PHOENIX, Sept. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- From the moment we are born, we begin to age. What if you had the resources to slow the aging process? What if you had the ability to potentially stave off major diseases, such as heart disease, cancer, arthritis and diabetes?

LifeGuard, affiliated with the Arizona Heart Institute, offers a unique Personalized Healthcare Program that provides these resources to individuals looking to enhance their wellness and longevity. By searching for the cause of diseases and disorders before the symptoms become apparent, LifeGuard is able to provide individuals with the unique opportunity to potentially prevent major diseases thereby living a longer and healthier life.

Aging processes are partially the result of our genetic make-up, and governed by DNA. But aging also is a product of lifestyle -- the food we eat, the way we treat our bodies and the toxins, heavy metals, pollutants, and even pharmaceuticals we encounter on a daily basis. LifeGuard is introducing the latest science of epigenomics to examine how these environmental factors affect the direction of the major determiners of our future health -- our DNA. As we age, hormones become unbalanced, diet and exercise are often abandoned, and toxins accumulate in the body. These imbalances can detrimentally affect our immune, neurological and endocrine systems, resulting in a myriad of symptoms and serious diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes and autoimmune disease.

"At LifeGuard, we outline the fundamentals of your personalized program," said Dr. Dilip Bobra M.D., LifeGuard medical director. "By offering sophisticated imaging technologies combined with laboratory studies that probe much deeper than conventional tests, we are able to evaluate an individual's toxic exposure, nutritional, biochemical and physiological status, paying special attention to the relationship of one body system to another. This allows us to reveal to an individual not only their current health status, but the map of how to live a healthier, longer life void of diseases."

LifeGuard has access to state-of-the-art ultrasound testing and diagnostic imaging, including stroke screening, renal artery assessment, aneurysm assessment, MRI, CT, coronary calcium score testing, and sophisticated biochemical analyses. Through customized personal medicine programs, individuals undergo the unique tests they require. Additionally, because LifeGuard recognizes the enormous power of examining the human genome, DNA is examined to develop the best path for good health.

After evaluation, patients receive a full complement of test results combined with consultation with LifeGuard physicians, and access to necessary pharmaceuticals or nutraceuticals.

"I just feel better, it is as simple as that," said LifeGuard patient Richard Roth. "I truly believe that LifeGuard has changed my life."

LifeGuard is offering free informative lectures to the public to learn more about this distinctive program. To receive a calendar of upcoming events, or to schedule a personalized appointment with LifeGuard, call 602-707-3535.
