Virtual webinar hosted by the American Federation for Aging Research (AFAR) and the Academy for Health & Lifespan Research on the current state of existing and emerging drug interventions to extend healthspan:

Areas of Research
- metformin
- glp-1
- sglt2
- lifestyle (sleep, fasting, diet, exercise / physical activity, inflammation control)


Who should be taking these drugs?
Any FDA approved drug can be used on/off label. It's not just older adults.

Aging is a personal issue. We need to track or it may be meaningless:
- biological ageing tests
- methylation tests

Naperville, tell us what you know of this.

N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) is a supplement form of the amino acid cysteine, which is a precursor to glutathione, a powerful antioxidant in the body. By boosting glutathione levels, NAC supports detoxification, immune function, and protects cells from damage caused by oxidative stress.

Also, I was taking vitamin C daily until I read excessive consumption can lead to kidney stones. I am trying to eat more citrus like oranges.

Increasing your overall health today is called increasing your healthspan. Increasing your healthspan may increase your lifespan. Most importantly it means you are not beset with health maladies.

New research shows that some weight loss drugs reduce cancer in woman!

NAC is supposed to be good for you, so is Vitamin C. Only take what they say to take on the bottle, try it out for a few weeks, and reduce it if it is an issue.

I was taking 60+ pills every morning and 10+ every night. Most were supplements and I did that for months but then had an issue with some of my prescriptions so I dropped down to what I knew were OK. I am building back up! I'll weed out the problem supplement(s).

I spoke with my general practitioner Dr today about my rapamycin and acarbose prescriptions....she was not quite laughing but thought it funny, and was a bit worried because I am going all out.
