This is acknowledging the truth : you are > getting old... It sucks, but it is a fact. This is true; Traditional won't make you immortal. However, the goal of medical TCM at least, is for each person to live completely within their alloted timespan, and to do so without the severe debilitation of " old age " .

According to Yang Sheng Lun (Treatise on Health Preservation), a book written in the third century A.D., the maximum life span for human beings is 120 years. Modern estimates based on division of pulmonary fibroblasts put the span of human life at about 110 years.
