Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “Brilliant and enthralling.”​ —The Wall Street Journal A paradigm-shifting book from an acclaimed Harvard Medical School scientist and one of Time’s most influential people. It’s a seemingly undeniable truth that aging is inevitable. But what if everything we’ve been taught to believe about aging is wrong? What if we could choose our lifespan? In this groundbreaking book, Dr. David Sinclair, leading world authority on genetics and longevity, reveals a bold new theory for why we age. As he writes: “Aging is a disease, and that disease is treatable.” This eye-opening and provocative work takes us to the frontlines of research that is pushing the boundaries on our perceived scientific limitations, revealing incredible breakthroughs—many from Dr. David Sinclair’s own lab at Harvard—that demonstrate how we can slow down, or even reverse, aging. The key is activating newly discovered vitality genes, the descendants of an ancient genetic survival circuit that is both the cause of aging and the key to reversing it. Recent experiments in genetic reprogramming suggest that in the near future we may not just be able to feel younger, but actually become younger. Through a page-turning narrative, Dr. Sinclair invites you into the process of scientific discovery and reveals the emerging technologies and simple lifestyle changes—such as intermittent fasting, cold exposure, exercising with the right intensity, and eating less meat—that have been shown to help us live younger and healthier for longer. At once a roadmap for taking charge of our own health destiny and a bold new vision for the future of humankind, Lifespan will forever change the way we think about why we age and what we can do about it.

Download or read book Ending Aging written by Aubrey de Grey and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2007-09-04 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MUST WE AGE? A long life in a healthy, vigorous, youthful body has always been one of humanity's greatest dreams. Recent progress in genetic manipulations and calorie-restricted diets in laboratory animals hold forth the promise that someday science will enable us to exert total control over our own biological aging. Nearly all scientists who study the biology of aging agree that we will someday be able to substantially slow down the aging process, extending our productive, youthful lives. Dr. Aubrey de Grey is perhaps the most bullish of all such researchers. As has been reported in media outlets ranging from 60 Minutes to The New York Times, Dr. de Grey believes that the key biomedical technology required to eliminate aging-derived debilitation and death entirely—technology that would not only slow but periodically reverse age-related physiological decay, leaving us biologically young into an indefinite future—is now within reach. In Ending Aging, Dr. de Grey and his research assistant Michael Rae describe the details of this biotechnology. They explain that the aging of the human body, just like the aging of man-made machines, results from an accumulation of various types of damage. As with man-made machines, this damage can periodically be repaired, leading to indefinite extension of the machine's fully functional lifetime, just as is routinely done with classic cars. We already know what types of damage accumulate in the human body, and we are moving rapidly toward the comprehensive development of technologies to remove that damage. By demystifying aging and its postponement for the nonspecialist reader, de Grey and Rae systematically dismantle the fatalist presumption that aging will forever defeat the efforts of medical science.

Download or read book Ageless written by Andrew Steele and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2021-03-23 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A fascinating look at how scientists are working to help doctors treat the aging process itself, helping us all to lead longer, healthier lives.” —Sanjay Gupta, MD Aging—not cancer, not heart disease—is the underlying cause of most human death and suffering. The same cascade of biological changes that renders us wrinkled and gray also opens the door to dementia and disease. We work furiously to conquer each individual disease, but we never think to ask: Is aging itself necessary? Nature tells us it is not: there are tortoises and salamanders who are spry into old age and whose risk of dying is the same no matter how old they are, a phenomenon known as “biological immortality.” In Ageless, Andrew Steelecharts the astounding progress science has made in recent years to secure the same for humans: to help us become old without getting frail, to live longer without ill health or disease.

Download or read book Age Later written by Nir Barzilai, M.D. and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do some people avoid the slowing down, deteriorating, and weakening that plagues many of their peers decades earlier? Are they just lucky? Or do they know something the rest of us don’t? Is it possible to grow older without getting sicker? What if you could look and feel fifty through your eighties and nineties? Founder of the Institute for Aging Research at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and one of the leading pioneers of longevity research, Dr. Nir Barzilai’s life’s work is tackling the challenges of aging to delay and prevent the onset of all age-related diseases including “the big four”: diabetes, cancer, heart disease, and Alzheimer’s. One of Dr. Barzilai’s most fascinating studies features volunteers that include 750 SuperAgers—individuals who maintain active lives well into their nineties and even beyond—and, more importantly, who reached that ripe old age never having experienced cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, or cognitive decline. In Age Later, Dr. Barzilai reveals the secrets his team has unlocked about SuperAgers and the scientific discoveries that show we can mimic some of their natural resistance to the aging process. This eye-opening and inspirational book will help you think of aging not as a certainty, but as a phenomenon—like many other diseases and misfortunes—that can be targeted, improved, and even cured.

Book excerpt: "Youth would be an ideal state if it came a little later in life." - Herbert Asquith The question 'How to stop the aging processes?' has engaged the human mind since inception of recorded civilization. Man has tried to find solution in mythology, religion, yoga and of late in scientific breakthrough. During the last century medical science managed to double the life span of human species mainly due to prevention of diseases. Will the trend continue in future? Will we manage to double the human life expectancy again in this century? Few renowned scientists are already saying that babies have been born who will live beyond 150 years. Is there any truth in these predictions? Anti-aging is an important issue because it has huge implications for us as individuals and society as a whole. There is no doubt that we will live much longer than our fore fathers. If we are going to live longer then it important for us to understand how the aging process works within our bodies. How it affects our mind and bodies? We don't have to grow old with health problems and memory loss. By understanding the aging process we can increase our youth span and live a healthy and productive life. According to the theories, aging is a complex interaction of genetics, chemistry, psychology and behaviour. This book examines facts from fiction as to what is happening in the field of anti-aging.

Download or read book Anti Aging Medicine How We Can Extend Lifespan and Live Longer and Healthier Lives written by Theodore Goldsmith and published by Azinet Press. This book was released on 2020-08-29 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aging is a treatable condition! For more than a century aging and a particular lifespan have been widely thought to be an inescapable and fundamental aspect of human existence. Indeed, Darwin's evolution theory tells us that the force of evolution is toward defeating aging, leading to the idea that aging is the result of unalterable laws of physics or chemistry. We can find different treatments for different age-related diseases like cancer and heart disease but aging is itself an untreatable fact of life. Today it is increasingly clear that aging is actually the result of complex biological programs that purposely limit lifespan in humans and most animals because this created an evolutionary advantage for populations of wild animals including our prehistoric ancestors. Programmed aging and supporting evolutionary concepts are a logical consequence of relatively recent discoveries in genetics as well as observations regarding the aging and lifespan characteristics of many different organisms. As a consequence, we can increase healthy human lifespan by interfering with the aging program. Interfering with a biological process is a familiar problem in medicine, and research toward developing treatments based on this idea are underway. Goldsmith describes the 160-year history of still-unresolved scientific arguments over the evolutionary nature of aging, the increasing empirical evidence of aging programs, and the exciting prospects for lifespan extension and healthy living. More practically, the book describes: Key observations about the nature of aging. Orally administered substances known to increase longevity in mice. Why exercise increases longevity. Anti-aging medicine issues with existing health care systems. Social, educational, ethical, and economic issues with extending lifespan. How lifespan extension concepts add to our ability to devise treatments for age-related diseases. Contents 1. Introduction 2. Nature of Aging and Lifespan 3. Evolution Theory and Aging 4.
