Understanding Genetics of Aging with Harvard Professor Dr. David Sinclair

Harvard scientist and NYT best-selling author David Sinclair, PhD
and I take a tour around the science of aging. If aging is THE root
cause of all of the chronic diseases of aging, then arguably, if we
focus on the aging journey itself, we might be able to stop playing
“whack-a-mole medicine.” A lot of complex environmental, genetic,
epigenetic and biochemical processes go into the aging journey,
however, as Dr. Sinclair discusses, it looks like a very heavy
lifter in aging is epigenetic changes – specifically, DNA
methylation and demethylation (plus histone acetylation). In this
episode of New Frontiers, learn about the amazing research going on
at Dr. Sinclair’s lab, hear what’s getting translated to humans,
and what you can do NOW to stop the epigenetic clock from ticking….
Listen and learn, leave us a 5 star review if you’d be so kind, and
be sure to share with your colleagues! ~DrKF
