Each of the Health Centers is a gateway to one of our information banks devoted to specific health topics or a group of related health topics.

Coverage

The information banks are characterized by the breadth and depth of the coverage of the topics. In particular, topics are reviewed from a variety of angles, ranging from maintaining health - through the adjustment of lifestyle patterns - on the one hand to restoring health on the other.

Ease of access

With just a couple of clicks you can access current health news, recent reports, reviews or in-depth articles. Similarly, you can rapidly obtain precise information on health products and use on-line self-assessment tools. You can also have a specific question about health topics answered by a health professional, under full confidentiality, through our "Ask Our Helpline" service.

Sources

The information about health topics on our site has been carefully selected from major medical journals, or provided by leading universities and health research centers on aging around the world, such as Harvard Medical School, Johns Hopkins University, Tufts University, and Baylor College of Medicine.

Follow-up

At the end of each item you have the opportunity to print it out and also to send it to a friend's e-mailbox. If you have registered with My HealthandAge, you can add it to your "preferred list". You can also let us have your opinion about the item - we welcome your feedback.

Now go ahead and select your particular Health Center from the menu on the right.
