Michio Kaku on what makes a supergenius.
Enzymes like Telomerase and Resveratrol, though not the Fountain of Youth unto themselves, offer tantalizing clues to how we might someday soon unravel the aging process.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MICHIO KAKU
Dr. Michio Kaku is the co-founder of string field theory, and is one of the most widely recognized scientists in the world today. He has written 4 New York Times Best Sellers, is the science correspondent for CBS This Morning and has hosted numerous science specials for BBC-TV, the Discovery/Science Channel. His radio show broadcasts to 100 radio stations every week. Dr. Kaku holds the Henry Semat Chair and Professorship in theoretical physics at the City College of New York (CUNY), where he has taught for over 25 years. He has also been a visiting professor at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, as well as New York University (NYU).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSCRIPT:
Michio Kaku: If you watch the "Big Bang Theory" on CBS television you see these clueless nerds who are doormats when it comes to the opposite sex, right. And you realize is there any basis in reality? First of all none of my friends are like that and all my friends are physicists, right.
Well there is a kernel of truth and that is some of these individuals may suffer from something called Asperger’s Syndrome which is a mild form of autism. These people are clueless when it comes to social interactions. They don’t look you in the eye, for example. And yet they have fantastic mental and mathematical capabilities. We think, for example, that Isaac Newton had Asperger’s. The greatest scientist of all time was very strange. He had no friends to speak of. He could not carry a decent conversation and yet here he was spitting out some of the greatest theories in the history of science. Calculus. The Universal Law of Gravitation. The Theory of Optics. And we think he had Asperger’s Syndrome.
Now Asperger’s Syndrome is a mild form of autism and in autism we have what are called savants. That is people that have an IQ of maybe 80 but have incredible mathematical and musical abilities. In fact, some of these individuals can hear one symphony and just play it by memory on a piano. Other people could be in a helicopter, have a helicopter ride over Manhattan, see the entire New York harbor and then from memory sketch the entire harbor. In fact, if you want to see it go to JFK Airport in New York City and you will see it as you enter the international terminal. So what is it about these people? Well, first of all a lot of them had injuries to the left temporal lobe. One individual had a bullet as a child go right through the left temporal lobe. Another person dove into a swimming pool and injured very badly the left temporal lobe. And these people wound up with incredible mathematical abilities as a consequence. And so what is it about their brains?
Well Einstein’s brain has actually been preserved. Einstein when he died had an autopsy in which case the pathologist stole the brain without permission of the family. He just realized that he was sitting next to something historic, took the brain, took it home with him, and it was sitting in a jar in his home for decades. He even drove across the country with the jar inside his trunk. And there’s even a TV special where you can actually see the cut up brain of Albert Einstein. And you realize first of all the brain is a little bit different. You can’t tell by looking at it that it’s so remarkably different but you realize that the connections between the prefontal cortex and the parietal lobe - a connection that is accentuated in people that do abstract reasoning is thickened. So there definitely is a difference in the brain of Einstein. But the question is did it make Einstein or did Einstein make this change of the brain?
Are champions born or are they made? That still is not known because people who exercise mental abilities, mathematical abilities, they can thicken that part of the brain themselves. So we know that people who do well in mathematics, brain scans clearly show that their brains are slightly different from the average brain. So in conclusion, we’re still children with regards to understanding how this process takes place. Tonight don’t go home and bang yourself on the left temporal lobe. We don’t know how it works. We just know that in a tiny fraction of these cases people with injury to the left temporal lobe, some of the become super geniuses.

One thing I really love about Michio is that he's an optimist.

[@valerieobrien5521]

Still a very handsome man ! Young attitude and loves learning !! And the Bible says Psalm 103 verses 1 to 3 , Bless the Lord , oh my soul and FORGET NOT ALL HIS BENEFITS . verse 2 says " Who forgiveth all thine iniquities , and :who fills thy mouth with good things SO THAT THY YOUTH is RENEWED LIKE THE EAGLE'S ect ..." As Derek Prince emphasised, there is a connection between having your mouth filled with good things, and having your youth renewed like the eagle's . ! This can be taken to mean two things it can indicate the importance of a decent diet , or even the wholesomeness of what we say when we speak. In a passage of the NEW Testament, Paul asks " He who would see MANY GOOD DAYS - Let his lips refrain from evil , and his mouth from speaking lies. "

Don't think we can figure it all out in the few decades we have left, so here's the plan... 1. Save tissue samples of yourself, any cell can be used to clone you, but not the unique connections of your brain's neurons that compose your consciousness, that's step 2. 2. Save a brain scan of those trillions of connections in the brain on a flash drive (we can scan individual atoms now, tech may be avail in decades), store in a box with tissue samples. 3. In a 1000 years when future scientist reconstruct your body and your unique neuronal connections in the brain from the DNA and brain scan, you wake up 20 with all the awesomesauce of the future...kind of like if we brought a dark ages person to modern times, but better.

Well, humans did that in the past and very few reached the age of 30. By doing this alone we're going anywhere further than today's expectancy. Vegetables are also packed with agrotoxics and organic food isn't affordable and practical for most people. So I guess the key must be in science, drugs, treatments that can heal us and prevent us from getting old and die.

What he says is true. People always get my age wrong even if I give them multiple tries. Here's what I do: eat only unit I no longer FEEL hungry, even if it only takes one or two bites - then stop. Put the food away for when I FEEL hungry again. Repeat the process until you are able to eat less often too. This does not reverse aging, it only slows it. I'm 37 and people think I'm 22 - 25, facially and bodily.

[@krist6074]

That's good advice! I've been following David Sinclair for a while now, and he's also mentioned that fasting or starvation will increase lifespan.

Interesting idea: If cancer is a collection of immortal cells that keep growing and growing and growing until it impedes the other body functions, what would happen if a person's ENTIRE body was comprised of immortal cells? Would that person be theoretically immune to the effects of aging? Or would that person's body keep growing at such a rate that they would eventually become gigantic in size?

There is exactly zero evidence that stimulating telomerase leads to cancer (called oncogenesis). It's not logical to think that because cancer cells stimulate telomerase, the reverse is true. Ie, stimulating telomerase would lead to cancer or uncontrolled cell division.

Kaku isn't talking about fasting for a bit. He's talking about a change in your diet. Eat 30% less and you'll live longer. I was born with a really crappy body. I ate a lot in the beginning part of my (30 year) life. My body started to break down rapidly. Then I started to eat a lot less and did a lot better; less injury and more energy. Now I eat 1 to 2 small meals a day and have more energy than anyone I work with. I also go for hour long hike/hunts every day. This is on top of the fact that I have a fresh knee injury. Eat less, exercise more. It will improve your life.

This so much. In the grand scheme of things pollution or global warming won't matter all that much to the universe. The planet will restore itself if humans went extinct. We should be serving our own interests first and foremost.

[@tubate20092]

and when saving earth serves your own interest?

[@TheMicaww]

Some wounds can never be healed. Humans don't understand this because they believe they can do anything. I believe it and so do you. Our hearts tell us to never limit ourselves. We tell ourselves we can fix anything. When will we realize we've done enough? When? When does our determination cease to go wrong?

[@warioland523]

Yep. If people live long they will think in the long term to solving issues.

[@warioland523]

The real problem is the risk factors of aging. Aging doesn't have any benefits. All it does is lead to numerous complications and illnesses and everything just ends up falling apart. It's high time something is done about this.

[@TheDrB0B]

I want to live forever. I really don't want to grow old. I love my body as it is :(

[@UHFStation1]

I am concerned with retina cells. I have heard of some good stem cell studies, but I worry recovering eye sight from my CSR condition won't happen in my lifetime. Which is why I ask far for questions about death and the afterlife assuming we don't cease existence at that time.

[@Craftzonk]

forgot to mention david fasting rule is to fast dor one day and to fast in the following day and then to fast again in the next day, and so on. at early morning starting to fast and end your fast at dawn(maghrib prayer time)

[@natashatelfer1435]

Raw foods and meditation is the closest there is to the fountain of youth imo

[@erisands6]

What? dont you read starving ur self? Fasting is fountain of youth

[@ZiplineShazam]

I've gotten really really good at making myself drink Red Wine. I only drink it for the health benefits. Discipline is what keeps me drinking at least a bottle a day. I'm so proud of myself and my ability not to quit drinking.

[@ASBlueful]

That's pseidoscience. Alcohol is a toxin, period. And an entire bottle is way too much. That is like 140 ml of pure ethanol.

[@colinhorstmann1749]

Consuming that much ethanol per day is pretty harmful to your brain. There are way safer and more substainable sources of resveratol. Berry's, grapes ect. Or even as extract form, it would actually be cheaper and healthier. With all this ethanol your screwing up your neuro genesis and BDNF levels.

[@shermanw.braithwaite582]

FASCINATING.

[@shinrin777]

In the aquarium hobby, we use the fasting method to prolong the life of fish. We feed them cca very 3 days to prolong the lifespan.

[@Voicecolors]

I´d love to live more 1000 years then i´d waste my life on century levels

[@itzmoses9665]

Hahaha

[@akpsyche1299]

I'm 15 right now, so I'm just counting on the fact that by the time I'm really old, science will have advanced to the point where I can just stop being old.

[@twaynewade2544]

Me too! I'm 16

[@iTzLiru]

17 :^)

[@adriantrela]

So yeah. Keep on eating and drinking shit that is killing You and keep on believing in science that some day someone will heal your whole body. Keep on dreaming pal. Science won't help you and you know why? Because of shit called Big Pharma. p.s sorry 4 my english :D

[@twaynewade2544]

kikiłesio Well, I'm not that scared to die. Just mildly.

[@babykilo8702]

Then there are people like Elon musk. A hyper intelligent human who's doing their own thing for the benefit of mankind. Don't let life turn you into a cynic

[@TheBlueskyson]

I would never have guessed that Michio is 82. He sure knows something. ty.

[@bioblade87]

a physicist explaining biology, Michio going beast mode!

[@williamfitzpatrick6369]

The red wine I've been drinking has been a waste?

[@jojobigcoat]

So maybe instead of trying to cure cancer, what we really should be doing, is trying to harness it. Kind of poetic in a way, huh?

[@muttleygutierrez108]

Not by a long shot. Maybe you should read some 'good' poetry sometime. Edited that poetic comment huh? Bravo!!!

[@XaphillyatedX]

Can CRISP fix the issues with the repair cells not working properly?

[@Yamamoto.Aki_Gaming]

How's watching this in 2021 your awesome

[@thegreatduchess]

As Freddie Mercury once sang - "Who wants to live forever"? Who needs that?! You're going to get bored to death the first 100 years or so!

[@thegreatduchess]

ForsakenRainMan527 You first.

[@ForsakenRainMan527]

I don't randomly comment with Freddy Mercury's quotes about the fact that i'd like to die, so why me? It's you the one that's eager to die here, do it then :)

[@Nik-un4pd]

ForsakenRainMan527 You're so right...I couldn't agree more.

[@thegreatduchess]

Humm.. An eternity with "friendly"folks like you for company? Sounds to me like an eternal punishment! - This is something in the tone you seem to be so fond of. Now something less "bitchy"- I cherish life just as much as any other right headed being on this planet. "Life" has such high value because of its limits! We are productive because we are in a race against time since the day we're born and we do anything possible to make our journy more comfortable. Being on a journey with no destination makes it pointless. MANY remarkable people had a short but intense lifes - Martin Luther King, Jr., Jimmy Hendrix, Elvis, FREDDIE MERCURY and a little girl called Anne Frank! On the other hand many lived beyomd 100 and yet this is the only thing they acomplished!

[@ForsakenRainMan527]

Marina Toshkovska Life has such high value not because of its limits, but because of its rarity in the known universe (especially talking about intelligent life). The "natural" limits of our life have been pushed forward many times during history, and i'm sure that you wouldn't refuse to receive a cure against whatsoever disease. This is exactly the point. I don't see any beauty in the progressive accumulation of cellular damage in our body that eventually leads to death. Anyway, your mood is very common between people; i don't know, it's probably related with the fact that thinking to the possibilities of these new technologies implies an all-out change on the perspective that one have with his idea of life...anyway, i'm already trying to do the best that i can with this life, and i'm not by any mean scared by its possible end. What i hope is that more and more people, you included, will eventually understand that to expand our experience as humans could give us the chance to eliminate a lot of suffering in this world.

[@allenrayner7998]

Immortality = should be humans ultimate goal... everything else will fall in place. Till then, intermittent fasting and red wine...

[@allnutstew]

Allen Rayner Hallelujah!!(pun intended)

[@Medietos]

Can I apply for getting your help to regrow some teeth? Damaged/Lost because of severe longterm stress.

[@vidargranit1628]

He refers to "the wear and tear of cells". I have a question regarding that statement: since it has been noted that refined grains are more quickly absorbed by the body than whole grains, could eating refined grains instead of whole grains contribute to less of a "wear and tear" on the cells and therefore contribute to longevity?

[@Ri3hy]

Currently the oldest living person is a man who survived a starvation camp in WW2. Go figure. And when asked his secret to long life, he was like: never over-eat.

[@avatarion]

I was an anorectic throughout my teens and in my 20's sometimes unemployed & hungry, now in my 30's I still look like a 20-year-old.

[@kristoffersjboden5313]

That's true, my great-grandmother lived until she became 100 years and 4 days (1899-1999), she never over-eated.

[@makatelli]

I pretty much starved in my early years. Maybe i will live longer.

[@HussainFahmy]

The merits of fasting helps longevity.

[@JoseLopez-fk2go]

I like your break down rogue man.. there is also a disease out there that prevents people from aging... imagine that we could manipulate that aging gene so you could literally stop aging at a certain age, ( like that movie in time).. which based on what this disease does its a very realistic possibility... still fairly new so there isn't a hell of a lot research done yet, but that would be super awesome.. our current ability to unravel the bigger questions is limited only by how short our life span is.

[@au2611]

I am ready for the greatest experiment to live longer

[@111alien111]

BRING ON THE FACKING RED WINE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ranoothakur]

@Rahm Minai-Far that would also mean, you will consume thousands of calories...which fails the whole purpose...!!
