Are scientists being honest about aging research?

on the comment about the rich living longer - there's probably a threshold effect where simply having reasonable financially security and having health care available would raise lifespans for billions by a huge amount, and for 10s of millions in the US. As it is now the longevity/health community is really comprised of the well off, people who can already access health care and good food. So much good could be done if we could solve the problem of ensuring a sane political system which is not a lap dog for special interest or crazy ideology. One simple result would be regulating the food supply which in the US kills more people than everything else combined

The question about reproductive aging... wrongly addressed here @6:40. Bowes, quote, "once we have produced offspring to continue our gene pool". He is NOT aware about the self.imposed limitations of that question. It excludes apriori any aspect of culture, the role of culture to produce that offspring in a very hostile - physically and biologically - environment. He completely neglects the important role of knowledge. Even in elephants the grandma can not reproduce herself, but her knowledge is absolutely crucial to the survival of everyone else. Bowes' question therefore is limited to organisms without any culture, and those are bacteria. As a materialist reductionist it is impossible to even address proper questions. Everything turns into BS. And Mrs. Murphy in response to his question at @6:40? quote: "of course" .... It is a waste of time to expect any meaningful outcome of such discussions

Hello - seems you have thought much of aging - please could update any researchers and scientists that follow closely and think that are close to best understanding of causes and maybe what best for slowing. Thanks on any update.

We can Cure Aging it's common sense we know our Hormones and everhthing else goes down with age. Dying of old age isn't build into the fabric of the universe! there is mechanism's that we can fix and rejuvenate the body. Remember! the Body is the most advance machine in the world and if you give the body what it needs, it will do the work for us. Live Long And Beat Aging Before It Kills Us!

Very disappointing. Her research priorities appear to be directed towards creating new drugs rather than promoting metabolic health through informed lifestyle choices. Feels dishonest to me... the very thing she ostensibly rails against. Oh well... nothing new there 😞

[@balisuncocoyt]

Yeah ... I hear you she did point out that the NIH does almost all the funding. So go figure it'll be the government ordained ways to eat according to the current SAD. That has not got us very far. Yeah ... nothing new.
