105-Year-Old Man In Italy Discovered With An Immune System Of A 25-Year Old
CXCL9 Protein In Blood Determines “How Far Along A Person Is In Their Inexorable March To The Grave.”
Red Wine Molecule May Produce Biologically Young Centenarians
Researchers at Stanford University and the Buck Institute announce the remarkable discovery of a biological clock in human blood that can determine your “inflammatory age” (iAge) which equates with longevity. iAge can now be used to track risk to develop chronic age-related frailty. Anticipate blood test kits to be available soon.

The average length of service for enlisted personnel in the US military is just under 15 years. The average age of enlistment in the US army is ~ age 21 and the average age of US army enlisted men and women is ~age 27. Only ~9% of army personnel are over age 40. These troops have barely begun to age biologically. So, what’s the impetus to introduce an anti-aging pill in today’s military?
The US Military’s Special Operations Command (SOCOM) intends to test an experimental pill as “smart weaponry” to enhance performance in the battlefield. News headlines portray this as a nutraceutical that will stave off the effects of ageing on older soldiers.
“It has the capacity, if successful, to actually prevent ageing and hasten recovery from injury as well as enhance mental function,” say news reports.

Most people have the results of a prior blood test that shows numbers for total cholesterol, good (HDL) and bad (LDL) cholesterol, and triglycerides. Sometimes the blood test includes lipoprotein(a), that has been called a “mysterious factor” in heart disease. Lipoprotein(a) is perplexing to both doctors and patients alike.
Patients with elevated lipoprotein(a) levels, which is a fatty protein produced in the liver that enters the blood circulation and increases risk for a heart attack, primarily affects 1 in 250 individuals worldwide with a family history. About 60 million Americans have elevated Lp(a) levels. Roughly 1 in 7 heart attacks are associated with high Lp(a) levels. Concentrations of Lp(a) vary by 1000-fold between individuals.

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.
