How Ageless Living wellness centres can help you live a healthier, longer life

Michael Forbes is a seasoned entrepreneur with a successful track record in the medical industry. Graduating from the University of British Columbia with a BSc in Pharmaceutical Sciences, Michael began his career shortly after as a compounding pharmacist, developing treatments through a combination of drugs to deliver a more tailored experience for his clients.

Conventional hormone therapies at the time, particularly for menopause, relied on substances like estrogen extracted from horse urine — later confirmed to increase cancer risks. Forbes turned to bioidentical hormones as a safer alternative derived from natural sources. Moreover, these compounds could not be patented by pharmaceutical companies, making them a more cost-effective and accessible solution.

As his compounding pharmacy grew, he realized a gap in the healthcare system: a lack of doctors trained in bioidentical hormone therapy. Determined to fill the void, he began sending doctors to specialized training programs in the US — planting the seeds for the Ageless Living wellness centres.

Over the past decade, Ageless Living — with locations in Langley, Kelowna, and Victoria — has grown into a cutting-edge practice focused on disease prevention, longevity medicine, weight management, and recovery. Forbes rejects the reactionary model where ailments are diagnosed only once discovered; Ageless Living champions a proactive strategy built on early diagnosis and prevention.

“As cancer risks rise, being diagnostic and preventative is the key to a long and healthy life,” Forbes emphasizes. His mission is deeply personal: to help people live their best, healthiest lives and leave the world a better place. His dedication to advancing medical practices through personalized, preventative care is more than just a business — it’s a commitment to a healthier future for all.
