You - Staying Young




Principles of Longevity

  • Aging is really about trade-offs (looking at aging from the gene's perspective rather than the individual)

  • Aging isn't about breaking down as much as it is about repair.  (Everything breaks ... It is how well we repair ourselves)

  • Aging happens from both inside out and outside in. (altering the "rate of aging")

  • Aging is not about individual problems but compounded ones. (multiple little problems often add up to a big problem)

  • Aging is reversible - All you need is a nudge. (small changes can reap huge benefits)
