Arguments continue among the best and brightest scientists concerning the question: Is aging unstoppable. If you think about it that question has already been answered in a functional way. There are several mammalian cell lines that have been made “immortal” simply by turning on telomerase and expressing it at a higher level than normal. Most surprising is […]
Is Aging Unstoppable Read More »
You may have wondered why all the negative supplement stuff released in the press lately. You may have wondered why something like fish oil that has thousands of positive studies and as many human studies has become the whipping boy of the media lately. You may have wondered why all the TV and internet docs

I have to tell you, I am appalled at the recent issues with the NCI study and its supposed link to fish oil and advanced prostate cancer. I have already ridiculed the authors, but in case it was not clear, let me restate it in the clearest way possible: I think the authors, particularly the

Surely I must be dying and this must be my last chance to write you in my physical form. Any further communications you receive from my blogs, emails, personal notes-any further stage presentations or lectures must be coming from my ghost or perhaps an evil impostor trying to steal my identity. I say this because

Continuation of: Fish Oil and Prostate Cancer Part 1 ——————————————— In actuality the hormonal changes in men are not nearly as universal as they are in women.

It is often suggested that Prostate cancer is the male equivalent of Breast cancer. There are some striking similarities. Both are hormonally driven and both occur with increasing frequency as a person ages. As you will also see, the mechanisms by which Fish Oil prevents and improves the outcomes in this type of cancer are also very

I am not sure how many times I’ve said that longer telomeres protect against cancer. Probably almost as many times as I’ve had to refute someone saying “telomerase causes cancer therefore TA-65 might cause cancer.” Back in December 2010 JAMA a very drug centric Big Pharma supported journal published a study that associated short telomere

So said the brilliant PhD whose talk preceeded mine at a recent public anti-aging conference. While I am not 100% sure if this was a deliberate snipe at me I didn’t care because it played right into my hands. I destroyed the arguments that were advanced in favor of “natural triglyceride fish oil” also known

The following questions were sent in concerning telomeres, telomerase, TA-65 and the Life Length assay as offered in the U. S. by adltests.com. Question 1: Is the database mainly constructed in the US? Answer: The database is worldwide but the bulk of the database comes from the U.S. The only lab currently offering the Life

A new study has linked the pain syndrome known as Fibromyalgia to shortened telomeres (biologic time clocks). I have already begun to get emails asking me if TA-65 will help this, due to the most recent information. Before I answer that question, a little background is in order. As you hopefully know already, the telomere
