Do you want to live past 75? If the answer to that question seems obvious, consider that the average human, at this point in time, will face a 16 year decline, beginning in their early 60s, until the end of their lifespan in their late 70s. This is the difference between what we call lifespan and healthspan. Luckily for us, there's an industry of longevity that has been gaining steam over the past decade or more, and part of that longevity industry is Altheda Wellness. Join us as we speak with CEO Chris MacLean and CSO Melanie Kelly from Altheda Wellness and learn how they're developing nutraceuticals to help the elderly population stretch out their healthspan by working on the issues that put their health the most at risk.
