- Abstract
Longevity health sciences and mental health are fields of public health and of preventive and integrative medicine. The antagonism between health construction and human pathology is substantiated by two opposite fundamental pathways: the health–longevity tetrad versus the aging–disease cascade. It is necessary that the current paradigm of contemporary medicine be replaced by the advanced paradigm of future medicine. A societal cost–benefit rate is decisive for health–longevity promotion. This is why the WHO public health strategy keeps forwarding the societal medical target into the global health–longevity field.
