Social, economic and medical progresses bring to lifespan prolongation, and society is experiencing population aging.
Evidences suggest that the relative amount of life in good health has remained broadly constant, implying that the additional years are lived in poor health.
Seniors are therefore raising challenging questions, asking for new services and opportunities to better manage their aging, so as to live their years in a good state of health, continuing to enjoy their habits and activities.
Historically, the Pharmacy has been the institutional place dedicated to the dispensing of drugs, but the advancing world and population aging are pushing pharmacies to provide new kind of services, mainly aimed at preserving their well-being status along the years.
Preserving a good state of health along the late years is now a fundamental prerogative for the senior and the modern society.
The Farmacia Antiaging® comes in to life to address the unmet need of senior citizens to easily manage their aging in a preventive manner.
To monitor the well-being status of the senior (50+) so as to pave the way for a long, peaceful and healthy life over the years.
Recent scientific researches highlight how altered antioxidant levels in saliva may reflect altered systemic conditions that are associated with aging processes for which oxidative stress plays a crucial role.
The WellLife Check-up starts with the analysis of the antioxidant potential of saliva by means of the deviceless WellLife test, which can be easily performed in less than 2 minutes, providing with the semi-quantitative analysis of the antioxidant power of saliva.
The results are based on a three-levels scale: High, Normal and Low, respectively for high, normal and low antioxidants levels into the saliva.
WellLife Manager is a webbased application that supports pharmacists in preswerving the senior’s well-being over time.
WellLife Manager combines the results of the WellLife Test and of the WellLife Questionnaire, considering situations related to the RedOx balance, and it generates the WellLife Report with indications on how to intervene to mitigate oxidative stress, which underlies a potential risk to develop or exacerbate chronic diseases or unhealthy conditions.
The WellLife Report also provides advices on useful supplements (e.g. food supplements) or lifestyle and habit changes (physical activity, diet, smoking, etc…), depending on the WellLife Check-up results.
Moreover, it also suggests/schedules the next check-up to better monitor the senior’s condition along time.
Such indications can support senior customers with indications about actions, which are required to maintain or restore a proper wellbeing status.
The WellLife Check-up can be performed from time to time, following a longitudinal approach.
The comparison of different WellLife Check-up results performed at different time-points can provide the seniors with a better picture of the effectiveness of an antioxidant treatment, for example, unveiling if the pursued strategy is actively bringing to the desired results or not.
The WellLife Check-up allows you to adequately intervene and the provided advices can help you in reaching the final goal: to preserve your well-being status and slowing down the problems caused by advancing years.
