I hope you caught the initial installment of this yesterday along with the recent blogs on exercise, diet and obesity. Whenever I talk about longevity I always get hit with the “cost factor” It is as if I am personally responsible for the cost of things that maintain telomeres, super high quality fish oil, stem cell therapy and
