D.A.M.S. - Introduction to a Disruptive Aging Paradigm for Strengthening Longevity and Improving Quality of Life
"Starting with the gloomy picture of the aging process as
penned by Solomon in Ecclesiastes 12, this theoretical paper
challenges commonly held beliefs based on life expectancy tables that
the last decade of a senior’s life is destined to be an existence spent
in distress, disability, diminished faculties and a declension in the
overall quality of life. Based on habits of longevity as identified by
various researchers, the D (Diet) A (Activity) M (Mental attitude) S
(Social/Spiritual connectivity) paradigm is introduced as a
conceptual model founded on biblical principles and validated by
current scientific research, for the promotion of an extended life filled
with higher quality throughout the golden years."
