Telomere length testing

[rgarling]

I stumbled upon a good presentation that explains the benefits of testing the condition of your telomeres and that offers some ideas for improving your profile. The target audience is physicians; however, it is presented as a sales pitch and is straight-forward. A good way to experience it is to open this page in one window: http://www.rawfoodsbible.com/pdf/tel...slide-show.pdf then load this page in another: Raw Foods Bible

The second page has an audio track just above the heading "Telomere Testing". Once you get the audio going, follow along on the slides.

so far it may work in mice and nematodes.

This subject is huge in the anti-aging and life prolongation circles. Lots of studies are being conducted all over the world. Will be interesting to see what comes of it.

The real radicals are calling this the potential fountain of youth and key to "immortality" (not actually immortal but extensive healthy life prolongation)
