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 ag
o. 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 . . .
