What? Another Website with Information on Antiaging?

Yes, this is yet another Web site with information on antiaging. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of sites related to antiaging---and I think I have looked at most of them in the last few weeks! However, my goal is different from any other sites I've seen.

Let me explain why I feel this site is necessary.

Bias, naivety, and possibly---at times---dishonesty do sometimes color the information that is presented on the Web, including the information on antiaging. How can you tell when the information is accurate or not?

What I wish I could do is test all of the so-called antiaging products to see if they really do what the Websites say they do. However, it would take all of Bill Gates' assets to buy every product there is, and a lifetime would not be long enough to try them all out.

I would like to read every word of all the research that is referred to and see if they really make the statements that are attributed to them. But much of what is claimed to be research or clinical studies apparently has never been put onto paper except when stating the results that are claimed by product promoters.

Since my wishes are not realistically within reach, what I am doing instead is creating a resource (a valuable resource, I trust) that provides:

  • Guidelines for how to evaluate anti aging claims and products that you find on the Web.

  • Basic information to aid in that evaluation.

  • Evaluations of some of the many products available; I want to demonstrate the guidelines I give and show you the nuts and bolts of the logic involved.

  • Information about every important area that pertains to antiaging---all on one Website: anti aging diet (and diets), antiaging personal care, antiaging medicine, fitness for seniors, why supplements, aging and mental health, and lots more.

  • Strategies to help you design an anti aging plan that suits your needs, your personality, and your pocketbook---and one where you don't have to do as one lady bragged (true story): "I open 43 bottles every morning." I'm sure you can think of better (and "funner") ways to spend your time than that!

  • Serious information mixed with a little humor. I might even tell you a few personal stories along the way---like how the mental health center I worked for changed some rules to keep ME from ever again reviewing patients' records in a nursing home, or why I got reprimanded several times for "practicing medicine without a license" because I suggested a client needed vitamins instead of counseling! (I'll signal when something is a story so you can easily skip it if you want to just read the nitty-gritty.)

  • Opportunity for you to share some of your research about or experiences with products, antiaging medications, or other pertinent information on antiaging. You'll see these opportunities on certain other pages of this Website.

  • Upfront warnings when I am aware I am giving biased information. For example, although I am not totally a purist in this, I do tend to prefer natural remedies over chemical remedies. This will influence my evaluations, I am sure, but you will know that from the beginning.

  • Honest Information on Antiaging is always evolving; I will regularly be adding and updating information, so be sure to visit from time to time to get the latest news.
