  • Awesome podcast!

    I was especially interested as I am participating in a clinical trial of Rapamycin, and my epigenetic age test has me 12 years older than my biological age - not great news for anyone! I thought the explanations in the fourth episode about Mtor, telemeres, etc., were so well done - I really appreciate the work that went into synthesizing this information! Very interesting and relevant.

From 1912 to 2012 the population increased from 1.5 billion to 6 bil... more
