ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--I hope I die before I get old, sang “The Who” front man Roger Daltrey in the song, “My Generation” in 1965, and 51 years later, that sentiment regarding the indignities of aging still hits home to millions.
Since the beginning of time, people have been obsessed with the process we call aging. And while people are living longer today than in any other time in history, most refer to aging with angst, searching for the latest “miracle” cream, lotion or potion, even acupuncture and anti-aging hypnosis, to help stop aging. However, the experts say the best way to age well, is to live well now.
Endocrinology and Aging or “The Taper,” is one of the many in-depth symposia being offered at the AACE 25th Annual Scientific & Clinical Congress in Orlando, May 25-29. The session’s speakers will discuss their latest research and findings on how endocrine-specific conditions such as diabetes, obesity, sarcopenia or muscle mass, hormone health, and thyroid disorders affect the way we age.
Endocrinologist Peter A. Singer, MD, of Los Angeles is the session’s chair, and will participate in a press briefing with others on Friday, May 27, at 12:45 p.m. at the Annual Meeting’s host hotel, Rosen Shingle Creek Resort Orlando.
