Addition to Longevity Formula

Getting All Flowery. And Ayurvedic 
New Front Opened in the War On Aging - Telomerase

Adding a new substance to the brew of my "life extension" (anti-aging) formula. It's a hobby.

The little end-caps on your DNA are telomeres. They wear out or fall off letting the DNA leak all over the kitchen floor which is an aging experience. Telomerase keeps the telomeres functional. 

 One supplement outfit that I subscribe to, LiveCellResearch.com scans credible research and puts together attractive supplement combinations based on recent findings. They aggressively market with well written emails. Since they reference a lot sources - and I check them - I find them credible. 

I give them the credit for turning me onto this combination. (They sell a Cadillac version, but I started out with the Pontiac version.)
 Ashwagandha  The Big brand in India, "Tranqualine" is the Caddy concentrate KSM-66 (LCR.com uses it). Their site came up under "peer review research," Googling. It's apparently good for everything.  
The telomere claim seems to be from recent research plus lots of anecdotes and testifyin'.

 The Indian Psychiatric Society high dosage ashwagandha study saying "reducing stress and anxiety and in improving the general well-being of adults who were under stress." And no reported side effects at "concentrated dosage." Measurable telomerase boost.  Not all bad. Peer reviewed, no less.

 Cats Claw (Caddy version = CD-11concentrate, patented)  and Astragalus also have telomerase stimulating powers. (I'll just say it seems to check out and let you do the research.)
AshwaGANdha!  Gesundheit!
A different breed of cat's claw
Astra... Astra... Astragalus (astral cheer at Galus U.)
I just added this threesome to my regimen, along with the list I reported one year ago:

Nicotinamide Riboside 
Pterostilbene   
Trans-resveratrol 


In December of '17 I added the senolytic supplement quercetin.

Now this. Is there no end to the madness?

 I will do the promised one-year update on my health, observations on aging, etc. one of these days.  I bet you can't wait.

AND THERE IS ALL THE BUZZ ABOUT "SENOLYTICS," INCLUDING NEW DRUG DEVELOPMENT AND OTC SUPPLEMENTS. ZAP YOUR SENESCENT CELLS.

Teddy and Bernie

By Gosh, I Think I've Got It! Bernie caught some gaff for having a narrow focus campaign. Here's how he's going to broaden it out. IMHO. And that doesn't mean he's running for anything,  just being Bernie. * Teddy as the model for... ...The New Bernie campaign? * I was zapping through the pile of political pitches I get everyday on my old fashioned e-mail (wduffer@aol.com), zap, zap, zap... Congressmen from Colorado, Florida, Ohio... on and on, Democrats I never heard of, but I'm on "The List." I don't get irritated, I just get rid of the ads; I mean after all, they're Democrats. After I finished my zapping, I had a snack and set to recording another audiobook chapter. Then it hit me, based on one of the ads I zapped.  Here 'tis: It was when I dragged it up again that I noticed it was a Bernie ad, and I said, "That's it!" Do you how many great quotes flowed from Teddy R? About half of them ar

An Informational Present

Image
I TOLD YOU ABOUT THIS SIX YEARS AGO (Surely you remember ?)  ...And in those six years, multiple research projects have affirmed and reaffirmed that SENOLYTICS is a big deal. The science of senolytics: how a new pill could spell the end of ageing                                    * I'm reminded of this by a well-researched article in The Guardian , a newspaper I respect. Aside from that hyperbolic, click-bait-ish headline, it's a fair summary of the state of knowledge on the subject. In brief: Certain drugs and several supplements help the body get rid of senescent cells, "zombie cells" that don't die after they quit doing their thing and just hang around spitting out inflammatory chemicals that damage various organs, joints, and brain cells. The senolytic agents augment apoptosis , nature's way of killing off the senescent cells. When those senescent cells are gone, things start improving measurably (see the mouse with the young look in the Guardian piece.)

Scooter Duff's Theory of Cosmology [UPDATED 5.4.24]

 [Olde Duff Gets Seriouser] SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLES  ARE MOSTLY PRIMORDIAL  DARK MATTER [Draft 8/19/2023] [UPDATED 5.4.24] & [9.25.24] THE BIG NEWS.. ..Is from the James Webb Space Telescope. There were furiously active galaxies very soon after the Big Bang, not that long after the first generation stars happened. This implies supermassive black holes at the centers of the new galaxies.  The question, "how did these giant black holes get there so early?" seems not quite answered by the two main contenders, "Giant dust collapse," and "Many stellar black holes consolidating." Thus I decided to toss this hat into the ring: At the big bang, and dark matter was the first matter of any kind to form (perhaps during the mysterious “inflation” event -- my personal theory).  It’s mutual gravitational attraction and lack of interaction to any electromagnetic force allowed it to exist and start to coalesce, even in the heat of the BB, long before baryonic matter
