Switch On Your Anti-Aging Gene!
by Dr. Al Sears, MD Contributing Writer

This isn’t science fiction . . . I’m talking about the cutting edge of what we call nutritional engineering. It gives you the power to decide which genes in your body get expressed or “turned on.”

Instead of sitting around hoping you inherited “good genes,” you can now play an active role in your own future by turning on the genes that promote longevity – and
turning off the genes that tell your cells to die.

How Do You Imagine Your Golden Years?

When you visualize your future, what do you see? Are you playing tennis with your grandkids, or stuck in a nursing home watching TV?

The difference may be as easy as switching on the genes that keep you young and active... In this letter, I'll show you how it works and exactly what you can do to take advantage of this latest medical breakthrough.

Put the Brakes on Aging . . .

New research uncovered a gene that increases lifespan dramatically. Every living thing on earth carries this gene – including you. And there's a nutrient that “turns it on.”

Modern science first discovered evidence of this “longevity gene” 20 years ago. It's activated by a technique called caloric restriction. Researchers found that giving mice a nutritionally balanced diet with very few calories increased their lifespan.

Later studies revealed this effect wasn't limited to mice: Calorie-restricted diets produced similar results across the board, from single-celled organisms to plants and mammals.

It wasn't until recently that they found an explanation. They isolated a family of life-protecting genes called sirtuins (“silent information regulator proteins”). Sirtuins kick in under conditions of severe stress, bringing about a miraculous transformation.

They transmit signals to every cell in your body that literally cancel out the effects of aging. The process that leads cell death to slow to a crawl, buying your body more time to repair the DNA damage that brings life to an end.

This sounds great, but keep in mind that caloric restriction brings your daily calorie intake down to near starvation levels. Not exactly the kind of diet you can stick to.

The problem stumped scientists for years: How to “wake up” sleeping sirtuin genes (without caloric restriction) . . . Now we know these genes can be awakened and called upon to change your body in the course of a single lifetime – safely and naturally.

Here's the Good News . . .

You don't have to starve yourself to switch on your longevity gene. You can activate it with a simple nutrient . . . click to learn more
