Guest guest Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 I posted this yesterday but for some reason it didn't appear... 2 other important points in the article: #1 the latest study on resveratrol showed no extension in maximum lifespan in long lived specimens. #2 A second drug (forgot the name) did show measurable extension of maximum lifespan in long lived strains of mice. To my knowledge, this is the first reliable report of anything other than a CRON diet that showed such results.
