  • Aging is inevitable, but what if it wasn't? Let's take a look at the latest science and how it might be possible to slow our own aging. What's the difference between our chronological age, and our biological age? Dr. Morgan Levine, an expert on aging, sits down to explain.

    This video reminds me of the phrase “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” Though I’m 40, I’m often mistaken for someone in their 20s. I give credit to a number of different factors. 1. Having a consistent skincare routine. 2. Being mindful of what and how much to eat. 3. Working out regularly. 4. Drinking green tea 5. Taking care of my hair and body (not just my face) Of course as an imperfect human, I sometimes don’t eat healthfully, skip exercise, get lazy, etc.. However as long as I choose better options most of the time, I think I’ll be well.

    I think that worrying is the biggest factor in aging. I have an uncle who never married, never had kids, always buys a new Corvette every four years, dates when he wants to, travels often, and just lives his life as he wishes. He’s around 70 but looks like he’s in his 50s. I had a cousin that was a worry wart always uptight about how people thought about him and watched TV news with a tendency to go apoplectic over every story. He always thought he had whatever sickness was currently in the news and was always very nervous about everything. He had a stroke and died before he was 50.
    I took a very demanding and ambitious curriculum in college and worried myself so much that I developed an ulcer. My dad told me to let up, calm down, and “don’t crowd the batters’ box”. I made an effort to stop stressing so much and, to my surprise, I actually improved my grades, decreased the pressure, and became healthier. I’m now 54, most people say I look like I’m 40 and I have no significant health issues. If I had continued on my former path, I doubt I would be here.

She also walked 3 miles a day on the treadmill up until a few years ago.
    She just tells me that she has tried to take care of herself w/moderate exercise, no smoking or drinking etc. I never knew her to be on a diet and we are Italian, so lots of pasta,, but she has never been overweight.. honestly , I think alot of it it has to do with genetics and things we can't control tho (although u have a better "chance" if u take care of yourself) ..both my great grandparents lived to be in their 90s as well, so the genes on my dad's.mother's side are "good genes" -- so that in combination with her taking care of herself, has allowed her to live an active into her 100s.

They do know what the populations had in common, and a big part of their longevity was lifestyle and diet (such as eating very little meat and dairy and regular low impact exercise).

      So the blue zone study is an observational review study where they retrospectively look at these people’s life style and diet in relation to life longevity, however, retrospective study can not form any causative conclusion, the only study that has the ability to say this is randomized controlled study where prospectively you set up a control group vs study group and you control all variance and the only thing is different between these two groups are lifestyle and diet, then if find that the better lifestyle group had lived longer then you can conclude that lifestyle and diet is cause of longevity. There are a lot of limitation to retrospective study, for example, they might find smokers have lower income vs nonsmokers, but you can’t say that incomes difference caused smoking. Retrospective studies can show strong associations but not causation. So I don’t think she is brushing over the study, she is being scientifically accurate. Unless it’s a large RCT, you can not conclude that diet/lifestyle caused longevity.

      Professor David Sinclair is the top guy in Harvard University who is studying anti-aging techniques. There's a definite reason why he is concentrating on Intermittent Fasting as a way to rejuvenate the human body. I saw a before and after picture of a test subject who went on a long-term fast (either five or seven days). After his fast, he clearly looked to be about five years younger. It was absolutely amazing.

      Presumably people would just start retiring at a later date, so they could stay in retirement indefinitely. I think if you only take out 2% of your retirement fund each year (depending on interest rates), you can do that indefinitely while still growing your money to combat inflation. So people would just start saving a larger retirement fund so they can still retire.

      Actually the majority of Aging is determined by an individuals lifestyle and not genes…… the biggest factor that contributes to aging is overeating and lack of exercise. And the best way to potentially slow down and even reverse some of the effects of aging is simply to eat less calories and fast on a regular basis.

    I had a good friend who died last week. She was 102. She died of loneliness. Her husband had died several years ago and her two kids had their own lives and lived in other states. All of her close friends had passed away. I was only able to visit with her a few nights a week when I'd walk across the street and make dinner for her at her house and check in on her being sure to package up enough meals so she could eat until I was able to come back. She told me in January, through tears, I was the only person she talked to in over two months. No one else cared. Igt broke my heart to know that Christmas had passed, and not a single person was around and thought to check in on her to let her know she was still loved and relevant. Not even her kids called her.
    So, no, I'm not a huge fan of living as long as possible. Have fun being old, sick, weak and lonely, y'all.

    My entire family has been pretty genetically blessed. We are all rather tall (shortest outlier being an aunt of mine at 5'6), we all age like vampires without any real practices against aging. My grandparents are still fully functioning at late 80s. My grandpa can run and still looks identical to about his 60s. No hair loss or extreme wrinkling in any of us. My older cousins are 32, 34, and 36 and still all look like they're early 20s. No wrinkles on their eyes or anything that could tell otherwise. I'm the only one in my family that never drinks besides my grandparents. Nobody smokes. Only two of us actually workout.... With all this being said... I plan to beat all of them in the aging competition by trying to stay visually 20s by the time I'm in my late 40s. I believe by actually starting really early with the help of genetics that I could keep my physique, neck and face almost completely young. I have an uncle that is even pushing 40 that still looks 26. All my friends that have met him can't believe it.

    My instinct tells me that aging is something that we can defeat, we need to change our attitude about it, not to see it as "natural process of life " that we not suppose to mess with as most of people think. THAT Is even bigger problem than aging itself.

    I guess i'd like to know how plastic biological age is. Year over year. decade over decade. Is a particularly harsh year of excessive stress and detrimental behavior not repairable?

    • @juandenz2008
      @juandenz2008 2 года назад

      Based on what I've read it seems like aging can't really be reversed at this stage, so you have to try and avoid factors that might accelerate it like smoking, over indulging in alcohol, poor diet, lack of exercise, stressful job etc. A harsh year probably can't be undone.

    Your exterior may look young, but your interior still ages. Your heart gets slower, your bones get weaker, your muscles get weaker, your lungs get weaker. Looking young is just aesthetics.

I'm 26 and thin so it can be easy to be like "whatever" but I'm smart enough to know my metabolism will begin to slow down soon, so time to get more serious!

    Time is such a pain. For some it heals, for others it hurts. Just as time gave us into this world, time will also end us no matter what.
    However, in the future (and I'm talking a few hundred years time) we will definitely reach such advancements that aging will be a thing of the past. Immortality will be possible.
