthy physiological levels. This has given rise to the concept of hormone rebalancing or Interventional Endocrinology, meaning the correction of hormone levels to intervene in the aging process. The role of a physician practicing Interventional Endocrinology is to evaluate the levels of all hormones such as; Thyroid, Testosterone, Estrogens, Progesterone, DHEA, DHT, Growth Hormone, IGF-1, and others to assure that all are present and at healthy levels.

Aging is treatable

We now know that aging is a treatable condition that can be slowed and reversed by the customized approach unique to an individual’s diagnostic profile.

  1. Aging treatment may include a highly individualized nutritional, hormonal, and pharmacological therapy. Intervening in the aging process may involve a mix of anti-oxidants and free radical scavengers that stimulate your body's own maintenance and repair processes.
  2. Based on the patient’s profile, treatment can strengthen the immune system, replenish declining hormone levels, and maintain and repair cells and organs.
  3. At Nouveau Jeunesse we take a natural approach to improve sagging muscles and reduce body fat. Finally, we expertly assist with any desired cosmetic changes for a total well rounded program.

We at Nouveau Jeunesse are dedicated to the advancement of technology to detect, prevent, and treat aging related disease and to promote research into methods to retard and optimize the human aging process.
