Identical twins have always been the subject of much study. Since they are genetically identical, much has been made of their proving or disproving the nature versus nurture argument. If you missed that one, it goes like this: Are your genes (nature) the most powerful determinants of your future, or is your environment (nurture) the …
I have written a lot about broccoli and its related Brassica family. Broccoli has long held true “Super Food” status. Unlike some other highly touted foods, it actually has a fairly balanced ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 fatty acids (although it is extremely low in both) and contains Sulforaphane and Indole 3 Carbinol. …
I got an interesting question from a reader who wanted to know why “resveratrol” was not mentioned in our book, The Immortality Edge. Given all the hype that resveratrol continues to get, it’s a fair question. But in that last sentence is the answer, “hype”. I can remember someone writing in and saying her doctor …
Did you ever wonder why we have “bad genes”. I mean, think of it. If our genetics is supposed to help us survive, why are there such things as bad genes, and more importantly, why do they persist? If you believe in natural selection and evolution, then only the best of the gene pool should …

Woe unto you, if you are a farmer and are against them. As for …
In the very beginning of our book The Immortality Edge, in my forward, I quote Neil Armstong: “One small step for many, one giant step for mankind,” rendering my opinion on the importance of telomerase therapy and telomere science. That opinion is passing from an opinion to fact. This past week saw several major releases …

Over a decade ago a very brilliant marketer told me, “Don’t be first; they will forget you!” He was referring, of course, to a situation where you create something or become involved in something at a very early stage and no one knows what it is and no one knows why they need it. If …
TA-65 and telomerase activation goes mainstream via Suzanne Somers Read More »
I am getting a bit sick of all the BS that people are sending me, saying whatever product they represent (usually by an MLM ) is superior to TA-65. I allow dissenting opinions, because no one is ever right 100% of the time, including me. Over the past few months I have publicly retracted statements …
I recently posted a link to a “skeptics” site on my Facebook page. I did so primarily because this site underlined my expectations about how buzz words, like epigenetics and telomeres, will be used by marketers who barely scrape the surface of the knowledge base needed to really understand what those words mean.
