A number of determining factors are studied in a<br />

bid to keep patients active and healthy: economic<br />

factors, social behaviour, physical environment,<br />

proximity of health services, etc.<br />

The human body is at its peak at age 25, and<br />

the age at which all its metabolisms break down is<br />

50: mid-life. So, what factors affect longevity?<br />

1. Intelligence: If you develop your intelligence,<br />

you are better able to adapt to your environment.<br />

2. Social status: If you have a good social life, you<br />

are more productive. 3. Hormones: Treating the<br />

menopause or andropause can help you avoid<br />

many ailments. 4. Security: A peaceful environment<br />

lowers your stress levels. 5. Physical activity: Vital,<br />

whatever form its takes!<br />

“We can control how we age, our genes. The most<br />

common causes of death could be avoided in 50%<br />

of cases: cancer, diabetes, stroke, Alzheimer’s,<br />

suicide. With iPaam, we closely monitor the following<br />

parameters: physical activity, energy absorbed,<br />

emotions, food supplements and targeted medicines,<br />

genetics, etc.” explains Dr Claude Dalle.<br />

We all want to live a long life, but living a long and<br />

healthy life is even better!<br />

Integrative medicine is developing rapidly. Now, a<br />

heap of certified codes have been developed that are<br />

designed to keep our body and mind as healthy as<br />

possible. iPaam uses all of the data available all over<br />

the world.<br />

Life expectancy is on the increase all over the globe,<br />

apart from in Europe. Why? Because, in Europe, we have<br />

not yet adopted preventative medicine. “We wait until<br />

we’re ill to get treatment,” says Dr Claude Dalle. “iPaam<br />

will primarily be used to reduce morbidity and lengthen<br />

life expectancy while maintaining a good quality of life.<br />

This is the aim of contemporary medicine.”<br />

iPaam is a type of P4 medicine: predictive (what<br />

might happen in the future), preventative (how to<br />

pre-empt any risk factors), participative (the patient<br />

is aware of the health parameters that will be useful<br />

to them) and personalised (namely through data<br />

collection, the famous “big data”). The intended goal<br />

is homeostasis: improving the human body, helping<br />

it to repair itself, and eliminating any aging cells.<br />

“In 2050, more than 5 million French people<br />

will be over the age of 85. Life expectancy for<br />

65-year-olds is now 20 years: 10 years with variable<br />

health and 10 years with decreasing independence.<br />

Women can expect to be in good health until<br />

they are 64.1 years old, while for men it drops<br />

to 62.7 years. 50% of cancers occur over the age<br />

of 70. But, we can alter these figures: genetic<br />

factors only count for 25% and some believe that<br />

we are nearer to 8% for purely genetic factors, the<br />

rest being epigenetic (gene modification by the<br />

environment),” explains Dr Eric Plot. He says,<br />

“This is where the notion of exposome comes<br />

in, that is, all of the things we are exposed to as<br />

humans. This goes a long way towards explaining<br />

how we age: climate change, endocrine disruptors,<br />

pesticides, etc. iPaam seeks to address these<br />

environmental factors and help us put some<br />

preventative measures in place.”<br />

iPaam is a connected platform available to doctors<br />

who want to offer their patients a comprehensive<br />

anti-aging consultation. iPaam represents more<br />

than 30 years of knowledge integrated into<br />

an advanced diagnostic tool that is correlated<br />

with artificial intelligence programmes.<br />
