Nature has given us the ability to live a healthy and productive life until the age of 120 years, but very few people reach this age in good health, mainly because their lifestyle increases the chances of early ageing and disease. However, it is possible to reduce our chances of disability in later life by making some sensible changes to our way of living.

The BLS highlights the advances in antiageing medicine to help prevent diseases and disorders to improve everyone’s optimal health span.

Learn how you and your family can benefit from FREE membership of the BLS to discover the future of preventative medicine and learn how advances in the understanding of biochemistry can be applied today to allay, alleviate, slow or reverse diseases and disorders associated with ageing.

Next BLS Meeting Monday 22, September; Melatonin- the wonder molecule

The next British Longevity Society meeting is on Monday 22 September, 2008 (doors open at 7pm and talk starts at 8pm) at the HB Health Centre, 48 Harley Street, London.

The evening will be informal and after a 30 minute lecture the floor will be open, giving you the opportunity to ask questions to expert(s).

The next BLS meeting will host Dr. Walter Pierpaoli who will talk about the wonder molecule melatonin.

This is an opportunity to meet one of the foremost antiageing researchers and physicians in the world today. Dr. Pierpaoli was responsible for the discovery of melatonin and its central role in the ageing process.

It is well known that melatonin is produced in response to darkness and many have discussed its benefits for sleep disorders and jet lag etc., but the work of Dr. Pierpaoli, (which was initially published in the best-selling book, the melatonin miracle), has highlighted that it has many potent properties.

Just some of these include improved fertility, age related macular degeneration, stress and anxiety control, anti-depression, alleviation of menopause symptoms, anti-cancer properties and more. This is your opportunity to meet personally with Dr. Pierpaoli and discover why one molecule can have had so many clinically proven effects.

Dr. Pierpaoli’s lecture at the BLS will be following on from his lecture at the London Antiageing Conference, so is expected to be busy.

Even if you can’t make this event, we strongly recommend that you become a member of the BLS in order to be able to be at future events with equally exciting speakers and topics.

Light refreshments will be provided; we kindly request a £10 donation to help cover the expenses of the evening.

We recommend that you contact us by email, as soon as possible with your name and telephone number, so that we can reserve your seat. Due to health and safety we are limited to a maximum number of 40-persons. Please note that provision will be strictly on a first-come, first-served basis, but naturally BLS members will receive priority.

Membership is FREE!
