One fact about the future of which we can be certain is that it will be utterly fantastic. —Arthur C. Clarke, science-fiction author You don’t just want to feel younger, you want to look younger too. So do we. In this post, we tell you how you can slow down the wrinkling of your skin […]

Hydergine® can also be of value in hypoglycemia because it helps stabilize the brain’s response to energy supply—the brain is normally the part of the body most sensitive to low blood sugar. People who are unable to obtain adequate oxygen because of heavy smoking (the carbon monoxide destroys the oxygen-carrying hemoglobin in the blood and […]

There does not seem to be anything in the nature of the reproduction of tissue which demands its death. … One cause of senility after another will be found and removed, each resulting in only a minor extension of active life. One cannot help wondering what will happen if the causes are all known and […]

interfere with PAH activation and/or binding to DNA, thereby reducing the amount of DNA damage done. Rate and accuracy of repair of ultraviolet (UV) light damage to DNA in seven mammalian species’ cultured fibroblasts correlates with maximum species life span. Repair of damage to DNA plays a vital role in retarding aging, although the importance […]

Proteins are complex molecules, made up of amino acids, which perform a wide variety of functions in the human body, from chemical reaction-controlling enzymes, to structural molecules like collagen, to necessary components in human memory. In order to function properly, proteins must assume a correct three-dimensional configuration. In their proper shape, some proteins act as […]

Empiricism may serve to accumulate facts, but it will never build science. The experimenter who does not know what he is looking for will not understand what he finds. —Claude Bernard, 1813-1878 When your skin wrinkles, or arteries or bread hardens, or rubber becomes brittle, or old Jell-O® stiffens, we are seeing examples of the […]
