Do You Want to Die?

Can someone - anyone - please explain to me why you would rather die than live. I just can't understand the concept.

The fact is that we now possess the medical skills to figure out the problem of disease and aging (same thing) and to prevent people - YOU - from dying. But "geniuses" like Steve Jobs would rather spend millions on a big boat rather than preventing their own death. Crazy.

Meanwhile, your life ticks away...tick tick...No matter how much you enjoy today and how great your life is, you are throwing away an eternity by simply failing to support medical research.

Of course our "leaders" are idiots who are doing the same thing...And billionaires - with the money to fund research - buy useless junk instead of saving their lives..and their children's...

But we can do something. Not dying is the most important thing you can do for yourself and your loved ones. We need to all work together and solve this problem. If we spent half the $600 billion we in the USA now spend on the military and put this into medical research...we wouldn't die. It's as simple as that.

So, what will it be?

Don't You Get It? Time Is Running Out

Don't you understand - you are getting older and will die, because so little is being done to stop the aging process.

Each day you are closer to death. And yet...you do nothing about it.

What is especially strange is the rich and powerful, who spend millions on big house, boats, fancy clothes, gems, art...and yet they won't spend money to save their own lives. Or their children's.

Let's all work together to support research to stop aging. We don't have to die. Life is precious. Spend your money to support research. I want to raise $1 billion to stop aging. Help me, help yourself. Everything else is pointless, a huge waste.

Or just do nothing, and die. It's a simple choice.

Fish Oil Slows Aging?


Here is a recent article on this: LINK HERE
Fish oil slows burn of genetic fuse in ageing, say scientists
Fish oil may be the true elixir of youth, according to new evidence of its effect on biological ageing. Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil preserve the genetic "fuse" that determines the lifespan of cells, say scientists.
The discovery, made in heart disease patients, may explain many of the claimed health benefits of omega-3.
Taking fish oil supplements is said to protect against heart disease, improve survival rates after a heart attack, reduce mental decline in old age and help to prevent age-related changes in the eye that can lead to blindness. Research has also shown that rodents live one-third longer when given a diet enriched with fish-derived omega-3.
Although omega-3 fatty acids have powerful anti-inflammatory properties and lower levels of some blood fats, the mechanisms behind these effects are poorly understood. The new research suggests that omega-3 has a direct effect on biological ageing by slowing down the rate at which protective caps on the ends of chromosomes shorten.
The caps, called telomeres, are made from copied strands of DNA and have a similar function to bookends or the plastic ends of shoelaces. They prevent the ends of chromosomes – the "packages" of DNA in the cell nucleus – becoming damaged and keep the DNA organised and contained.
Each time a cell divides, its telomeres get shorter until a critical point is reached. DNA then becomes damaged and the cell stops dividing, and may die. In this way, the telomere acts like a biological fuse.
The rate at which the fuse "burns" can vary both between individual people and individual cells. This is believed to have an impact on age-related diseases.
US scientists conducting the research looked at the effect of omega-3 fatty acids on telomere shortening in 608 hospital out-patients with heart disease. At the start of the study, measurements were taken of the length of chromosomal telomeres in the patients' white blood cells. Blood levels of the two fish-derived omega-3 fatty acids docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) were also measured.
The tests were carried out again after five years, and showed a clear correlation with omega-3 intake. Patients consuming the least omega-3 had the fastest rate of telomere shortening, while those in the top 25% of consumption levels had the slowest rate.
The scientists, led by Dr Ramin Farzaneh-Far of the University of California at San Francisco, wrote in the Journal of the American Medical Association: "The present findings identify deceleration of telomere attrition as a potentially novel pathway for the anti-ageing effects of marine omega-3 fatty acids.
"In summary, among patients with stable coronary artery disease, there was an inverse relationship between baseline blood levels of marine omega-3 fatty acids and the rate of telomere shortening over five years ... These findings raise the possibility that omega-3 fatty acids may protect against cellular ageing in patients with coronary heart disease. 

[Of course, we don't spend enough on aging research. Please support my effort to raise $1 billion to Cure the Disease of Aging - the greatest killer.]

Stupid People Wasting Money on the Super Bowl

I can't help saying how stupid the Super Bowl is. We should be spending our money on medical research to save our lives.

Instead, we spent $12 billion on ads, chicken wings, and other money for over-sized men to play a game. 

Give me $12 billion and I will cure the disease of aging. Wouldn't that make more sense than watching a pointless game? Who cares who wins - you are still going to age and die. Wouldn't it make more sense to NOT die?

Yes, death is inevitable; but so is tooth decay. But I fight tooth decay. Similarly, I want to fight a life-span that was genetically enforced hundreds of thousands of years ago, when we lived in caves. The world has changed since then, and it's time to update our bodies, our genes, and stop aging.

Am I the only person who sees this?
