What Does Preventative Health Mean At Your Age

So, let’s talk about what preventative care means for you based on your age…

Have you ever wondered how preventative care should change as you age?

Preventative care isn’t a one-size-fits-all; it changes as we age. From routine exams for young adults to cancer screenings for adults, and chronic condition management for seniors, it’s a lifelong journey interconnected in many ways.

Unfortunately, many people either forget to adjust their care as they age or overlook its value when they’re younger—and this can significantly impact their health later in life.

But I don’t want you to suffer in your senior years. I don’t want you to be unable to live life because you didn’t take care of your body the way you should have when you were in your younger years.

So, if your goal is not just to grow old, but to enjoy doing it, join me for another episode of Medicine Mondays as we discuss how preventative care varies and why it’s crucial to take it seriously from an early age.

Notable Quotes:

“A confused soul [or] a confused person doesn’t make a decision. So, if you’re confused at what you should do, guess what? You don’t even make the decision to go to the doctor, [and] you don’t make the decision to ask for the test, because you’re not even sure what you’re supposed to be asking for.” – Dr. Berry Pierre

“If we take care of this age group here, it saves us a lot more money down the long run…When we don’t take care of this age group here, when we start talking about our other age groups, we’re having to play catch up, it’s more expensive because we’re playing catch up, and more people die because we’re playing catch up.” – Dr. Berry Pierre

“Once you understand what that means for you, all of a sudden, you’re not a confused person anymore. You’ll have so much clarity when it comes to your health.” – Dr. Berry Pierre
