More life - Decoding the secret of aging | DW Documentary
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
- Can the aging process be reversed - or even halted, altogether? If we manage to decode this final mystery of our human biology, we might soon be able to eradicate age-related illnesses like cancer, dementia and heart problems.
The race to invent the miracle pill is well underway. Today, international researchers are getting astonishingly close to realizing humanity’s dream of immortality.
The hunt for immortality gained traction with the discovery of Costa Rica’s so-called "Blue Zone,” by Luis Rosero-Bixby. In the "Blue Zone,” on the Nicoya Peninsular, he found a remarkable number of centenarians. Here, male life expectancy is the highest in the world. Their healthy lifestyle is one factor, but the promise of longevity is probably also because their telomeres - sections of DNA found at the end of chromosomes - are longer than those of the average person.
It’s a field of research currently being explored by Maria Blasco in Madrid. But this is just one of many possible factors influencing the process of aging. Senescent cells may also play a key role. Also known as "zombie cells”, these attack our body in old age and flood it with alarm signals until, at some point, we collapse under their weight. That’s a theory proposed by another researcher in Spain, Manuel Serrano.
A billion-dollar industry is already knocking impatiently at the lab doors. The first to market the miracle pill is guaranteed incredible wealth. That’s why investors are sponsoring young bio-startups in Hong Kong. Keen not be left out, US Big Tech is vying for the world’s best scientists. Alex Zhavoronkov has secured a slice of that pie, with a cash injection of more than 250 million dollars for his company’s work on aging research.
Whereas some pioneers’ visions burst like bubbles, others rush to get other, rather more dubious products onto the market. But their efficacy is now measurable. The epigenetic clock devised by Steve Horvath can measure our biological age, regardless of our actual age in years.
With his research on the thymus gland, California’s Greg Fahy managed to not only decelerate the aging process, but reverse it. His initial study on humans showed that a particular drug cocktail took an average two-and-a-half years off their age.
Young biohackers like Nina Khera from Boston want everyone to benefit from this research. Together with friends, she’s working on the "epigenetic clock for all”.
But while we’re busy trying to counter the aging process and all the illnesses it entails, fundamental questions arise: Should we be messing with nature like this? Are we about to overwhelm the planet with more and more people? Criminal biologist Mark Benecke in Cologne says that these questions are coming far too late.

Well done!
That's my boys DW team i knew you were gonna make it you people doing great for the world
This research is so full of BS I can't stop laughing...especially when little kids are talking like they know everything when in reality they don't...Fake to the core!!!
Great documentary! congratulations! I knew already all the information, because I also study it for many years now. Nonetheless, i saw it until the end with interest!
Wonderful.
I'm 75 now but years of poverty and high stress have surely affected me. When I was a kid I received a weekly allowance that I saved carefully in order to buy books that I wanted. I was always a stellar reader. However, I was never athletic how ever hard I tried. My mother died when I was young and life became a world of stress with idiot caretakers and boring jobs. It's only recently that I've had the income to live as I've always wanted--or even thought I deserved. I am not wealthy by any means but I now have money that I will spend on my Mexican friend's daughter's college education. I will be gone but this young woman will be my legacy although I won't live to see it. I am proud of my accomplishments but those are not monetary. I have serious medical problems now but believe that I have lived a miserable yet wonderful life. Experiences beyond our comfort zones keep us young.
Does the void frighten u young weather u live to be a 1000 or 75 ur fate is inevitable
I can say similar things about my own life. I’m in my early 70’s. But I radically changed my health and life expectancy after a life threatening illness and disability five years ago. I hope you can do the same.

Wow! As a 51 year old full-time single disabled father raising/raised my 4 AMAZING kids on my own all by myself and BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING grandkids as well. I suffer from & struggle with sickle cell anemia disease and avascular necrosis syndrome causing countless joint replacement surgeries with both knees,right hip,and both of my shoulders next to be replaced with titanium as well!

It's ok wanting to be here for as long for your family but if you are in constant pain and has no quantity of life what would the point be in that I rather die on my own terms not no doctors if I have something serious wrong with me and be endless pain than I don't want to be alive not even for my family why should I be a burden on my family either

4 mil subs they have TEAMS making this it's basically a company funded by UA-cam
@@julesking8355 it's actually not fully funded by youtube. They are a big news Channel like others and have big investors. UA-cam sure can make them money but doesn't even come close to being 50% of their funding
Because they went to the school and helped humanity in the longer run unlike you
DW (Deutsche Welle) is a state owned TV channel in Germany funded by the German government. It's like the BBC which is funded by the British government. This is basically a documentary made for TV which they have put on UA-cam.

My Italian grand-MIL lived on her own and never stopped “going” (on her own) until 93. She suddenly went downhill and went into a care home and died just a few months after turning 94. I think she was there 4 months… she died from an undiscovered septic infection of just a few days. It took her quickly; she lived through 2 pandemics: when she was a child and covid.
She ate everything, but not too much of anything, and was always active. I really think activity is a big key (there are stairs *everywhere* in Italy, there’s no escaping them), no matter the diet (and genetics!). She farmed, worked the land (olive, almond and citrus trees plus tomatoes and other vegetables), canned her own tomatoes/sauce, made her own pasta. She didn’t eat a lot of meat or cheese but lots of fruits, vegetables, beans, lots of nuts, olives & olive oil of course, breads/pastas and typical Italian spices of oregano, rosemary, garlic, etc.
RIP Bisnonna 🪦 💕

my grandma is 92 and lives on her own, she still grows some vegies herself in her small piece of land, she does amazing art crafts as a pass time which she's been doing for decades. she doesn't follow any diet and isn't particularly active, she lived through two wars and had witnessed her whole family wealth being taken away by the commies, then she lived a very hard life as a farmer and had 6 children, I can imagine the stress level was sky high. I know people in her region who's been drinking and smoking their whole lives and lived healthily into their 90s, think genes play a big part in it.
Thankyou for sharing your story about grandmother. Timothy from Australia.
Plus, though she ate "everything," it was probably all real food. None of this ultra-processed "food."
In a nursing home the other day I met a gentleman with various disabilities and mobility issues aged 75. But I imagine my amazement when I discovered his *mother* was also a resident at the same nursing home, frail but bright as a button age 97!
@@tamarausher60 Not sure whether mother or son was admitted first. I think they were probably admitted together as she could no longer care for him, and he has learning dis.
They're both lovely.
These teens give me a glimmer of hope. They are articulate and so very bright. Way to go !!!! 🔥💕🎉
Quite the contrary : even those kids interested in longevity eat cheerios for their breakfast.
evidently , eating cheerios helps. with banana of course .
These kids are amazing! This is where youths consciousness should be going, science not selfies!
But, but what if your social media revolve around science?, and that guy, the one who make himself into a guinea pig, he need to take a lot of selfies, thats some real data right there.
lol, 15 year old aging guru's, im just laughing
i agree!
@@budgetking2591 you won't be when you become 70! Perhaps you will be grateful for these caring, concerned, bright youngsters.
@@kirstinstrand6292 That kid in the video was basically selling a product you could get thru a blood or urine test at your family doctor’s office. Nothing out of the ordinary.
Paraphrasing from 34:00 - 'Guys like Amazon, Netflix, video game companies will invest in longevity so you have more time... to waste on their products.'
That one hits hard.
That researcher struck me as missing the point. Why live longer if it isn’t quality life? He made a dismissive comment about blue zones as well, as though factors like perhaps closer social networks and living in nature weren’t important. Sure I get the allure of a fancy biotech solution, but he ignores the humanity aspects.
He came across more like a used car salesman, a little slimey...
I think growing and then eating that food makes a world of difference…it’s connection…everything is connected and they add themselves to that connection it looks like. I wish them all well🥰
Peaceful.. stress free life.. that's a tough one in this modern world of cities, jobs to sustain us, society etc etc. Fantastic documentary! Thank you..
I agree. Less music also may contribute to less aging, and aging more slowly. It’s quiet, relaxing and much less noise. No ridiculous talking or screaming for nonsense entertainment.
Another insightful documentary by DW. Seeing these kids engaged in something other than taking selfies or wanting to be the next social media star, gives me (a little) more hope for the future of humanity. Thanks very much for posting and be safe 🙏
Amen 🙏 to that. They are much more physical and no fast food restaurants That is brought up there
Don't underestimate the new generation. It also depends on the parents and social background
Is that’s what you think we do, Boomer? 👁👄👁
Lead a peaceful, stress free life. Spoken like a Zen master.
Would be good to see follow up in year or two as to evolution of this research space 🙏🏼ThankYou great documentary

my dad who was a war veteran passed away days short of his ninety eighth birthday. he struggled with dementia at that time but passed peacefully and had a good life. My mom is still here and she is also ninety eight now and has had alzheimer's for many years. me, i'm fifty nine and trying to get by like everyone. chances are i'll be around for a lot longer but given the state of things today not sure if I want to. at least my parents and I had some sort of thing to look forward too. now I fear my parents sacrifices may be all for not. Because of them though I can never give up.
Mine made it to 92 and 94. Father kept asking me to sneak in an extension cord so he could jump in the tub and mother had a massive stroke with a lost mind and in a wheelchair for four years. I'm 59 and when I want to go, I'm going to poke a grisly in it's den with a short stick mid winter.
Your best bet is to stop eating crappy foods and start eating and cooking fresh, if not doing so already.
My maternal grandmother passed away at 105... Her younger sister is now 105 while their youngest brother is 103.. my maternal grandfather died at 100... All of the deceased and those alive have very good memories, eyesight... Just a bit hard of hearing. My mom is 76 and still going strong... She's like a 60 year old... 😁
I hope I have these genes. On my dad's side, people die relatively young.. average age of 75... my dad passed away at 77 due to Alzheimer's
@@kirstinstrand6292 I stopped eating at the golden arches years ago and I love fresh food. Thanks my friend and have a good day.
I always thought I would make it to 80-90 but now 120+. After an injury in 2017 and a trip to the hospital they told me my blood sugar was high and asked me if I was diabetic. This threw me because I thought I was in great shape for 49 at the time. I haven't had health insurance since 2008 but I haven't needed it either so this revelation sent me on a mission to learn about my diagnosis. This led me to prolonged fasting, keto and intermittent fasting etc. I started taking cold showers, doing breathing exercises, reduced alcohol to almost non-existent and of course my keto diet combined with OMAD. Blood levels normalized almost immediately, eye sight improved, hair grew in thicker, dropped ten pounds (190-180), became incredibly lean and my skin became clearer and looked much younger. At 54 I am in better shape than I was at 34, I look around 40 and feel great. I am constantly learning and tweaking things to see what works best for me. I haven't taken anything other than regular vitamins and collagen peptide powder for my coffee. I thoroughly scrutinize these items and even research the food sources and organic claims. I am still working on my sleep but I am working on cutting alcohol completely and reducing stress which are the leading two causes to my lack of sleep and aging currently. I appreciate your content and look forward to seeing more.
I am so happy to live as long as, I am mentally and physically healthy and can afford to support myself.
I have no desire to battle disease or be mentally unproductive and neither do I want to eat cat food because that is all that there is on the shelf; that I have the resources (savings and pensions and 401 plans last only so long) to provide the purchase of.
Currently, I am marching forward to 70 (nearly there) I have gone to the gym 4 days per week since I was 30, I still work a 45-hour-per-week contract and most people think I am in my 40s.
For me, it has always been diet and exercise.
The twin that said the test revealed he was biologically 4 years older than his brother actually did look older in my opinion. Also side note; that Thymus man really looks great for 71! 🤯
No kidding! I was thinking he was maybe 50 or so.
@OVERwhelmed epigenetic aging clock. But its validity varies depending on who you get it from, I would take a look at Dr Morgan Levine's new book 'True Age'. Also the type of clock you want will be different to most, if you're looking for chronological age that is (there is still some error margin, so you won't be able to get date of birth, but maybe you can get the year).
I really have to say DW is the best. coming out with exceptional quality of documentaries that can change human life.. i share many of these youtube links with my social media friends.. awesome..
DW documentaries are an epitome in quality of content and coverage. Thank you so much and this is all free. This should be mandatory viewing in schools and colleges.
DW has always been my destination for authentic knowledge on almost every topic. Keep doing what you do folks , we love it 👊🏿👊🏿👏🏿
I think the real deal in anti-aging drugs is going to be the eternal youth rather than the eternal life.
Honestly, who wants to live up to 120? Arthritis, blindness, general fatigue and reduced mobility doesn't make it worthy to live to that age. But if you tell an old person you can make them young again, or a middle aged person that they don't have to grow old, bingo! That's where you get the Money.
To live to 120, you wouldnt even have arthritis, blindness, general fatigue and, well, yeah maybe reduced mobility. Because longevity starts in our youth not in our twilight years -with the right choices we make with our nutrition, lifestyle and relationships.
Everyone forgets those who have suffered SERIOUS, irreversible psychological or emotional destruction. For them, existence is already just constant suffering.
I, for one, would NEVER, ever want to live 'forever' as a human. HEYYLLL NO. Especially around mankind in general. They *suck*.

@@vermont741 Except nearly everyone past the age 90 already has all of those conditions….
indeed.
@Kovy B my late grandmother who lived to 89 didnt. She was never bedridden, was up and about, doing odd chores at home (cooking, feeding the dogs, etc). One morning, after my mother gave her her customary bath, my grandma took a nap, then died in her sleep.

I think you're going to be the best channel ever with these revolutionary documentary.
There is a common misunderstanding about life expectancies in the past: the reason they were so low was that INFANT and CHILDHOOD mortality rates have traditionally been high, throughout the good part of human history. If one were to factor this out, one would have that from time ancient, adult life expectancies have been respectable -- if not long. One needs to take with a grain of salt statistics like "average 25", "average 35", etc.
But that has kept our world at balance with a population of about 1 billion people in the planet for thousands of years now we have 7 billion going on 8 when the massive reality is tha life expectansy is declining. I m from a blue zone in costa rica and the people living healthy long lives are those with a simple life simple diet that has nothing to do with technology vaccines or science so how can we have life expectasy as 40 years before europeans arrive it doesnt make sense.....
It's not just high infant mortality; it's also the fact that, while certain people, specifically the _`well-to-do`,_ in every society lived to the ripe old age of 70 or 80 something, like Marcus Aurelius, Socrates, Benjamin Franklin, etc., at the very least, the vast majority of all people throughout every society that has ever existed are dirt poor. And you virtually never hear about individuals...who are dirt poor...by name; you only really ever hear/read about the people who are _`well-to-do`_ by name.
So, please, when you see the statistics that say that _"the average person lived to the average age of __",_ you should be mindful of the reality that virtually the only people that we know about in great detail, specifically by name, from civilizations & societies that we really only know what we know from books are the _`well-to-do`_ people. We virtually never hear the names of the people from Ancient Rome, Ancient Greece, Colonial and post-Colonial America who were dirt poor. Obviously, you're not taking into account the reality that the vast majority of all people were extremely economically deprived, way back when, and really did only live, on the average, to a relatively young age. And a main reason for this is because there was no, or virtually no, sanitation back then. So, the only people that had consistent, every single day, day after day, access to clean food, water & what little sanitation there was...was the _`well-to-do`._ And they lived longer because they had the means to do so, whereas the vast majority of people did not.
I agree with Morpheus on this one - average people died very young. Infant and maternal mortality were around 1 in 3 up until the last century. Even Queen Victoria's children were famous because all of them lived to adulthood, something very rare even among the rich. Also factor clean water wasn't common, lack of sanitation, and only the wealthy often had consistent access to adequate food. Throw in disease and warfare and that most people worked from sunrise to sunset 6+ days a week. The body just breaks down. At 1776, the average lifespan was still 35.
This is why children got married in their early teens - they needed to maximize childbearing years
Correct. Many Romans and Greek lived to respectable old ages. Sophokles died at age 90 in 400something BCE
@Juergen Ernst: Do you have a copy of Sophokles' birth & death certificates?
DW documentaries are new name for the books to get self educated. Amazing work and mind boggling informations. Cheers to new era of self learning
Thank you so much DW documentary. This documentary is phenomenal. Kudos to your team!
The reason stress decreases life span is that it can trigger hormones and neurotransmitters which can repress cell repair processes like autophagy and the immune system... In addition stress can mess up the body's ability to customize T cell in the Thymus glands that weakens the immune system and autophagy. A working Thymus glands is necessary to keep the immune system on target and working. Once the Thymus glands is permanently damaged by stress -- the immune system will compromised .. all attempts at repairing a damaged Thymus is experimental currently...... social support reduces stress by providing external support to adopt to changes in life. So don't damage your Thymus glands ... what our young scientists could do to make this a better world is to develop a cheap to affordable blood test to determine the health of the Thymus glands ... MRI scans of the Thymus glands are too expensive for the average person. The Thymus glands customizes each T cells to avoid attack healthy cells and target sick cells and other pathogens - a critical component to sustaining human life.
Thymus decreases in size and function naturally. This process starts in ones teens,so not really sure how do you expect people to take care of an organ that is naturally replaced by fatty tissue in their adult life 😅🤷♀️ plus it is NOT a gland...
Amazing content. Also, the narrator skills, the all peace of the presenting the constant peace of facts presentation are splendid. You fell engaged through the duration of the documentary.
The experience as a tv producer it can be felt/seen.

Congratulations on your film festival award! MUCH DESERVED!! This documentary was intriguing, engaging and just love how you presented the science of it all. I've always been interested in and studied how our bodies work ~~ especially in response to how we treat it with the food we eat, the air we breath, and how we move. I am especially interested in Functional Medicine, which focuses on the ROOT cause of disease and aging etc. Your documentary touched on all of that ~ it seems like they're truly on the cusp of some amazing science and technology. Thanks : )
Yes,! I am too.
Personally I don’t want to live for an extra long time. I try to eat healthy, keep fit mentally and physically. For me I really believe our time here on earth isn’t our decision. When your time to go comes it comes. I also believe in quality not quantity. But it’s interesting to learn about what the science has to say about longevity.
I have no problem living to 200 as long as I can do all the things I can do now without compromises.
I worry about how much these technologies will cost once they become publicly available. We seem to already be heading into a second gilded age and the poor are being left in the dust.
I mean tbh we can’t just let everyone live forever. There’s not enough resources for that. Especially as third world countries are modernized
When technology reaches this kind of height, hopefully society reaches the same level of being in elevated state where wealth gap isnt an issue.
Cheaper than the enormous cost of end-of-life care I would hope.
@@DStepekGraphics we are not made to live forever it’s nonsense.
@@DStepekGraphics We have enough resources to feed everyone in the world right now, but we are not doing that. There is a fundamental political problem here, since it seems like this statement expects us in the third world to bear the brunt of restraint while the first world continues to extract more resources. Also, sociological data shows that countries start to have declining birth rates when they become more prosperous over time. While I do agree that we can't let everyone live forever, another matter we should look at is *who* gets to live younger longer. We understand that aging makes us vulnerable to diseases, and diseases cause tremendous suffering. Economic inequality is already such a massive determinant of suffering due to poverty, so I'm not sure how adding the existential inequality of some select and rich few living younger longer than everyone else is going to play out. Hopefully we avoid the climate tipping point in 2030 so we could keep asking these questions in the future.

Do you really want to live forever ? The earth can’t sustain more than it already has to. Live the best you can.
One thing I have noticed that wasn't talked about was exercise and strength training. A lot of older people don't really work out like that and once they pass a certain age they don't really move around as much. I feel that if they do more studying on that part we will discover more of the missing puzzle pieces. No one has to become a body-builder, but just slowly walking from one side of your house to the other isn't going to cut it. I'm sure these people would have a much better quality of life if they had a bit more strength to do the things that they loved.
these people are working their land/garden , a lot of walking so sounds like a case of ~ use it or loose it
@@LittlePieceOfHeaven.65 pretty much. Also lifting heavy things to build strength is whats' key, but working your land will give you a well needed workout, but there is a such thing as standing too long. It can over time run your knees down. I have a mid size garden and I do tons of projects that require me to stand. I feel weak sometimes after standing and walking all day, but that didn't get better until I started building the muscles in my legs. Too many of us don't work to build muscle and that is very important.
@@TriggaTreDay very true !
DW docs should win some awards.
? they won the film festival award!
This is the best channel Ive found recently. Well done engaging content.
Both, but there are many factors that effects us, ones life style primarily determines how long we will live and in what condition, one must stay active, have a natural diet and hopefully remain injury free, and as pointed out, live as stress free as possible, but if one has to deal with stress, one must learn how to deal with stress without allowing it to effect one mental state, some people who avoid stress, when they encounter stress, are unable to deal with it, in my opinion !!
I am 52 but many think I am 35 years old. Mother was the same way with looking younger way as she would return to Germany and all her friends appeared much older than her even though they were the same age. Her friends were usually amazed at her appearance as they had not seen her in awhile, so what was the secret? I think it may be mindset along with genetics/diet.
We believed in something her family adage had in the Franconian Steigerwald called "good tired versus bad tired". A mindset to work for something positive all day "good tired", you are exhausted feel mentally satisfied about things an accomplishment. "Bad tired" is doing nothing all day and are ready for sleep even though you did nothing to deserve it.
I am 38 but feel like 28. I also noticed that with age I have more energy and I am smarter. More aware of my diet and exercise etc Kind regards 🙏
Yes totally makes sense..It shows again how its all conected to feel good hormone and mental wellbeing.
This good documentary will accelerate the age reversal research.
Thank you by the name of all humanity!
Dw is a favorite channel for most of us for their unique topics about live and the universe thanks for your interesting documentaries
I don’t actually care that I’m aging (in my 30s now), and the idea of growing older and dying one day doesn’t upset me; it’s just part of life. The only thing that worries me is aging as gracefully as possible-I want to do what I can to live as healthy as I can, stay as mentally sharp as I can, and hopefully avoid as many chronic age-related conditions as I can 🤷♀️ I have no interest in living forever-I just don’t want to suffer more than I have to, or lose my ability to enjoy my life while I have it, all the way until it’s over 👍 so while this documentary is excellently made (as all DW projects are 😊), I gotta say… I can’t relate at all to the fixation on longevity. Quality over quantity, always.
It's normal to want quantity & quality. It doesn't have to be one or the other.
Great documentary! I can't wait to live longer ✨
I am from Costa Rica and have family that are actually younger looking then their age. I’ve lived in the USA for most of my life. At the age of 52 I went and encountered my family. I had cholesterol levels of 239, and after 3 months, and returning to USA it went down to 175. No medications. Eating fruits and drinking lots of coffee since they grow it there and its a delicacy in CR. I also ate eggs. I am 61, but am told I look like my daughters sister who is 44, even the fact that I look younger then her.
You need cholesterol! It’s the size of the particles you need to be concerned about !
Yes, hard boiled eggs are the key and coffee ☕️
@@Ellie80681 😂
@@cherlgolja5402 we need the good cholesterol.
I'm glad they brought up the issue at the end about how would extended lifespans affect our ecosystem and social structures. There is already concerns and growing issues in western countries that there are not enough children in these countries to support and replace the older generations. In theory, if people are living longer and healthier lives, they won't need as much support (medically or otherwise), and - if their health was better and they enjoyed their careers - might continue to work longer, offsetting some of the needed support.
Interesting work. I'd be curious to see how some of these ideas might be used to cure age related illnesses or chronic conditions in the coming years. It may not be as sexy as staying in "prime condition" for 50 years, but curing people of conditions like Crohns or dementia would help a lot of people live better.
Agree, but there is no money in curing people. Keep them sick enough to need constant repeat Rx.
The documentary was slick for sure but missed out major elements of research about ageing - iron overload. The blue zones have low iron scores. Iron is the no.1 cause of ageing
Also, forget drugs and esp growth enhancers, eat the thymus of the animal.
It was a big area of research 100+ years ago.
You're right that age-related ill health present serious problems. The majority of many countries' healthcare spending goes toward age-related health decline. Targeting the biology of aging to treat or prevent age-related ill health would have positive consequences in that respect. You might enjoy this presentation and Q&A from a scientist in the field: ua-cam.com/video/87VOwAtyl-A/v-deo.html
Am I the only one, who does'nt want to become an really old person?
Wait until you are ill or close to your death...
I want to be old and yet look and feel young and healthy 🥲
I don’t either. You’re not the only one.
@@chathpiersath8286 Thanks!
Your position may be different once you have turned 70s.
I don't think that if we live more we will care more about our planet. We are worth to live in a better place whatever our age. Thank you for the documentary. ❤
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!
Thank you very much for this insightful and extremely well planned and edited documentary! Apart from the subject matter, I thoroughly enjoyed the photography, especially the aesthetics of the drone shots: beautiful!
at 5:05 you talk about the life expectancy in roman times at 25 and the middle ages at 35. This is due to infant mortality and early childhood death, but comes across as people being old and dying and these ages. This was never the case. Even our hunter-gatherer ancestors lived into their 70s if they survived childhood. I think it's important to put it in this context. It is often missed when talking about how long people lived in ancient times.
thanks
I am 80. I am now gluten intolerant due to scientists altering the genetic code in flour. I cant walk due to an antibiotic Nitrofureton used wrongly on older people. It kills the nerves in their feet. And hands sometimes. It is humans that are killing us. My mind is sharp I just can’t walk or eat certain things. We have done this to ourselves.
Fasting is the secret to anti aging, I try to trigger autophagy once a week by doing a 3 day water fast;
0- 24hrs: your body detoxs
24- 48hrs: your body goes into fat burning mode
48- 72hrs: autophagy starts
I then eat a balanced diet the rest of the week. People now always think I'm 5 years younger than my actual age
I know people who do nothing and they looks yanger 10 years 🤔
There are other factors, like where you live or born that can determine how old you look. Africans, Arabs, South American generally look younger than Europeans because they get more vitamin c from the sun, south of the equator. Vitamin C is vital for your skin

My mother had a very stressful, challenging, partly under financial stress, n family stress, because she didnt want anyone to know about her problems. Her children were taken away from her by her husband, who divorced her without her knowledge n let her on ice, at 29, dumped for another woman! She had to hide, lie, pretend she was doing fine, did study, got her degree, started working, in another country, all those years missing her children, whom she couldn't meet. Cried a lot in her loneliness, n lived as proud n clean of any compromise.
She lived until 95, n died as a result of a car accident, ending in hospital.
She had diabetes, had cancer surgery, stomach problems, n more...
Her 2 brothers n one sister died at 18, 62, 84 respectively. Her younger brother died at 95 too. One family, died in very different ages!!! Genetics, upbringing, environment, n stressful life for all of them. Now, another factor comes in, the karma with bring with us, n our individual attitude to life. Do you agree? Thanks
I remain a huge fan of DW Documentaries ❤️ absolutely phenomenal! 💯
Great job...aim to become the main documentary source in the world. Congratulations for the excellent workñ
amazing seeing kids this young doing stuff that is so advanced! great stuff
Also concerning…there is no guarantee no matter what health regimen or injections you have. Nature will have the last word. Fear of ageing causes stress, which contributes to ageing and discontent. What’s the point?
@@christinevoge5071 I'm sure they're smart enough not to stress about it. Plus there is something on the market called cortisol blockers I wonder how effective they are.
@@bjrock1235 Ageing is still a emerging field I don't know trusting a bunch of 16 year Olds is wise in this situation.
@@neutral_10 They’ve shown themselves to be more than capable quit being ageist. Besides it’s not like they’re at the forefront of anti aging technology/medicine and whatnot, just helping out and they are remarkably impressive.
@@bjrock1235 I don't think I am. I am being been just being realistic. Kids aren't the vanguard of this field but researchers who have had years of school under their belt.
You guys are just awesome.
Just when you think they've exhausted their contents, they come up with something amazing.
Kudos to you guys.

DW, has become my, favourite documentary producer, excellent production and research, I thought at first it was just another utube story teller. But they compete with the big well known news and doco producers, well done DW!!!
Some of the VERY BEST documentaries I've seen full stop. Production levels are OUTSTANDING...👌
To much stress and torture can age you before your time.
Yep.
It looks more like a business venture than a scientific pursuit.
The 15 year-old contrasted so much with the other people in the documentary! In a bad way! She sounded like she was talking about makeup or something, but she wanted to convince you that she was smart, because she had a product to sell you! It was pathetic! It was clearly transparent when she said that the product was going to be subscription based! Because these are some standard practices when your only gol is to make lots of money regardless, and you can find these kind of advices in any junk-book on how to run a business! be it a subscription, upselling of extra features, key components made as consumables, accessories (see Apple and its changing standard for connectors, or the elimination of the standard audio jack port), creating the ideea that the customer needs to upgrade to the latest model, built-in redundancy, etc... anything that makes a customer give you more money! And it includes selling pure illusions! It's disgusting!
In 25 years, I bet it will turn out that building the first nursing home in Nicoya, will turn out to have happened at exactly the same time life expectancy in Nicoya started dropping... Pura vida.
Smile More.
Exercise.
Get A Good Night's Sleep.
Take Care of Your Skin.
Eat Lots of Veggies.
meditate
eat less carbs
eat more meat
eat above ground vegetables
do weight resistance exercise
fast 22 hours a day
ingest less calories than recommended
drink lots of water
breathe through the nose, not the mouth
Don't worry, be happy
"Immortality is a topic that will never die." lol!
I spent 4 months in Costa Rica nd it was no mystery why people lived longer in the Nicoya area-- 1.) water was good from the tap, 2) fresh air, fish and food 3.) community bonding 4.) lower stress 4.) some believed under water volcanos had some magical influence. I do think there are yet to be measured factors of places too that influence us. You can feel it in the earth and the sea when you get there. It's not just psychological.
Congratulations, you have succeeded in decoding . 😎👍🏼
my mom is 91, my grandmother died in her nineties. They had different lifestyles. It is all about the genes.
Conclusion based on a sample of 2? Ok
Where they shorter and younger looking?
It’s actually based on the expression of genes, which is called epigenetic’s. Not just what you have but what is expressed from what you have.
Probably not as different as you think. Does your mum eat junk food daily and over 50% of her diet is that food. This is the average for a US citizen now. Diet is the number 1 issue including intake of alcohol , drugs and tobacco. My guess your mum doesn't do these things , maybe alcohol in moderation that's it.
@@lefthanded5473 actually they were taller and aged appropriately.
The possibility is there but I question the wisdom of longevity of old age. Living longer "golden years" doesn't appeal to many sane people. That's not "eternal youth", it more like living eternal Old age -living more than half of your existence in this world as a senior citizen!
The goal isn't necessarily to live longer when old and decrepit, it's to slow, halt or even reverse it so you are younger for longer/forever and can compress your mortality so you go from healthy to dead fast rather than spending years or decades sick as we currently do
Great Documentary as always! 👍
Why desire a very long life when you can live a short but meaningful life? The idea of the finiteness of our existence is what fuels us to achieve success, accomplish things and live life to the fullest
Great informative and thought provoking movie! (Plus having been in Nicoya, I loved the views! There's truth in the Blue Zones and in my short time spent there, I never felt better!
metformin interferes with the metabolic process of glycolysis and its effect has a similar result of observing a low carbohydrate diet. It's a well know fact that restricting calories/glucose dietary intake can increase life span. Why? Restriction caloric intake can switch the metabolism into a process called Ketosis that is better at supporting autophagy than glycolysis.... Preliminary research suggest that regular intermittent fasting for longer than 14 hours per day does the same thing.
Eating a bowl of cereal with milk and banana will definately shorten your life.
@@jochemlaurenssen9440 ... yes... I cringed when I saw her high carb highly refined processed cold cereal breakfast... if she did a lo carb high fiber whole food unprocessed salad instead I would be more incline to believe she knew what she was doing. Diving into proteomics too fast is like being so close to the trees that you can't see forest. It might look cool for the uninformed but it is not useful nor helpful
Part 2 please I wanna know the results of the thymus study. Wonderful documentary ❤️

Hats off to DW. All your documentaries are very interesting. I love watching them. Thank you for making these kinds of video. Keep it up. Alvin from 🇵🇭
Hands down DW is the best news channel in the universe when it comes to documentaries.
When you think that we cannot enjoy a 70 years of life and we want to live forever…
This is not the idea. This is about staying Healthy until near the end as opposed to being very sick for many years and being cared for till the end. Check out Functional Medicine
Yeah, for those who do not enjoy themselves throughout their lives probably won't bother to extend their lives, hopefully.
@@sandybayes While the happier ones would extend their lives making the world a happier place over time.
If the longest you want to live is 70, and then you are content to die, you've set your goal pretty low. Maybe you are young nd think 70 is old. Just wait.
@@extremepsyche3135 Some people just not understand the principal involved
My favorite channel I learned so much
Congrats DW for that well-deserved win! I felt like a winner too because I'm part of the DW family as a long time subscriber! 🎉🎂🎉🎂🎉🎂
Sam, we are glad to know that! Thanks for watching us :)
What should we take into account to deal with ageing is the quality of life! and the quality of life depends on preventing risks to become catastrophic events such as: nuclear wars, climate change, financial crisis, economical income distribution inequalities, anti social behavior and social violence
Lets get this done ASAP
Very very impressive Documentary, thank you DW ✔️
Thank you my brother for confirming what I thought and for adding the extra details that tie it all together
Used to be The BBC, now it's DW. Quality par excellence.
Incredible insights and info into the future to come DW Documentary 👏👏
Wrong question as usual..... How can we live healthier and. If so Longer. Quality over quantity.
Wow this is awesome, thanks DW! Just found this now.
Thanks for watching! Be sure to check out our channel for more content. :)
Amazing documentary on Aging ! Keep up the good work in producing excellent documentaries 😊👍❤️
Thanks for watching and sharing your feedback!
They didn't translate everything the first centrianian woman in Costa Rica said. She also said that eating cheese won't make you appear fat. She's right. I stopped eating anything that is not an animal product and I went down 4 dress sizes from a 12 to a 6 but my weight only dropped about 8 lbs.
this should be regarded as scientific material something like this documentary should be taught in schools or used in universities. as always you push your limits guys thanks
Well done DW!
some of the best documentary i have seen about this case
