Are you mentally ready?
Sorry for the shock! It's a picture of me getting tested at APEX, Dr. Jeffrey Gladden's concierge medical wellness practice.
Apex treatment plands are individually tailored to optimize your health, human performance, and longevity. They begin with a deep dive into your underlying genetic, physiologic & biochemical makeup, and then benchmark neurocognitive function, body composition, cardiovascular performance, hormonal status and much more. Ultimately, they help you rethink your concepts of aging and decline. Think about it, how many more decades of being healthy, fit, and vital do you want?
Over the past couple of weeks I have shared multiple articles on fitness:
- Part 1, Finding A Way
- Part 2, Measuring Normalized Behavior
- Part 3, Getting Used To A New Normal
It got me thinking about the difference between the way we view healthcare and what healthcare really should be. Healthcare takes care of you once you're sick, but it should really help you stay healthier for longer.
Many of my friends now believe that with technology and a sustained focus on health & longevity, they can live past 100. They're paying attention to genetic, physiologic & biochemical makeup, cognitive function, body composition, cardiovascular performance, hormonal status and much more.
And whether they're going to live past 100 or not, I can see the daily results in the quality of their life, and the way they look.
I fully intend on being here for a long time ... So, I'm building the habits to keep me healthy. I'm investing in wellness care so I don't have to invest in healthcare.
I encourage you to ask yourself how you can do the same. Ask yourself "how good can I be?" and "how long can I sustain that?"
What a great investment.
