Do you want to prolong your life? The Tree of Life is an index of the latest research in the search for a scientific fountain of youth. Discover how scientists are learning to slow, prevent, and even reverse aging:
The Superhormone Promise: Nature’s Antidote to Aging – One of the nation’s leading anti-aging doctors explains how the latest discoveries in the field add up to an exciting revolution in science and medicine that now gives undeniable support to his long-held claim that aging as we know it is neither a necessary nor an inevitable part of life. Rather, aging is a preventable disease for which we now have a cure at hand–superhormones.
The Dhea Breakthrough – Touted as the fountain of youth in pill form, DHEA, or dehydroepiandrosterone, is a hormone naturally produced by the body. The young body, that is; by age 85, you produce 95 percent less DHEA than at age 25.
The Miracle Nutrient: Coenzyme Q10 – CoQ10 is a natural nutrient essential to the life and health of every living cell. By supplementing your body’s natural ability to supply CoQ10, you may dramatically reverse the effects of aging, poor diet, and decreasing health.
The Anti-Aging Zone – According to Dr. Barry Sears, the aging process isn’t caused as much by the depletion or lack of hormones as we get older, but rather by their impaired ability to communicate with each other. Little-known "super-hormones" called eicosanoids can reestablish the critical communications links between your hormones, which is the key to age reversal.
Stop Aging Now: The Ultimate Plan for Staying Young and Reversing the Aging Process – Jean Carper documents how antioxidant vitamins, minerals, herbs and food chemicals are the magic youth potions humans have been seeking for centuries.
The Alpha Lipoic Acid Breakthrough – It is well known that antioxidants such as Vitamins E and C are essential in combating age and disease caused by free radicals. But new research shows that alpha lipoic acid might be the most powerful of all antioxidants.
The Anti-Aging Hormones – Discusses the uses and misuses of testosterone, melatonin, estrogen, and other manufactured hormones to elevate mood, increase immunity to disease, and slow the aging process.
The Melatonin Miracle: Nature’s Age-Reversing, Disease-Fighting, Sex-Enhancing Hormone – Explains how the hormone melatonin, produced in the pineal gland–the body’s timekeeper–works to reverse aging, how to make use of it, and what kinds of results to expect.
Reversing Human Aging – Scientists are learning how to manipulate the clock of aging, which has now been identified as the telemere, the end segment of DNA on chromosomes. Laboratory researchers have successfully reset the telemeric clock in cells. Next will come the development of safe and effective means of doing so in human beings.
Immortality: How Science Is Extending Your Lifespan and Changing the World – a clear overview of how genetics has come to the brink of science fiction–brought to you by the author who predicted the advent of the Internet, solar-powered satellites, electronic books, and many other wonders of the 20th century.
