reversal using existing therapies.
10. *Critical Need for
Age Management Blood Tests
Baseline and Annual Follow-Ups
Urgent Need for Meticulous Validation
11. Began in 1948 with 5,209 adults in Framingham, Massachusetts
Prior to Framingham little was known about
hypertension/cardiovascular risks
Doctors did not know how to prevent heart attacks
Atherosclerosis was thought to be unavoidable aspect of aging
Framingham Heart Study
Millions of Lives Saved
12. ( Major reason why Framingham Heart Study started
• Early 1900s. High blood pressure NOT considered a
“DISEASE” – no need for treatment.
• 1932. Franklin D. Roosevelt – At age 50, had high blood
pressure.
• 1932-1945. FDR’s blood pressure worsened as he
gradually developed signs of heart failure.
• 1945. FDR died of untreated hypertension (hemorrhagic
stroke). At the time of his death, his blood pressure was
300/140 mm Hg.
Died at
age 63
Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Premature Death
13. Learning from History
• Fact: FDR died at age 63 of hypertension – a
condition his doctors thought “normal for his age”.
• Reaction: As a result of FDR’s untimely death,
doctors started questioning the conventional
wisdom about hypertension.
• Result: FDR’s death was a major reason why the
Framingham Heart Study was proposed and
funded.
14. Framingham Heart Study
Key Points:
• Framingham Heart Study initiated in
1948 and still ongoing.
•Today Framingham is following the
grandchildren of the initial cohorts.
•Over 3,000 scientific publications have
been made using Framingham data. Dead at
Age 63
15. Thousands of medical papers published using
Framingham…now in its third generation
Framingham Study is source of the term “risk factor”
Framingham Heart Study
Millions of Lives Saved
Framingham findings revealed role
of diet and other artery-clogging factors
16. Similarities between FDR’s death in 1945
& death from age-related disease in 2021
• 1945 – FDR dies of hypertension.
• 1945 – Hypertension not
recognized as a disease.
• 1945 – Cause of hypertension not
well understood.
• 1950s – Progress begins for
treating hypertension...
• 2021 – Millions die from aging.
• 2021 – Aging barely recognized as
disease by medical establishment.
• 2021 – Molecular causes of aging
increasingly being understood.
• 2021 – Discovery of treatments for
aging to ↑ health span/lifespan.
17. Analogy: Framingham Heart Study and
the Vitality in Aging Longitudinal Study
Vitality in Aging Longitudinal Study
seeks to do for aging what the
Framingham Study did for our
scientific understanding of heart
disease and hypertension.

“Study finds hyperbaric oxygen treatments reverse aging process”
A new study from Tel Aviv University and the
Shamir Medical Center in Israel indicates that
hyperbaric oxygen treatments in healthy aging
adults can stop the aging of blood cells and
reverse the aging process.
In the biological sense, the adults' blood cells
actually grow younger as the treatments
progress.

45. New York-based biotech raises $60 million to develop a
pipeline of companies and therapeutics to treat diseases of
aging…
Cambrian Biopharma has 3 major categories of aging at the top
of its to-do list:
1) Tackle intracellular dysfunction (things that go wrong inside
cells, such as mutating DNA or shrinking telomeres);
2) Cellular dysfunction (whole-cell level problems, such as
senescence or energy pathway break down);
3) Tissue level dysfunction (stem cells exhaustion, chronic
inflammation, or breakdown of tissue architecture).

John B. Gurdon and Shinya Yamana
“For the discovery that mature
cells
can be reprogrammed to become
pluripotent.”
The Nobel Prize recognizes two
scientists who discovered that
mature, specialized cells can be
reprogrammed to become immature
cells capable of developing into all
tissues of the body.
Four specific genes encode transcription factors
can convert somatic cells into pluripotent stem
cells that can propagate indefinitely.
These transcription factors are collective called:
“Yamanaka Factors”

56. Rewriting the Rules of Biology
Time-honored doctrine of biology was that the fate of cells was
irreversibly determined, and that rejuvenation was impossible.
Starting in 2006, cell reprogramming demonstrated cellular rejuvenation.
Rejuvenation now achieved in cells from very old humans (2021).
Research underway to rejuvenate whole organisms (including humans).
The “impossible” achieved was overnight via cellular reprogramming.

Scientists Discover Ways of Making Old Blood New Again
Restoring blood component regeneration process could curb disease, lengthen health span
https://news.cuanschutz.edu/news-stories/scientists-discover-ways-of-making-old-blood-new-again
Hematopoietic stem cells lose capacity to multiply and differentiate into blood cells with age.
An enzyme (FADS2) loses function with age, reducing healthy blood cell formation.
Introducing gamma linolenic acid (GLA) in rodents’ diets improved blood cell regeneration.
GLA partially restored capacity of old mice to generate new blood cells,
Impaired capacity to make young blood cells linked to neurodegenerative diseases in old people,
GLA has long been available as a dietary supplement (300-1200 mg/day dosing).

“Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels.
The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square
holes.
The ones who see things differently. They’re not
fond of rules. And they have no respect for the
status quo. You can quote them, disagree with
them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them.
Because they change things. They push the
human race forward.
And while some may see them as the crazy ones,
we see genius. Because the people who are crazy
enough to think they can change the world, are
