[Prophylaxis against aging in Spain during the first decades of the twentieth century].
This article analyzes the different attitudes toward the fight against old age held by medical professionals in Spain during the first half of the twentieth century. Three clearly differentiated states are identifiable: "helping them to grow old", "curing old age", and "adapting to old age". The final state saw the development of anthropological and social measures.
