Health and beauty

“The wish of all human beings is to live as long as possible and to remain healthy and active, also in their old age.” This presentation will focus on the educational campaign to enlighten Nigerians on the specific problems besetting their health, the problems of aging, longevity, and reasons for premature death, healthy living and the role of nutrition in regard to our health, in particular, preventive strategies and measures. These form the basis of ANTI-AGING MEDICINE, the magical, medical buzz-word of the 21st. Century. Because of the importance that is attached to the health of the people, I feel indebted and motivated to contribute, in this way, by starting this educational enlightenment campaign to create awareness and to sensitize our people to factors that pose problems for their health and which, in the long run, will also determine how sick or healthy they will be later in life. Without good information on health problems and the causes of the simplest sicknesses, many of our people, due to ignorance, may not be in a position to react early enough, to take preventive measures or even to see the medical doctor before it is too late.
