As a result, a new term was introduced in the language in 2005 called “healthspan”. Formally, healthspan is defined as The period of a person’s life during which they are generally healthy and free from serious or chronic illness. The increased lifespan becomes irrelavant if your healthspan does not increase in proportion to your lifespan.
