Let me tell you my story on how I came to discover Preventative Medicine and how this has profoundly changed my life. As a highly competitive sports practitioner, student and later entrepreneur in the tech space, I have been educated to live by the “work hard, play hard” philosophy. Always go the extra mile. Always push myself further beyond my limits. Sleep as little as possible, “I’ll sleep when I’ll be dead”, “sleep is for lazy people”. Just as my prefered actor Arnold Schwarzenegger said, 8 hours of sleep was unacceptable for me, I had to “sleep faster” 🙂 My diet was like anyone else’s among my fellow entrepreneurs, fast food, pizza, irregular lunch and dinner hours. Alcohol at will during parties. Sweet desserts at the end of every meal. When I was practicing physical activity, I always pushed harder, further, longer, until complete exhaustion. My mental state was a highly alert one, on a permanent basis. Phone calls, SMS, Whatsapp messages, people throwing problems at me all the time. When a milestone was reached, nomatter how major it was, there was no time for celebration, I needed to move on to the next one. Long story short, I had

At Ikare, we often hear people say they don’t need help with their Health, they have it covered. There are a couple of versions to their story: All the above are valuable in themselves, and all the people with such a preventative mindset are miles ahead of the ones who look the other way and hope for the better when it comes to their long-term health. However, I usually think of taking care of one’s longevity just as I think of going to the fitness club. Let’s see why these different approaches are sub-optimal: Make no mistake, taking care of your Longevity is a complex endeavour. Either you turn into a “biohacker”, invest a considerable amount of time and effort into it and do it seriously. Either you do it approximatively (and get very approximative results also, maybe benefiting from the placebo effect, where you think you’re taking care of your health, and you get some positive results from it just by believing it). Either you get professional help, such as the one we offer on Ikare.ai.

Preventative Medicine or 6P Medicine is a new fascinating field which allows humans to live significantly longer in good health. Instead of patients waiting to be sick before they visit a doctor, they would visit the doctor while they’re healthy and ask him to keep them that way as long as possible. One of the most legitimate questions to ask when taking Preventative Medicine into consideration, is “WHEN is the best time to start”? The short answer is, without any doubt, NOW. For the longer answer, please read below. We’ve been educated to believe that if we have no pain or unpleasant symptoms, then we are in perfect health by default. The reality is different: our body has tremendous adaptive capabilities, and when it faces stress or imbalance, most of the time it will cope with it in the short term without any external warning signs. However, in the long term, the law of compound interest applies, and small short term imbalances added up day after day, year after year, decade after decade, will end up not being minor anymore. This is where you feel symptoms. This is where you feel pain. When the body can’t address those imbalances anymore,
