ANTI-AGING MEDICINE
Today, scientists know much more about the deterioration and vulnerability to disease that contribute to biological aging - the decline in performance of our bodily systems, from mental function to sexual performance to physical strength. In a contemporary approach to aging, known as anti-aging medicine, the disabilities and diseases associated with what we consider as "normal aging" are caused by physiological dysfunctions, that, in many cases, are ameliorable to medical treatment. As a result, the human lifespan can be increased while the quality of life is maintained or improved. In short, biological aging can be beneficially impacted, and aging is not inevitable.1

LEADERSHIP ROLE IN ANTI-AGING MEDICINE
A new clinical medical specialty that creates a new paradigm for proactive preventive healthcare was born with the inception of A4M in 1993.

During the past seven years, the hgh-visibility leadership role served by A4M in the professional, government, educational, and consumer forums has been instrumental in the continued prolific growth of this specialty and its marketplace.2

A4M is 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. A4M is also dedicated to educating physicians, scientists, and members of the public on biomedical sciences, breaking technologies, and anti-aging issues. A4M believes that the disabilities associated with normal aging are caused by physiological dysfunction which in many cases are ameliorable to medical treatment, such that the human lifespan can be increased, and the quality of one's life enhanced as one grows chronologically older. Although A4M seeks to disseminate information on many types of medical treatments, it does not promote or endorse any specific treatment nor does it sell or endorse any commercial product.

As a registered non-profit scientific medical society, the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M) is the only non-profit, non-commercial, medical society in the world devoted to eradicating the degenerative diseases of aging. Fourteen years ago, A4M became the first scientific nonprofit medical society to forecast the deliverance of human lifespans in excess of 100 years.
