Life extension

Life extension is the science or research of lengthening the lifespan of a person or organism through medical treatments and/or lifestyle changes. It means living longer and healthier lives by slowing down the aging process. Scientists want to understand why and how people get older, and then use that knowledge to help us live longer and healthier. To do this, they study different things like how our bodies change as we age and how to keep them healthy. They also look at things like diet and exercise to figure out ways to help us stay healthy and active for longer.
