APPARENTLY, AGEING HAS SETTINGS? 💎
I went looking for some genuinely good news this morning. Not politics. Not war. Not another billionaire doing something ghastly.
And I found something rather wonderful.
Scientists are increasingly interested not merely in lifespan, but in healthspan. In other words, not just keeping us alive longer while bits fall off, but keeping us healthier for more of the years we're alive.
A large study published this year followed more than 500 mice throughout their lives and found that restricting their daily eating window improved measures of healthy aging in both males and females.
The strongest results came from an eight-hour eating window. Male mice in that group also lived significantly longer, although they were eating somewhat fewer calories as well, so the story is not as simple as “fast and live forever.”
And, importantly, they were mice. Nobody has discovered the Fountain of Youth, and we do not yet know whether the same effects will translate into longer human lives.
But I still find the direction rather exhilarating.
I have practiced time-restricted eating for years, and I know what it has done for my own experience of being 70. I feel lighter in my body. Quieter. Less noise. More clarity.
That is personal experience, not scientific proof.
Perhaps the great achievement of aging research won't be making human beings live to 150. Perhaps it will be much simpler.
Being 80 and still walking. Being 90 and still thinking clearly. Remaining independent longer. Having fewer years at the end, dominated by disease and frailty.
As someone who has somehow arrived at 70 without being consulted about it, I find that rather wonderful.
I have every intention of being a nuisance at 100. Science has made no such promise.
I don't particularly need more life.
But I'll happily take more life in the years I've got.

Scientists explain how you could live up to 156 years
“A team of researchers has unveiled a new mathematical model suggesting humans could theoretically live up to 156 years if every reversible hallmark of aging were eliminated except one.
The finding offers the first quantitative ceiling on human longevity based solely on somatic mutations—the irreversible DNA errors that accumulate in our cells over time.”

Social isolation can increase mortality risk by 35%. It triggers chronic inflammation that damages your heart over time. Prioritize connection as a biological necessity. Watch the full breakdown here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wus7r3FpDkg 🧬 #Longevity #HealthSpan

If you want to be fit at 70, you need to get fit earlier in life. Ageing brings decline regardless of how fit you are. Start from a higher base, fall from higher up. Fitness compounds, just like money. Go lift some weights, go for a swim, walk around the block!

Aging Weakens Immunity. An mRNA Shot Turned Back the Clock in Mice.
An experimental mRNA treatment has converted the liver into an immune cell “nursery” that pumped out greater numbers of healthy T cells in mice. Since the immune system has a powerful effect on other things like organ health and inflammation, it is hoped that such a treatment in humans might significantly expand our “healthspan”, keeping us healthier and more disease-free later in life.
