Remember the GlycoSENS post on negligible senescence? Just like a raw chicken gets crispy after spending 2 hours in the oven, so will our bodies “bake from within” with each decade. Our proteins get cross-linked with sugars and fats, so their function is altered, all this with huge consequences on our sight, hearing, brain, blood…… Continue reading Cool down aging through your diet

Same genes, 80-times lifespan difference – who is it?
Some of the most amazing things happen in nature just before our eyes if we take a moment to notice them. Rats are disgusting creatures we avoid – yet inside their intestines a parasite worm called Strongyloides ratti can be found. This worm is able to live both as a parasite and as a free-living…… Continue reading Same genes, 80-times lifespan difference – who is it?
How to engineer negligible senescence in humans – part VII OncoSENS
What is the number one disease killing our elders besides heart disease? Cancer. A dreadful word that conjures all sorts of evil things, cancer runs rampant as we age. What do all cancers have in common? They start from one (or several) nuclear mutation(s). In the case of lifestyle non-inherited cancers the disease…… Continue reading How to engineer negligible senescence in humans – part VII OncoSENS
How to engineer negligible senescence in humans – part VI RepleniSENS
After a couple of previous articles we reached part VI – the most important of all (in my opinion) because a cell that divides itself in two also dilutes its original damage as well. Having a fresh supply of somatic cells derived from our own DNA would largely correct many of geriatrics diseases. Let’s find…… Continue reading How to engineer negligible senescence in humans – part VI RepleniSENS
