Prevention instead of repair

The starting point is the insight that the majority of chronic diseases are not genetically determined but can be influenced by lifestyle and environmental factors. Nutrition, exercise, stress management, social ties and prevention work together as a shield against multimorbidity in old age. The project starts right here and puts prevention at the center of a sustainable understanding of health.

The ten pillars of a healthy life

The focus is on ten key factors that have been proven to influence healthy aging, including:

— healthy diet and adequate hydration

— regular exercise and targeted strength training

— mental health, satisfaction and social contacts

— clean air, strong immune system and risk prevention

— life-long prevention and health education

These factors are not considered in isolation, but as a closely interlinked overall system.

Knowledge understandable, well-founded and suitable for everyday use

The Maria Streibich Foundation does not see itself as a research institution, but as a translator of scientifically based findings. Current studies, data and connections from medicine, epigenetics and public health are presented in an understandable way and translated into concrete guidelines for everyday life. The aim is to empower people to make informed and responsible health decisions.

Health as a shared responsibility

The project follows the ONE Health approach and makes it clear that human health is inextricably linked to the environment, education and social conditions. By raising awareness, education and prevention, the Foundation wants to provide impetus for a change in thinking — towards more healthy life years, fewer preventable diseases and a culture of prevention.
