Age Backwards Wellness Initiative
Reaching Nigerians Before the Emergency Does.
Age Backwards Wellness Initiative is building a national preventive-health movement to help Nigerians identify health risks earlier, make healthier daily choices and reduce the burden of preventable chronic disease.
Nigeria Is Facing a Silent Health Crisis
0
Nigerian adults aged 30–79 are estimated to be living with hypertension.
0
of those with hypertension have it controlled.
0
stroke patients in a major West African study were younger than 50.
0
of Nigerians are now living with diabetes and other chronic metabolic conditions.
Behind every statistic is a family, a career, a business and a future that can be disrupted by preventable illness.
Figures as supplied for this draft — full citations from WHO, the Federal Ministry of Health and peer-reviewed sources will be published on the Research & Data page before launch.
Our approach
We Are Moving Healthcare Upstream
Late intervention
- Symptoms
- Hospitalisation
- Stroke / kidney failure / complications
versus
Early intervention
- Education
- Screening
- Risk identification
- Lifestyle support
- Appropriate referral
Many chronic diseases develop silently for years before a major medical crisis occurs. ABWI focuses on reaching people during that window — while prevention and early action can still make a major difference.
Our core programmes
What We Do
Preventive Health Education
Simple, practical health education designed to help Nigerians understand the everyday factors driving chronic disease and what they can do about them.
Community Health Screenings
Blood pressure, blood glucose, BMI and other basic health-risk assessments, accompanied by health education and appropriate referral.
Pharmacy Wellness Network
Working with community pharmacies as accessible centres for preventive-health information, screening, education and follow-up.
Workplace & Corporate Wellness
Preventive-health programmes designed for organisations seeking healthier employees, reduced preventable illness and stronger workforce productivity.
Age Backwards Community Campaigns
Large-scale public education and community interventions focused on prevention, healthier living and early detection.
Professional Education & Masterclasses
Training pharmacists and other frontline health professionals to strengthen preventive-health and lifestyle-support services.
The Age Backwards Book
A Preventive-Health Blueprint for Every Home
Age Backwards: A Practical Guide to Living Younger & Reversing Chronic Diseases translates health science into clear, practical information people can understand and use in everyday life.
Use it as a household health-education resource, a workplace wellness tool, and a companion to community prevention campaigns. ABWI’s goal is to put preventive-health knowledge into more homes—before health problems become emergencies.
