For the patients with diabetes, basal daily lifestyle would be considered in the light of meal, exercise, rest, alcohol intake, smoking and oral health. These six factors are from the concept as a basic direction of “Health Japan 21” for comprehensive implementation
of national health promotion.1 Satisfactory control of lifestyle can lead to protection and treatment of diabetes and successful
anti-aging. From this implication, to check up physical and mental condition would be important and helpful in clinical practice.
Concerning Anti-Aging Medicine (AAM), Kahn and Rowe formerly initiated in 1980-90’s, proposing successful aging. After that, AAM has been developed in the world for decades until today.2,3 Currently, clinical importance of AAM includes not only
to maintain healthy condition and to protect diseases, but also to promote activities of daily living (ADL) and quality of life (QoL), leading to long and significant lives.4 Furthermore, adequate judgement and development of AAM would be also considered in the light of medical, social, economical, and ethical aspects
