According to the Asia Pacific Risk Center( 
https://www.mmc.com/content/dam/mmc-web/Files/APRC/APRC%20Ageing%20report%20FULL.pdf), 
Asia Pacific is the fastest aging region in the world with over 200 million 
people expected to move into the ranks of the elderly (aged 65 years and above) 
between 2016 and 2030. In addition, the United Nations World Population Age 
Report 2017 ( 
https://www.un.org/en/development/desa/population/publications/pdf/ageing/WPA2017_Highlights.pdf) 
estimated that by 2050, older persons aged 60 and above will make up 24 percent 
of the population in Asia, outnumbering adolescents and youths between the ages 
of 10 to 24 by 2.1 billion to 2.0 billion. 

With rapidly aging populations bringing unprecedented socio-economic 
challenges, Herbalife Nutrition recognized the need for Asia Pacific consumers 
to start taking urgent steps towards healthy aging. Based on findings from the 
Herbalife Nutrition 2018 Asia Pacific Healthy Aging Survey, 92 percent of 
respondents in Asia Pacific believe that active steps can be taken to help them 
age healthily. Among this group, 81 percent believe they can age healthily by 
making better nutrition choices, and 75 percent said this can be achieved 
through regular physical activity.

"While growing older is inevitable, the increased discomfort that comes with 
aging is not. With advancements in science and nutrition, we hope to help 
consumers understand that reductions in bodily functions and mobility as a 
result of aging can be delayed by making positive lifestyle changes earlier on 
in life. This latest Asia Pacific Wellness Tour not only brings some of our 
best nutrition experts to the region, it also provides an empowering platform 
for them to share best practices in nutrition and lifestyle habits with 
consumers, to support their healthy aging journeys," said Stephen Conchie, 
Senior Vice President and Managing Director, Asia Pacific, Herbalife Nutrition. 

During the Tour, Herbalife Nutrition experts and members of the Herbalife 
Nutrition Advisory Board (NAB) will share healthy living habits with consumers 
across Asia Pacific. With a focus on fostering digestive health, heart health, 
bone health, joint health and brain health through making simple nutrition and 
lifestyle changes, the experts will be sharing principles on cellular science 
and personalized nutrition to help consumers age healthily for the long term.
