Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If current therapies are used for age-related maladies, then treatment is provided, but the therapies are inadequate in effectively addressing cognitive impairment, muscle strength loss, balance issues, and oxidative stress
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple therapeutic agents into a single composition: unsaturated fatty acids (for cognitive function and oxidative stress), nitric oxide releasing compounds (for muscle strength and balance), anti-glycation agents (for oxidative stress), and colostrum (for immune function). This merging approach creates a comprehensive therapy that simultaneously addresses multiple age-related maladies that current single-therapy approaches fail to treat effectively.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a composition with multiple components is used, then comprehensive coverage of age-related maladies is achieved, but the complexity of the composition increases
Solution Approach 1:
Each component in the composition serves multiple functions: unsaturated fatty acids address both cognitive impairment and oxidative stress; nitric oxide releasing compounds address both muscle strength loss and balance issues; anti-glycation agents reduce oxidative stress while preventing glycation damage; colostrum enhances immune function while providing growth factors. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate therapies for each condition, simplifying the overall treatment approach despite the multiple components.
