Aging is an inevitable part of life; so many of us try to resign ourselves to accepting it with grace. The truth is, although growing older is unavoidable, many of the effects of aging are preventable.
We invite you to consider that time affects us all and that the choice
between graceful and productive older years or a period of slow decay and
deterioration is within our reach. It is truly up to us to make that
decision.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure is a landmark concept in health management and is certainly wiser and more cost-effective.
