As a qualified "anti-aging master", how can you not know the ever-changing life extension technology?
Pay attention to the time school to chase the new express column, here contains the freshest life extension information, take you to the first time to link the world's cutting-edge longevity technology trends.
As the saying goes, "Eat all your money and be in good health." "Eating has always occupied a very important position in our lives, three meals a day has always been a recognized law of life, but with the development of modern science, people gradually found that three meals a day is not as healthy as we think, eating too much may accelerate aging, some people even shouted out the slogan of "eating enough, go early", and "light fasting" and "intermittent fasting" These healthy diet new concepts are gradually accepted and respected by the public.
Eat only one meal a day and live 28% more
Dr. Cabo of the National Institutes of Health (NIA) published a blockbuster study in a sub-journal of Cell, a top biology journal, and they said that intermittent fasting can allow us to slow down aging and stay young. In a state of starvation, in order to cope with the pressure of survival, cells will eat the "garbage" in their own bodies, thereby providing the energy needed for survival to maintain life.
The study used randomized and controlled experiments to divide nearly 300 mice into three groups, using a dietary pattern of eating casually, one meal a day, one meal a day, and reducing calories by 30%. After 20 months of feeding, the study found that the mice with one meal a day were younger and lived longer when the nutrient needs were met. Mice that eat once a day live 11 percent longer than mice that eat casually and are more sensitive to insulin. The mice, which ate once a day and reduced calories by 30 percent, had a better effect, extending their lifespan by 28 percent.
The study showed positive results, but this was only an experiment in mice after all, and it didn't necessarily work in humans. To further validate this conclusion, the researchers chose monkeys, a close relative of humans, for the experiment, and surprisingly, the results were almost identical to the mouse experiments, all of which proved that eating less could lead to longevity.
Thermal restriction is key
To uncover the mechanism behind "eating less and prolonging life," the researchers measured various biochemical indicators in mice and found that it was all related to calorie restriction. Eating only one meal a day reduces the intake of calories, calories are limited, in order to survive better under hunger, the cells will save energy, eat some of the "old, weak, sick and disabled" cells, scientists call "cell autophagy." This process removes senescent cells, stimulates cell regeneration, and rejuvenates the "energy factory" mitochondria, thereby promoting healthy aging.
The fact that calorie restriction can delay aging is already an indisputable fact in the scientific community, but eating only one meal a day is too difficult to stick to, don't worry, scientists already have a solution. Calorie restriction is a sign of aging by improving malfunctional nutrient perception, and improving other signs of aging can also delay aging.
Harvard University genetics professor Sinclair published a blockbuster study in Cell, found that the intake of NAD+ precursor substances for 7 consecutive days can reverse the mitochondrial function of aging mice equivalent to 70 years old humans back to the young level and regain youth, and other indicators are equivalent to human 20 years old, and the anti-aging effect is quite significant. Sinclair himself also took this substance for a long time, as the first person to "eat crab", after taking it for 2 years, after testing, it was found that his actual physiological age was only 31 years old. It was this research that led Sinclair to be named one of The World's 100 Most Influential People by Time magazine.
The age of 100 years per capita is coming?
From ancient times to the present, human beings have been constantly exploring the road of prolonging life and healthy aging. From the ancient Qin Shi Huang seeking "elixir of immortality", the West seeking the "fountain of youth", to today's calorie restriction and intervention aging supplements. The development of the field of anti-aging is changing with each passing day, representing the unremitting pursuit of human beings for the length and quality of life.
As Bank of America Merrill Lynch analysts say, we are at the forefront of change in the quality and length of human lifespan, and genomic science, big data, and anti-aging technologies could soon extend the healthy lifespan of humans to more than 100 years. The scientific research achievements in the field of anti-aging in recent years have also confirmed this view, and there will be 1-2 major breakthroughs in anti-aging technology every year.
In recent years, hyperbaric oxygen in the field of anti-aging is very hot, scientists found that the 64-year-old continuous inhalation of hyperbaric oxygen for up to 3 months, the body's cell aging was significantly reversed, the physiological age is 20 years younger.
Nobel prize winner Shinya Yamanaka's "somatic reprogramming technology" has also attracted everyone's attention, which can "rejuvenate" mature cells and obtain investment from many billionaires, with an investment amount of more than 20 billion yuan. Recently, they have achieved phased research results, through reprogramming technology to restore the youth of 53-year-old skin cells in just 13 days, nearly 30 years younger, and their function has also returned to the level of young cells.
With the rapid development of modern biotechnology, medical knowledge has shown explosive growth, 10 years ago, medical knowledge is doubled every 3.5 years, and now it takes only 73 days to double, many biotechnology companies have sprung up, greatly reducing the cost of anti-aging technology. Perhaps in the near future, the per capita centenarian will no longer be a dream.
