The Benefits Of Cardiovascular Fitness — Live Long Enough To Live Forever

It is the weekend and time for a new video… following on from last week, this time I am looking at the types of cardiovascular training and how they effect your body at the cellular level, so you can craft your own training program, suited to your lifestyle and preferences, that helps you slow the aging process so you can live long enough to live forever…and be fit enough to enjoy it to the maximum.

After all, if life is boring, why live forever?

In The Benefits Of Cardiovascular Fitness, I look at the benefits of training and exercise, both High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and Steady State Cardio training, and how they effect the body in different ways, making them both essential weapons in your arsenal against the effects of aging.

Researchers discover drug that reverses mental decline, aging

WASHINGTON (SBG) — Researchers studying cognitive deficits following traumatic brain injuries have discovered what they say is a revolutionary drug that could provide the cure for aging. The study by the University of California San Francisco has shown promising results among mice, essentially reversing age-related declines in memory. “We went on with this crazy experiment… and were able to return their cognitive function to as if they were never injured,” said Dr.

Using Stress To Your Advantage

Have you ever wondered why our bodies react as they do to stresses?

In this quick guide, I go right back to the primordial soup so to speak, and trace the factors that led to where we are today, and I finish off by looking at good and bad stresses so you can understand them, and use them to your advantage to stay fit and healthy, and even, maybe, to help you slow down aging…whilst we wait for the medical breakthroughs that will allow us to role back the years…

In Cellular Response To Stress — Using Stress To Your Advantage so you live healthier and longer.

We all want to live forever, well, I assume you do if you are following this channel anyway.
But how…

In How We Evolved With Stress — When Can Stress Be A Good Thing? I will look at how to live a healthier, happier and longer lifestyle to allow a healthier and happier life.

Aging, diet-induced obesity, and metabolic disease link explored in new research

Might want to dig deeper.

Unraveling the links among obesity, aging, telomere lengths and metabolic diseases is the subject of the study published today in Nature Metabolism by a collaborative research team at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth).

Telomeres act as protective caps at the end of chromosomes to prevent them from replication errors during cell divisions. Every time a chromosome replicates itself, telomeres shorten. When the telomeres become too short, the cell can no longer replicate its chromosomes safely and becomes arrested, or senescent. That shortening has been linked to the and development of degenerative diseases.

“Recent studies have also shown the connection between obesity-induced , such as Type 2 diabetes, and the accumulation of senescent cells, which entered the state of irreversible proliferation arrest,” said lead author Mikhail Kolonin, Ph.D., professor and Harry E. Bovay, Jr. Distinguished University Chair in Metabolic Disease Research with McGovern Medical School at UTHealth. “Cell senescence can be caused by telomere shortening due to excessive stem .”

Kris Verburgh | How to Live Longer? High-Tech and Low-Tech Approaches

A bit of everything here from hallmarks of aging to epigenetic reprogramming(which effects telomeres, gene expression, etc) and even diet.

In this talk given at Ending Age-Related Diseases 2020, Dr. Kris Verburgh of the Free University of Brussels discusses the methods by which people might lead longer, healthier lives. While some of these methods involve the use of advanced rejuvenation biotechnology techniques, others are simpler to implement and require a minimum amount of technology, such as nutrition and exercise, along with health-monitoring technology that already exists in the public space.

​​Ushering in an ageless future

For years, futurists have attempted to predict when, in the future, we will finally achieve the technological singularity’’ — a technological breakthrough so profound, it changes the course of humanity. Specifically, futurists have been talking about the moment when super-human artificial intelligence becomes reality. Or — to put it simply — when computers become smarter than people.

However, at Centaura, we believe that the world needs to prepare for a different singularity — one that might arrive even before super-human intelligence. It’s the moment when humans have the power to slow down — and even reverse aging.

The idea of the singularity first became popular nearly thirty years ago by the science fiction writer Vernor Vinge. In his essay The Coming Technological Singularity, he famously declared, Within thirty years, we will have the technological means to create superhuman intelligence. Shortly after, the human era will be ended.

Yuri Deigin — Defeating Aging

Andres de Tenyi.

Yuri Deigin, MBA is a serial biotech entrepreneur, longevity research evangelist and activist, and a cryonics advocate. He is an expert in drug development and venture investments in biotechnology and pharmaceuticals. He is the CEO at Youthereum Genetics and the Vice President at Science for Life Extension Research Support Foundation.

Yuri has a track record of not only raising over $20 million for his previous ventures but also initiating and overseeing 4 clinical trials and several preclinical studies, including studies in transgenic mice.

At Youthereum Genetics, Yuri is currently leading a project dedicated to developing an epigenetic rejuvenation gene therapy, as intermittent epigenetic partial reprogramming demonstrated great experimental results in mice: it extended their lifespan by up to 50%.

His life goal is to do everything possible to minimize human suffering from various diseases, especially terminal age-related diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer’s, and cardiovascular disease and to help humanity eradicate them. As an activist, blogger, and speaker, he is conveying the magnitude of human suffering these diseases cause, as they take over 100,000 lives each day. As a biotech entrepreneur, Yuri is doing his modest part by putting together projects that could yield such therapies, splitting his time between Toronto and Moscow.
