– What is preventive (anti-air) medicine and how differs from directions that are engaged in aesthetic problems?

– Differs to all. Anti-Age medicine in a modern understanding is a specialty at the junction of therapy, endocrinology, genetics, gerontology, cosmetology and psychotherapy, the main resources of which are aimed at extending quality (and this is the main) life. In fact, no one needs life expectancy for more than 100 years, if the life is pain. Active life, filled, active – this is what to extend.

– Who do these doctors anti-Age medicine?

– These are experts of a wide profile with higher medical education, having a preventologus diploma or an integrative medicine doctor (American version).

– So there are special courses for doctors in this direction?

– Not only exist, but without this diploma, the doctor does not have the right to appoint you "Safe Bada with Iherb". Moreover, these are not courses, but 2 years of study at the Institute of Preventive and Integrative Medicine. Sorry for the complex name, while it is not so recognizable and on hearing, as in the West, but we work on it. The doctors of our branch were the first doctors in the Trans-Baikal Territory, which received diplomas for preventive medicine.

– What methods are used in preventive medicine? Due to what can be achieved to preserve the health and youth of the body?

– The first is a quality diagnosis. As well as curing existing pathology, especially chronic, or bringing it to persistent remission, analysis of the genetic characteristics of the body and planning a lifestyle in accordance with them, correction of deficit, normalization of sleep, support for diseases and lifestyers. For example, if a person has a work related to frequent flights or access to night shifts.

– How much time is it worth observed by a doctor of preventive medicine?

– I want to say – all my life. If you bought a new cool car and, let's say you know that this car is with you now until the end of days, how often will the technical inspection be held? Only the first three years? Of the practice – dense work with the patient goes the first three years. Then many things about their body patients are already understood.

Interaction with the doctor will really last as much as the patient wants to maintain the high quality of his life. Just meetings will be less likely. Previously, rich families have always been a family doctor who knew the history of the disease of a whole kind, and not one person.Now the doctor usually spends about 15 minutes with the patient and gives prescriptions without knowing anything about his personality.

— How can I understand that I need the help of an anti-aging specialist, and not an ordinary therapist or cosmetologist?

— Therapist treats diseases. The beautician corrects aesthetic defects and corrects external aging. A preventologist (a specialist in anti-aging medicine) prevents aging from the inside, ideally when nothing hurts. As a result, the effect of cosmetic corrections is greatly enhanced. And you go to the therapist much less often.

– At what age should one contact such a specialist?

– Ideal – 25 years. It is then that age-related changes begin, this is the optimal time to build a plan for maintaining health. In fact, you can start at any age. But you will also start slowing down aging from the age at which you applied.

– Does it happen that it is “too late”, or is it never too late to start fighting for beauty and youth?

— Of course, it happens. As soon as hormonal depletion sets in (menopause in women or andropause in men), generally irreversible changes are triggered. And the period before these pauses is about five years before the debut. The next question is your genetics. But this is only plus or minus a few years. In medicine, there is the concept of palliative care – help in alleviating suffering. With strong age-related changes, preventive measures can remove or alleviate symptoms, but they cannot cure.

– Are there any contraindications?

To be healthy and live long? Of course have. Envious people who save on their health may hate you. But don't worry, they will die before you. (laughs).

To whom are these services particularly recommended?

— People who are interested in investing in their own health, and those who treat it responsibly. The doctor won't do anything for you. And (now there will be a spoiler) – no, there is no magic pill. You will have to work according to the doctor's recommendations.

Keeping your health at a high level is really hard work. I can say for myself how a patient receiving such therapy every day is a certain overcoming of oneself. Because without the correction of lifestyle there are no results that we aspire to. But the reward in the form of excellent health, high performance, sometimes too (laughs), which motivates me to keep going.

Is it just for women or for men too?

According to statistics, men live less than women. Then, first of all, it is for men. But in general, we have already understood – for all people who want to live long and easy.
