Hope everyone is having a fantastic Tuesday morning!
Most of us start saving for retirement the day we begin working, but perhaps we should also do the same for our future health.
Maintaining muscle mass and strength may be the secret to anti-aging, according to our health reporter Shermay Tsai.
Speaking of aging, our essential guide this week takes you behind macular degeneration, a condition that can take effect as people age. Read more to find out how we may be able to prevent and treat this condition.
I will also take this opportunity to mention an old gem from our previous work: an article on rapamycin—a compound isolated from bacteria on Easter Island. Studies show that it may have the potential to extend life.
Rapamycin is currently approved for use as a post-transplant immunosuppression drug and for other rare diseases. However, tests in animals showed that rapamycin extended the lifespan of mice by 9 to 14 percent, and has been shown to stimulate hair regrowth, increase collagen, and help with cancer and other aging-related diseases.
