Oh and btw, I’m British so I normally spell it ‘ageing’ just in case anyone’s searching for ‘anti-ageing’. Some people call this field of science biogerontology, geroscience or longevity research.

Have any studies shown that berberine can be used in the place of Metformin? I realize that Metformin has been established to exhibit anti-aging properties because it is synthetic and money can be made on Metformin. Berberine on the other does have similar properties but is a natural compound found in a number of plant species. Therefore there is little incentive to make any money on the sales of berberine which is available OTC. It does exhibit less side effects than Metformin according to reports in the literature. I generally take berberine in a formulation combined with medium chain sized fatty acid oils. Please comment if you know of more information about berberine. Thank you.

I really hope anti aging is a think within the next 10 years. Mostly because of my parents, i want them to live for a long time and be healty.

Alpha-Ketoglutarate appears to be a promising anti-aging drug (it has increased lifespan in studies on worms and mice). Another is the combination of the amino acids glycine and n-acetyl cysteine (often referred to as GlyNAC), which increases levels of endogenous glutathione. I would welcome your thoughts on these in a future video.

Thanks for the vid, Dr Steele! Suggestion for the future topic is eating related interventions for longevity, as far as I saw, you didn’t cover it on your channel. Complete fasting for multiple days vs intermittent fasting vs longterm low calorie diet vs fasting mimicking diet vs keto diet vs macronutrients manipulations etc. There are many proponents for each of these strategies, but I didn’t saw any deep enough comparison.

As a statin user from age of 17 until now 29.5 and hardly research that thing I would advice you to check the negatives of statins on humans who take them for a long period. I take it because I have to but I wouldn't touch it otherwise

Problem with statins as anti-aging: although statins do reduce ldl cholesterol, the hypothesis that ldl cholesterol is the cause of heart disease has been falsified. In fact people with high ldl tend to live longer than people with low ldl, because ldl appears to have immune system functions protecting against infection and cancer.

I am 75 years old and haven't been to a doctor since 1969. I believe you need a prescription for Metformin so I take berberine.

IMF 18-6 works best for me. Have been on this fasting diet for over 2 years. No sugars whatsoever. 100-200 grams per day max of complex carbohydrates ( Brown rice, multi grain -Schwartz Brot, whole grain pasta). Semi - Keto diet. Fish, seafood, eggs- pescatarian. Almost 63 yrs young. Perfect health! No pills whatsoever. Low glucose, normal colesterol, low blood pressure, low heart rate. Also, 15 minute HIIT every morning . ❤

[chrissscottt]

Gimme the cocktail please. Time is running out.

[diogoantunes]

Here hoping real progress is developed here. The case that ageing is one of the most pressing human causes of suffering and death, especially in wealthy societies where easier problems have been solved, has convinced me.

[elcheapo]

*Why would anyone want to live longer??* 😮
I can't wait to tap out. I am 63, healthy and have seen it all. If my demise comes knocking tomorrow, I'll leave with a smile. 😊

The much insulted method of intermittent fasting removes senescent cells through autophagy and doesn't involve taking drugs. You also lose weight, lower blood pressure and sugar, as well as a load of other improvements. "Take a pill for it" should be a last resort.

What are your thoughts on resveratrol?

[Kuttanwarrior]

How to quickly boost NAD + in the blood plz? Niacin+Nicotinamide?

Could you please look into peptides. I had problems with pain in my shoulder and hip for 1.5 years, trying everything, nothings worked. I ordered the peptide bcp 157 in tablet form. I took them for a month, and the pain is gone. I would be very interesting to hear what you think about peptides.
