    What causes aging? According to Professor David Sinclair, it is a loss of information in our epigenome, the system of proteins like histones and chemical markers like methylation that turn on and off genes. Epigenetics allow different cell types to perform their specific functions - they are what differentiate a brain cell from a skin cell. Our DNA is constantly getting broken, by cosmic rays, UV radiation, free radicals, x-rays and regular cell division etc. When our cells repair that damage, the epigenome is not perfectly reset. And hence over time, noise accumulates in our epigenome. Our cells no longer perform their functions well.
    To counter this decline, we can activate the body's own defenses against aging by stressing the body. Eat less, eat less protein, engage in intense exercise, experience uncomfortable cold. When the body senses existential threats it triggers longevity genes, which attempt to maintain the body to ensure its survival until good times return. This may be the evolutionary legacy of early bacteria, which established these two modes of living (repair and protect vs grow and reproduce). Scientists are uncovering ways to mimic stresses on the body without the discomfort of fasting. Molecules like NMN also trigger sirtuins to monitor and repair the epigenome. This may slow aging.
    Reversing aging requires an epigenetic reset, which may be possible using Yamanaka factors. These four factors can revert an adult cell into a pluripotent stem cell. Prof. Sinclair used three of the four factors to reverse aging in the retinal cells of old mice. He found they could see again after the treatment.

      Good luck getting the Metformin (it's prescription only), but that's what the Resveratrol is for.
      NMN = Sirtuin pathway
      Resveratrol = AMPk pathway
      Eat less red meat = mTOR pathway
      Of course plenty of water & physical activity cannot be substituted, but you asked his daily routine. And yes I've been doing all three for a little while now. 😉
      Tips: Resveratrol is cheap and plentiful. Get some. NMN is ... sometimes pricey. My advice is to source it well. It's a special form of Vitamin B3 found in things like cabbage, avocado, broccoli. Of course you can't eat 1,000 avocados in a day, so you buy the NMN. Physically it is a white crystalline powder with a slightly bitter taste and very soluble in water. Also eating less red meat is free and might even save you money. I recommend upping your plant protein instead (peanut butter, cashew butter, sunflower butter, almond butter, things like avocado, hummus etc....)
      Pretty sure the good doctor also likes his fish & chicken. He doesn't abstain from meat entirely. Just make a burger, steak or ground chuck an occasion thing, rather than a daily or weekly thing.

Professors at my university used to tell the class how reckless his action was, but fast forward 12 years it looks like his self-medication is working.

      He found out eventually, it was through warts. Despite being sick, he continued writing detailed descriptions of how the disease develops from inoculation, even through fever and delirium.
      He died a few weeks after.

    So if i am understanding correctly, the goal of intermittent fasting and amino acids restriction is to make your body believe you are in a dangerous environment, activating your longevity genes responsible for repairing the parts of your cell that represent your age. the longer your body stays in longevity mode, the longer your epigenome preserves your age. That would explain why monks in temples without air conditioning who eat intermittently and very little, also have longer lifespans and healthier bodies. I can't wait to see how this research develops. Please keep us updated i would love to see more on this topic.

      I didn't say critical thinking leads to guaranteed failure. I said pessimism does. What's more, how does one get 'scammed' simply by believing in a better future for humanity? Hopes can certainly be crushed by failure - but other than being let down I can't see how any harm could come of being optimistic for a better tomorrow. It's not as if I donated to them or anything. I lose nothing by encouraging progress here.
      But cool, continue to be condescending.. fine by me buddy. It won't help get anything constructive accomplished though. And I know for a goddamn fact I'm more intelligent than you are. Lol. :)
      The science is there. Nothing is completely impossible unless you make it so by assuming things are hopeless and giving up. We just need to use our intelligence to our advantage and create solutions. It's not 'too good to be true'. It's just complicated as hell and hasn't been done yet. There is a clear difference. There are real people working towards real scientific answers each day. No one wants to die, so you can bet they are giving it their absolute best effort.
      I am not saying defeating aging is easy or going to happen overnight but it should be possible when the right minds come together and all the biological puzzle pieces are made to fit just right. The scientists behind this research aren't getting paid to sit around drawing doodles in a notebook. They are working day and night to figure it out. And yes - that means certain individuals or companies may have to sponsor them or fund their work. That is the cost of progress. Some goals outweigh whatever misgivings you may have about the end results. It should still be attempted.
      With time and clinical trials I have no doubt this research will provide more insight and therapies to extend lifespan. But that's why people with this mindset are not working on these projects. To them it's all science fiction and not worth their time. That's for the best anyway - I doubt there is any room for close-minded individuals on the team.

But the part for aerobic respiration (the super efficient one which requires oxygen) is completed in the mitochondria. So yes it is the powerhouse, but it's actually a lot more completed, plus some bacteria and other cellular lifeforms don't need mitochondria, which would be like using a phone without a battery as a powerhouse of the cell, so yes but actually no

      Yeah sorry, the realistic view of anti-aging research. If they were developed properly into working anti-aging treatments in humans, such gene therapies are going to be incredibly expensive, and thus are going to overwhelmingly benefit wealthy people... The world is going to continue mistreating and exploiting working-class people and those in the global south etc., whilst wealthy families will be allowed to live for hundreds upon hundreds of years. It's literally taking us closer to a sci-fi dystopia setting. The people who will be able to afford this therapy best will be the ones who already cause so much damage to the world.

      Please do not apply these advice without further scientific evidence. Some scientists pointed out flaws in his work and we really shouldn't play with our epigenomic while we still know so little about it. A correlation has been found between heart diseases in descendants and ancestors undertaking starvation. I know all of that is exciting but don't jump to conclusions and wait for the scientific community to express its opinion. Your health is at stake, be wary !

Obviously they had discovered some attributes that lead to longer lifespans. During his life mine slept for most of every day only making an effort to be awake when I came home after school. When mine finally died my brother quipped "How can you tell?".
