Maximizing life expectancy/enjoyment
Once upon a time, our fellow Wayne S. Hill
rambled on about " Maximizing life expectancy/enjoyment." Our champion De-Medicalizing in sci.med.nutrition retorts, thusly ... Dr. Andrew B. Chung, MD/PhD wrote: When there is disuse atrophy. This does not occur with modest reduction of food intake. Are you really a physician? No! Just thought that you might want to know. |

There's better evidence for that than for practically any other intervention. Maybe more evidence for it than all other interventions combined! I think this conclusion will be reversed when researchers realize that sarcopenia and osteopenia are much greater When there is disuse atrophy. This does not occur with modest reduction of food intake. Are you really a physician? Elderly people atrophy WITHOUT REDUCTION IN FOOD INTAKE. It's called sarcopenia. Keep in mind that Chung is the "Two-Pound Diet" guy. |

Christ lives. Prove it. Why should I? Because you claimed it to be so. Put up or shut up. It is not my claim but the Word of God. If He choses to prove it to you, He will. He is not a He ; it is consciousness without an object or subject. Greater minds than ours have grappled with this vexing concept since man's earliest comprehension of his own mortality. The simple answer is that it is all way beyond our futile aspirations to make some meaning to what is meaningless. As I always told my children, there are no answers so don't ask the questions. No it is not; even Christ (as have all the great/enlightened ones across culture and the ages) said "I am in you" and "Ye also are Gods". "The opiate of the masses"! It is a state of consciousness that has been reached by these people; one that has been called: God Consciousness, Christ Consciosness, enlightenment, Nirvana/Paranirvana, Consciousness Without and Object/Subject etc. etc. It is emminently reachable although most always ineffable to normal waking consciousness. Make the most of what there is and what we think we know. Beyond that anything is possible, but sadly not very likely! That may be true as ther are many who are more concerned with getting something to eat, avoiding a bullet or other wordly activirties - all of which interfere with the descipline necessary to even attempt to reach such a SOC. As John Williams can confirm, I have dwelt on this problem probably more than most; it doesn't help one little bit. Then think not; meditate (no thought). |

Chung, MD/PhD" Mice live *twice* as long in captivity if they are given only half as much as they would eat ad libitum. Not only do they live longer but they a physically more active in their older age. Imagine humans doubling their lifespan to 150 years and playing tennis when they are 120 years old. You certainly have an active imagination. There is no objective evidence that caloric restriction in humans would have the same effect as in mice. There is no objective evidence that it won't. He like we *are* animals. To be more precise, we like mice are mammals. You're ignoring the fact that there's a bunch of **** that works great in mice (like every bodybuilding supplement ever) that's totally ineffective in humans. CR extends life in more than just mice. It does so in practically every animal that has been tested - including some much larger animals such as dogs. http://web.archive.org/web/200208162...bliography.htm ....has a list of primate and human studies on CR - while its too early for much longevity data from these it is possible to look at mortality and disease susceptability in the primate studies - and these are substantially reduced by CR. Here's a 25-year DR (Dietary Restriction) study on Rhesus Monkeys: ``Mortality and morbidity in laboratory-maintained Rhesus monkeys and effects of long-term dietary restriction. [...] Compared with the DR monkeys, the AL monkeys had a 2.6-fold increased risk of death. [...] The age at median survival in the AL was approximately 25 years compared with 32 years in the DR.'' - http://timtyler.org/pmid/?n=12634286 Most doubt human lifespan will be extended proportionally to the extension seen in mice. Nobody really knows how much more humans will get - but it *does* seem likely that it will result in additional lifespan. -- __________ |im |yler http://timtyler.org/ Remove lock to reply. |
