  • What assurances do we have that anti-aging technology will work across the entire body and organ systems? What if you have a 95 year old who, because he uses anti-aging technologies has the cardiovascular system of a 40 year old, but he still has the joints and bones of a 95 year old? Do anti-aging technologies work across all organ systems?

  • On Joe Rogan you mentioned there being 3 biochemical pathways involved in aging. Sirtuin, mTOR, AMPK. Is that still accurate or have other pathways been discovered?

Our health care is twice as expensive as other wealthy nations, we are spending $10,000 per capita on health care annually compared to $5,000 or less in other western nations. The reasons for this are multiple, but we spend twice as much for inferior care here in America.

Can Anything realistically be done to change that, or do wealthy and powerful industries combined with anti statist ideology make true reform impossible? It seems to me that true reform would drastically cut the income of hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, physicians groups, insurance industries, etc and they would all fight true reform tooth and nail.

If true reform is impossible, what do we do? Until this changes our system will be a mess.
