Resveratrol - DHEA - Metformin - HGH and other supplements. Combined with intermittent fasting - spaced exercise - caloric restriction - and you too can live to be old - alone - sad / depressed and/or get run over by a truck.

I heard that psychological stress shortens the ends of telomeres...which decreases lifespan. So physical stress increases lifespan? And I have to take in less calories...and eat only during certain times of the day? Trying to figure out how to live a longer life and implementing it will put me in an early grave.

I can see why some people are criticised for wanting this anti-ageing science because it seems selfish as people want to look better and all that... but the reason I would jump on the opportunity to live into my 100s and beyond is because of the advances in the human race I will witness and the achievements and knowledge I can gain and contribute to helping the world.
Yes, I’m a huge optimist, but anti-ageing should be about the good we can bring to the world through knowledge. And of course this will only interest some people. Most people are already done with life by their 80s anyway. But not all. I want to experience every career, read every book, educate millions and reach the stars.

SALESPRODUCTIONS, you are exactly right. These people aren't doing anything in the aging field, but lining their pockets. We just live too damn long, and 45 should be the cutoff. Living too long feels horrible everyday. There's no need of living till ninety to decay everyday. It hurts

I'm sick of these Scientists trying to stay relevant, and not accomplishing a damn thing in the aging field. David hasn't accomplished anything associated with the aging field, we are still decaying. Aging is killing us all, yet David says the anti aging Science is mind blowing. Where is it David? Get on with accomplishing something relevant, because getting old sucks.
