Dr. Steve's Healthy Life is a way of life that promotes living longer in a healthy, productive state (healthspan) as opposed to just living longer.

Healthspan is the amount of time that you live free of disease which can cause impairment and disability. Healthspan is the amount of time that you are alive that you are healthy and can enjoy all the things that you do. Lifespan of course is the time you are simply alive, measured from the time you are born to the time that you die. We all know someone who has lived a long time but had disabilities that caused a less than ideal quality of life.
