If you could only pick one, which would it be, wealth or health?
For many people, good health gains in value mainly during it's exit. Far to many people unwisely waste health building potential when young. Wealth without health is of questionable value and enjoyment. Unfortunately, appropriate information to protect and maintain health is severely lacking through mainstream medical channels.
A NEW SCIENCE, ANTI-AGING LONGEVITY
With new revolutionary technology advancing in many areas such as internet, cell phones, computers, self-driving autos, and robotics, health has not gone overlooked. The new science of anti-aging is making progress in extending the life of animals, but this research is not yet as consistent in humans. Small animals often react in a slightly different manner than humans in similar test situations.
The anti-aging area under study is focusing on Senolytic Compounds. Senescent cells may contribute to aging and degenerative diseases, such as cancers, diabetes, kidney and heart disease. During most of life, stem cells form into new cells that promote health. But with age, senescent cells can start accumulating and begin blocking out stem cell regeneration abilities. Science is not up to speed yet in duplicating animal longevity studies by controlling senecscent cells in humans. ref ref But, as often happens, the body has two directions for the same cells, one beneficial, and one detrimental. Scientists have to walk a tightrope to discover what controls each direction before opening Pandora's Box. ref
CHALLENGING HEALTH LONGEVITY
Up to this point, the most effective method discovered to extend life is by fasting, or systematically under-eating.
Another group of researchers are looking into natural foods, lifestyle, and vitamin supplements to achieve gains in longevity with some measure of success. A large study just released results that showed the past thinking that 20-30% of longevity thought to be controlled by genetics is really more like only 10%. Lifestyles and diet control the major part. The past studies showing 20-30% genetics were probably right, but about half of genetic influence can be overcome and modified by lifestyle and diet. This website attempts to bridge the gaps in the correct use of vitamin supplements which might have influence in this arena.
2020 COVID-19 REVEALS WEAKNESS OF IMMUNE FACTORS
COVID-19 viciously attacks people with weakened immune systems and especially thise with compromised lung capacity. But, unlike most past coronaviruses, COVID-19 disease is showing attacks on many other organs too.
It appears that there are many new forces at work weakening the immune system. Have people become healthier or is the opposite occuring? With new technology comes new challenges to maintain health. The computer age may be reducing health building activities, like outdoor play and sunshine exposure. What effect Is diet playing with the proliferation of junk food meals? While one form of pollution (air) is getting cleaned up, another is amping up, the electromagnetic fields. Any accumulation effect from the many different sources added together is still unknown (cellphones, TVs, Laptops, computers, WiFi, bluetooth, 5G, satellite waves, etc).
Now more than ever, healthy protocols should be prioritized. If you are expecting Government to protect you...
