From Sick to Super-Human

Future health trends -- driven by population, age, gender, location, wealth, culture, government policy -- above all by emotion. Impact of demographics on growth in demand for health care in every nation, from treating illness and disease, to health promotion, disease prevention, wellness and performance-based medicine. Enhancing performance -- whether sexual performance, mental performance (students or older people with Alzheimer's disease / memory impairment / loss). Impact of ageing and obesity on consumer health spending, government budgets, health care, workforce and retirement age. New effective treatment for Alzheimers will be the ultimate blockbuster drug in developed nations with older populations.
