{Abstract}: Elderly people and patients with chronic lifestyle diseases are at risk of being hit harder by environmental influences. Environmental impacts increase the risk of various lifestyle diseases. Biomimetics gives us a unique opportunity to find new treatments for lifestyle diseases and counteract health effects of environmental threats. A biomimetic alliance for better health achieved through cross-disciplinal collaboration may not only contribute to better health but also to a better and more sustainable environment: What is good for the planet is good for our health.
