I should have thought about this when I was thirty.

We usually get used to treating our health as something indispensable and integral. It's only noticeable during a cold or injury, and other health symptoms begin to appear at 35 and older. Unfortunately, most of the conditions that bother us after 35 aren't diseases in the literal sense of the word—they're conditions of wear and tear, the depletion of tissues and organs. I think it's clearer to compare them to the lifespan of an engine or the lifespan of a suspension.
Over the past 20-30 years, scientific research on eternal life, eternal youth, eternal health, and so on has been gaining momentum. I won't speculate on what eternal life will lead to, because every expert knows exactly what that means.
It's interesting to try to adjust your sights again from my perspective. This may seem more feasible, understandable, and holistic than "going to the doctor" for health.
Medicine fundamentally knows nothing about tissue wear and tear—cartilage, nerves, the retina, intervertebral discs. At best, it offers you a replacement for the worn-out part with a crudely crafted copy that can't even boast 50% bioequivalence.
The goal of medical science, of course, is to preserve the body's ability to reproduce its own tissues. For this, there are "accelerators and decelerators."
As for us "still mortals," we have genetics, environmental conditions, and our own lifestyle. Lifestyle rules our health. Nutrition, breathing, exercise, stress balance—all of this will preserve your hormonal balance and immunity better than any pills or surgeries, and will delay the onset of any disease by 15 or even 20 years.
