2024 Symposium on the Longevity Factor HDL
“Life is short.”
In order to improve the quality of life and be happy, you must be free from disease.
‘Health’ is the biggest issue in an aging society.
The United Nations has set 2021 to 2030 as 10 years for 'healthy aging'.

Major diseases that threaten human health aging
One of the causes of (cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, dementia, peripheral vascular disease, etc.)
This is because as HDL decreases, blood vessels narrow and become blocked.
When the amount and function of HDL decrease around the age of 20,
Cholesterol builds up in the inner lining of the blood vessels, causing them to narrow quickly.
When blood vessels are blocked by more than 70%
Along with symptoms such as high blood pressure, headache, blurred vision, chest tightness, and cold hands and feet
It causes diseases that threaten health.

"Longevity Factor HDL Symposium" is an international symposium organized by YTN science and sponsored by RAYDEL.
This symposium explores various ways to increase the amount and function of longevity factor HDL,
It aims to prevent and improve disease.
Therefore, we gathered HDL researchers who are making excellent achievements around the world in one place.
Through HDL, we want to find ways to improve human health and quality of life together.
