Is There an Anti-aging Medicine?

[Guest guest]

Hello CR ALL:

What is the current average male US lifespan?

Average US female lifespan?

What would the lifespan be if cancer, heart disease,

and stroke were eliminated?

Of centenarian males, what percent are fully

functioning at age 92? Of centenarian females?

Same question above for centenarians males and females

5 years later at age 97?

If you live a non-abusive lifestyle and have an average

set of human genes, to at least what age will you live?

If extrapolation of the caloric restriction paradigm

from rodents to humans is valid, what would the life

expectancy of humans become?

Why do the authors conclude the following? --

" Caloric restriction could thus be classified as

a true anti-aging intervention. "
