DENVER, Sep 8, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- In just 50 years, we've seen

the average human life span increase dramatically from 67 to the

current average of 82 - and it's no longer that rare to hear that

someone is turning 100.

New advances in technology and medicine will make what is known

as " extreme longevity " commonplace, according to a leading expert on

anti-aging and life extension therapies, Terry Grossman, M.D.

He is the co-author of the new book, " Fantastic Voyage: The Science

Behind Radical Life Extension, " which will be published by Rodale

this fall. Grossman's co-author is the world-renowned inventor and

futurist Ray Kurzweil.

" Fantastic Voyage " is the second book written by Grossman. In 2000,

he wrote the well-received " The Baby Boomers' Guide to Living

Forever. "

" In our new book, Ray Kurzweil and I make the scientific case that

immortality is within our grasp, " said Grossman. " We explain how to

slow down aging and disease processes to such a degree that you can

remain in good health until the more radical life extending and life-

enhancing technologies - now in the research and testing pipeline -

become available. "

Grossman is the founder and medical director of Denver's Frontier

Medical Institute. Over the course of the past nine years, he has

built it into one of the largest centers of longevity medicine in the

country. Grossman has developed numerous protocols for measuring and

modifying biological age and promoting longevity.

He places an emphasis on intravenous vitamin and nutritional

therapies, as well as other anti-aging therapies. He also utilizes

bio-identical hormone replacement therapy where indicated. An

assistant professor of family practice at the University of Colorado

School of Medicine, Grossman is currently working on a number of

research projects relating to novel treatments for diseases, ranging

from age-related macular degeneration of the eye to coronary heart

disease.

In addition to his two books, Grossman has written numerous articles

for health-related magazines. He has been featured as the keynote

speaker at the First International Congress of Anti-Aging Medicine

(Tokyo Japan), Solal Technologies Anti-Aging Congress (Johannesburg

South Africa), the Japanese Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (Tokyo)

and the Samsung Cheil Hospital Symposium on Anti-Aging Medicine

(Seoul, South Korea).
