The End Of Aging – Can It Be True?
First of all, and contrary to popular belief, aging is not universal. Species such as lobsters, rockfishes and tortoises show no sign of aging. Secondly, humankind is, in a sense, a struggle against Nature. How else can you explain the popularity of today’s so called Vampire Facelift procedure? Join Tom Osborne and his radio news team for a peek into the not too distant future where old mice are getting younger. Stem cells are battling the wears and tears of our fragile human bodies making them young and strong again. Numerous studies have shown that calorie restriction can lengthen our lifespans by more than 30%. So, does that mean to live longer we need to starve ourselves and eye each other hungrily? There’s even a fountain of youth recipe on our program this week. What are the economic ramifications of living to 100, 200, 1000 or more years of age? It’s all here on US World Report Radio waiting for you to digest. Will these treatments only be available to the super rich? I know we’re all dying to hear this syndicated broadcast ASAP.
