Create Cures Foundation is a charitable and educational 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to the purpose of finding cures for serious diseases and educating the global community to better understand healthy living based on real sciences. Consistent with the vision of our Founder and President, Prof. Valter Longo, Ph.D., we desire that everyone, including patients without financial means and those with serious illness, have the opportunity to attain a long and healthy life.
The Longevity and Healthspan Clinics of the Create Cures Foundation in Santa Monica, California, and Milan, Italy specialize in helping patients, primary care providers and specialists combine standard of care therapies with integrative science-based approaches focused on nutrition and fasting. While we are dedicated to serious illnesses, including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, neurodegeneration, and autoimmunities, we also focus on disease prevention and education of adults and children on proper nutrition and individual lifestyles that promote healthy longevity.
The Foundation is supported in part by Prof. Valter Longo’s royalties from his books, including the international bestseller, The Longevity Diet.
Prof. Valter Longo, PhD
The Founder of the Create Cures Foundation Clinic
Valter Longo is Professor of Biogerontology and Director of the Longevity Institute of the USC (University of Southern California) School of Gerontology in Los Angeles, one of the most important centers for research on aging and age-related diseases. Professor Longo is also the director of the Longevity and Cancer research program at the IFOM Institute of Molecular Oncology in Milan in Italy.
In 2018 Prof. Longo was named by “Time Magazine” one of the 50 most influential people in the world in the field of health for his research regarding Longevity and the prevention of the most serious diseases.
Our treatment protocols are based on the 5-pillar system and clinical studies of Professor Longo, who proposed that we should focus on the root cause of diseases, rejuvenation and healthy longevity and not only on the treatment of an already advanced stage disease.
