The validity of medical reports in medical journals has recently been challenged, particularly in this era of fake news and COVID-19 scaremongering, as evidenced by the unprecedented retraction of reports published in two major elite medical journals about the coronavirus pandemic.
Turns out, after an America’s Frontline Doctors citizens’ petition, just 152 of 17,000 deaths attributed to COVID-19 in Lisbon, Portugal were confirmed (0.9%)! The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test used to confirm COVID-19 was set at sensitivity of 35 instead of 18, which resulted in 97% of these tests being false positive. A person may have died, and they may have had a positive PCR COVID-19 test, but they didn’t die of COVID-19 because the test was intentionally flawed.

The news headline is discouraging to longevity seekers. Researchers recently said “We can’t cheat death!” — that the ageing process has not slowed down in humans- we’re just not dying younger. We are not adding years to the end of life.
After antibiotics, vaccines, organ transplants and modern medicines that only quell symptoms, anti-ageing researchers say there isn’t much that can be done to extend the human lifespan. Most of the added years of life have already been achieved. The variance we now observe in human lifespan has more to do with income and public hygiene than whether you eat Wheaties for breakfast or yogurt with dinner.

As if there is such a pill… The answer to that theoretical question is YES, 33% of survey respondents said they would take an immortality pill. Of interest, 42% did not respond to that question, possibly because they haven’t sufficient information to provide an answer or simply believe it is an impossibility.
So, only 25% says NO, they wouldn’t want to take the “live forever” pill.
The survey was conducted among 911 Americans and published in the Journal of Aging Studies (June 2021).
Older adults (average age 72) said if there was an age they would “freeze” their biological age it would be around age 42. Younger adults (age 18-28) said age 23, but of course they have no other reference than what they have already experienced.

Resveratrol continues to astound researchers and the public alike. Not only does resveratrol exhibit virucidal properties (virus killing), it works indirectly in the gastric tract to reduce intestinal permeability (leaky gut). It accomplishes this via its anti-inflammatory properties.
Resveratrol is a prebiotic, not a probiotic. Consumers are more familiar with probiotics like acidophilus and Bifidus sold in health shops.

It’s April 7, 2021 and Newsweek magazine posted up a review article about the state of anti-aging pills. Any avid longevity seeker who has been following this story over time would have thought it was written over a decade ago. The promise of an anti-aging pill is getting old.
An anti-aging pill is always another decade away, another long-term controlled human trial, a conclusive meta-analysis providing compelling data to build a consensus of experts. But then again, that will never be enough.

As the world has learned in the past year, when forced to use natural remedies like vitamins C & D and zinc because there were no prescription drugs or vaccines at hand that specifically address a newly mutated coronavirus, the world experienced a massive decline in heart attacks, the inexplicable vanishment of influenza-related deaths (flu deaths were massively overstated anyway and the flu was recategorized as a coronavirus), and other respiratory diseases, cancers and common maladies faded away. And there were no mass side effects reported from consumption of these natural remedies as predicted by health agencies that warn the public away from these nutraceuticals.

The focus of this report is resveratrol and its profound and unparalleled anti-COVID-19 properties. But before this report addresses resveratrol, some background information is needed.

Alcohol consumption is up 500% in America with lockdown and quarantine measures in place. So is anxiety.
The number of mentally depressed people in the world is estimated to be 300 million. Most likely that number has risen considerably with the COVID-19 lockdowns.
The red wine molecule resveratrol is the ideal multifunctional molecule for anxious, depressed or stressed individuals during an epidemic lockdown.
Resveratrol was recently shown to molecularly reverse internal markers of mental depression among laboratory mice that were restrained in their cages. A report published in Neurochemical Research Jan. 3, 2021 stated the effect was profound.

Researchers in Spain now show that a modest dose of the red wine molecule resveratrol (~100 milligrams in humans) reverts aging changes in old animal hearts to more youthful patterns. This research suggests it is never too late to benefit from resveratrol supplementation. These beneficial changes correlated with increased levels of sirtuin1-survival gene protein.
Resveratrol reduced markers of inflammation (tumor necrosis factor or TNF) and interleukin 10. Inflammaging is the descriptive term used to characterize aging changes throughout the human body with advancing age.

There is convincing evidence, both experimental and observational, that fish, chicken and beef from animals that consume resveratrol-fortified diets produce healthier and less-contaminated sources of food.
