Younger Every Year
The science of rejuvenation or how you can cheat time Reginald Deschepper
What would happen if you were able to hack your biological system and slow down aging by means of smart adjustments? Recent developments in the science of aging explained for the broad public This book helps you to differentiate between effective, promising interventions and charlatanism
Humankind is the product of more than three million years of evolution. That evolution is, in the first place, aimed at the best possible distribution of our genes. Sadly, age-related diseases are an unfortunate side effect of that. To nature, it isn’t really that interesting to have us grow very old. But what would happen if we could hack our biological system and in this way slow down aging?
Science Fiction? Not quite. In the past twenty years the science of aging has been developing rapidly. We know what the most important causes are and how we can slow them down, stop them and in some cases even revert them.
About a dozen of studies are happening at the moment and the first results are often astounding. A fast growing group of people that call themselves biohackers already apply these techniques to themselves, but this is not without risk. Luckily there are also proven and safe techniques that you can apply immediately to become younger every year. This book helps you to differentiate between promising interventions and outright charlatanism, so you can pick what is possible and desirable for you, now and in the near future.
