When it comes to longevity, it must be a goal that many people dream of. Modern medicine is constantly being developed to extend the life expectancy of the world's population. Through precise treatment Access to quality health services as well as modern medical technology that improve the quality of life in the long term. According to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), between 2000 and 2019, the average life expectancy of the world's population The average lifespan has increased from 66.8 years to 73.4 years, or 6.6 years, reflecting progress in disease care and access to health services in many countries.

The population of the UAE is also facing health challenges in this situation. While the average life expectancy in the UAE is 10 years higher, the average life expectancy is 76.1 years, which is a positive sign reflecting the development of medicine and better access to health services over the years, the latest research shows that the health span of the population in the country is only 66 years old.

In addition, according to statistics from the WHO, more than 6,966,723 people (out of a total population of 9,771,00) or more than 71.3% of the total population are experiencing "obesity", which directly affects long-term health.
