Most health organizations and ministers work in silo from country to country, but what if we could convene to combine that information, reaping the benefits across nations and sharing the discoveries that come from such collaborations? 🎙️A snippet from Translating Aging podcast with Dr. Mehmood Khan on Extending Global Healthspan.

Between 1946 and 1964, we experienced a tidal wave of births, the baby boom. Today, baby boomers make up a substantial portion of the world's population, especially in developed nations. So, while birth rates continue to decline, the aging population continues to grow and live longer. With longer life expectancy often accompanied by health challenges in later years, this aging population faces a future where they may not have the same support system previous generations enjoyed. We need a new imperative: to extend the healthy human lifespan for everyone, ensuring equitable and accessible access to therapies that promote healthier aging. This requires reimagining aging, adapting our policies and healthcare models, and rethinking our health investments. At Hevolution, we're investing in aging research and innovation in life sciences and medicine. While there's no one-size-fits-all solution, our goal is clear: to extend the healthy human lifespan - healthspan - for the benefit of all 🧡 📣 We're gearing up for the Global Healthspan Summit 2025, the world's largest healthspan gathering.

The concept of "aging in place" or "aging at home" has gained significant attention in the West. We all agree that having a sense of community is essential, especially as we age, and staying home as long as possible contributes to our physical and emotional well-being. While some government initiatives are addressing this increasing demand, a visible leadership gap exists in promoting healthy longevity. Policymakers, healthcare professionals, scientists, and entrepreneurs all play a crucial role in filling this gap to extend the healthy human lifespan - healthspan. What could enable the successful implementation of new government initiatives and reforms? The Global Healthspan Report 2023 underscores the need to invest in aging science and discover solutions that could enable people to age well. By lengthening healthspan, older individuals can continue to support themselves and contribute to their communities. 📣 We're gearing up for the Global Healthspan Summit 2025, the world's largest healthspan gathering.

In recent industry news, two leading companies are intensifying their focus on medical nutrition - specialized products for managing medical conditions - for an aging population. According to Market Research Future® (MRFR) and amidst efforts to meet rising demand, the Global Medical Nutrition industry is projected to grow from $53.58 Billion in 2024 to $106.84 Billion by 2032. This comes at a time when the global population aged 65 years or older is expected to more than double by 2050. Extending healthspan to keep people healthy for as long as possible demands proactive approaches from policymakers, legislators, and food safety governing bodies. This raises important questions: Is the food industry prepared for this rapid demographic growth? How can it innovate to meet their evolving needs?

In the 1960s, there were six working-age individuals for every retired person. Today, that ratio has shrunk to about three-to-one, and it's projected to drop to just two-to-one by 2035, according to the World Economic Forum 📉. The age dependency ratio measures the ratio of dependents (those younger than 15 or older than 64) to the working-age population (those ages 15-64). It helps gauge the economic burden on the working-age population to support those who are not economically active. This rapid shift underscores the increasing challenges posed by an aging population on global economic and social systems. As Dr. Mehmood Khan emphasizes, "Fewer and fewer younger people are expected to support more older people. Ignoring it is NOT an option." From policies promoting higher birth rates and immigration reforms to predictions of replacing lost workforce with AI, our focus takes a different approach: catalyze the shift from lifespan to healthspan - keeping people healthy for as long as possible - and giving aging a better future 🧡. 📣We’re gearing up for The Global Healthspan Summit 2025 - world’s largest healthspan gathering.
