In the long and healthy life (longevity) discussion, two concepts are separated. Lifespan is calendar age; healthspan is the period in which function is preserved and independence and quality of life are maintained. VascularVita’s focus is healthspan.
Vascular health
Microcirculation, endothelial function, and arterial compliance determine tissue perfusion. When perfusion is impaired, repair capacity falls. Wound healing and organ reserve meet at this point; vascular ageing is one of the core topics in the longevity literature.
For clinical assessment, see Dr. Kadir Çeviker’s articles on leg artery occlusion and critical limb ischemia.
Tissue renewal
Exosome and related approaches are being studied within cellular communication and tissue repair. For conceptual boundaries, see what an exosome is and is not and what regenerative medicine is; for the institutional frame, long and healthy life; for product scope, the stem cell and exosome pages.
