WELCOME In previous issues on the topic of longevity, we have delved deep into important subjects such as melatonin, circadian rhythms and blood and arterial conditions, plus several of the significant theories of aging. In this issue, we want to present some different items of interest, in order to help raise awareness of lesser known topics. Such studies, unknown even by many in the antiaging fraternity, are those that have been conducted on factory workers within Russia, utilising the pineal, thymus and some of the other peptide bioregulators. Since it is rare that such studies are conducted on humans, we see them as having particular and important relevance. Plus, why do women live longer than men? Dr. Marios Kyriazis attempts to answer that very question. Surely nearly everyone would agree that life-extension is a fascinating subject, especially if we end up understanding and controlling the keys to healthy longevity itself. Therefore we trust that you enjoy what this issue of the Aging Matters™ magazine has to offer. Without trying to sound too much like Spock from Star Trek, we hope you: “live long and prosper.”

Zika Virus:
too risky to be in Brazil? With the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro fast approaching, there have been a few sport stars pulling out over questions of just how risky it is to be in Brazil at this time. The Zika virus is spread to humans via the bite of an infected Aedes mosquito. It can also be passed from human to human through unprotected sex with an infected man, or from a pregnant woman to her fetus. The mosquitos that carry the Zika virus are particularly aggressive during the daytime. The symptoms of zika virus can be quite minimal, in fact many people who have the virus may not show any symptoms at all. Potential symptoms are a fever, rash, joint pain, or red eyes; but sore muscles and headaches are also signs. It is also believed that once a person has been infected with zika virus they will be immune to it in the future. The main concern for people at the present time is the high risk of the virus causing microcephaly during pregnancy. Microcephaly is when a child is born with abnormal smallness of the

head, a congenital condition associated with incomplete brain development. There have been reports of other complications including eye and ear defects, and impaired growth. There is no specific treatment for the Zika virus, it is simply advised to treat the symptoms by drinking plenty of fluids, and rest. Medication to reduce any fever or pain is also advised. It is not recommended to take any aspirin or non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs. With conflicting, or not very clear advice, from many medical professionals, it does leave a big question for those traveling in this area in the coming months.

PEPTIDE BIOREGULATORS PROMOTE ACTIVE AND FUNCTIONAL LONGEVITY
By Leslie J. Farer
According to a 2012 United Nations estimate, over 300,000 people worldwide had reached their 100th birthday to become centenarians. Of these, a tiny percentage will go on to become supercentenarians, (110 years old and above) who characteristically experience relatively good health and an absence of age‑related diseases until shortly before death at a very advanced age. These enduring individuals are portions of genes’ DNA to living proof that humans have regulate and initiate processes the potential to live to 100, 110, that synthesize proteins, or 120 years old, even beyond. regenerate tissue, and restore functions of organs that What factors promote their have undergone age-related exceptional longevity and damage. why does 99.996 percent of As a result of their the rest of the population rejuvenating properties, age more quickly, lose peptide bioregulators functionality, develop have been classified as diseases and die decades “geroprotectors” (literally, younger?

Currently the multiple studies, long-term therapeutic arsenal includes treatment with various calorie restriction (and peptides has been shown calorie restriction mimetics), to increase the lifespans of antioxidants, glycation animals by up to 40 percent inhibitors, telomerase and significantly decrease activators, stem cells and substances such as melatonin, mortality rates in aging humans while enhancing carnosine, metformin, physiological function, deprenyl and some others. physical performance and To add to this list, emerging overall health. research over the past four decades has uncovered the The Aging Process powerful life-extending Aging, or senescence, is a potential of peptide complex biological process bioregulators. These and trying to describe it biologically active short invariably involves words chains of amino acids have with negative connotations: the ability to repair genetic alterations occurring with decline, decay, degeneration, death etc. One (very age: they directly bind with
unpleasant) definition of aging is “the collection of changes that render human beings progressively more likely to die.” (1) A more detailed description is “a progressive loss of physiological integrity, leading to impaired function and increased vulnerability.” (2) So, to combine these, we can say that aging is associated with accumulating physiological impairments that lead to decreased function and increased risk of age-related diseases, (i.e., cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, etc.) and of course mortality. One of the lead researchers on peptide bioregulators and the genetic mechanisms of aging, Professor Vladimir Khavinson, (Director of the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology, among other scientific positions), takes the definition a step further with this graphic description of aging which he describes
as: “the gradual involution of tissues and development of organism malfunctioning [that] appears at end of the reproductive period and becomes more pronounced with age.” (3) The term involution denotes the shriveling, or shrinking of organs, or tissues that occurs over time due to reasons we’ll examine in the next section. Aging results in disturbances of the major regulatory systems in the body, (nervous, endocrine, and immune systems) and according to Khavinson, the atrophy of the thymus (immune system) and the pineal gland (neuroendocrine system) are the major manifestations of age-related decline. (4) Studies outlined below demonstrate that restoration of these and other organs results in dramatic improvement in physiological function and lengthening of lifespan in animals and humans.
Professor Vladimir Khavinson is the former President of the European region of the International Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics; the main gerontologist of the Government of St. Petersburg and Director of the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology.

Khavinson found that the peptide extracts he had isolated produced restorative effects in cells and tissues of the organ from which the particular peptide had originally been derived. (5) For instance, thymic peptides stimulated immunity (4,8) and pineal peptides induced the pineal gland to manufacture melatonin. (4,8, see figures 2 and 3 respectively).

all demonstrated beneficial effects on the condition and function of the respective gland, organ or tissues. (8) Amazingly, peptides isolated from organs of young animals were shown to trigger protein synthesis and restore the functions of aging, deteriorating organs in old animals. (4) For example, pineal peptides improved several aspects of age-related endocrine dysfunction by restoring reproductive function and fertility in old female rats that had undergone a process equivalent to menopause in women; (4) and increasing nightly melatonin production, normalizing daily cortisol secretion, decreasing glucose and insulin levels in aging rhesus monkeys.

animals were equally (if not more) compelling. In numerous studies over the course of three decades, longterm treatment with peptides isolated from thymus and pineal gland increased the average life span in drosophila (fruit flies), rats and mice by 20 to 40 percent (with some animals reaching their species maximum life span), slowed changes in biomarkers of aging and considerably suppressed tumor development. (4, see figure 5) These results have enormous implications for preventing cancer, retarding aging and extending life span in humans.

Another Peptide-Mediated Longevity Mechanism: Telomerase Activation Besides stimulation of protein synthesis, Khavinson found that another genetic mechanism was operating to account for these impressive longevity results. In an experiment on cultured human lung fibroblasts (connective tissue cells), the addition of pineal peptide activated the telomerase gene and lengthened telomeres. Aging is associated with a decrease in the ability of cells to divide, (necessary for the construction and repair of tissues) due to the progressive shortening of structures called telomeres. Telomeres are the protective “caps” at the ends of chromosomes and telomerase is an enzyme that adds repetitive DNA sequences to these “caps” each time a cell divides. (During cell division, telomeric portions of DNA are lost due to an inherent problem of incomplete

end-replication. Telomerase ensures the complete copying of DNA repeats so that telomeres can maintain their length.) Most of the body’s cells, (excluding reproductive cells) can divide only a finite number of times, the socalled Hayflick limit, according to a programmed genetic clock that results in decreased telomerase production with age, leading to progressive shortening of telomeres, until cell division stops altogether. This process, known as replicative senescence, ultimately leads to aging and age-related diseases. Khavinson found that the addition of pineal peptide to cultured human cells activated the telomerase gene to synthesize telomerase, resulting in lengthened telomeres and an increased number of cell divisions, overcoming the Hayflick limit. (4,13,14) This finding undoubtedly contributes to the extension of life span documented in the animal experiments.

With such remarkable results in cell culture and animal studies, Khavinson’s interest turned toward testing the peptides’ telomere lengthening effects in humans, those results are shown in figure 6. As can be seen, in the study of 121 patients aged 60-80 years old, the use of the pineal peptide bioregulator produced an average increase of telomere length between 11% and 19%. Biologic Reserve - the Capacity to go the Distance According to Khavinson, and as his experiments in rats and mice demonstrate, the potential or maximum animal lifespan is approximately 30 to 40 percent higher than the actual average lifespan (4) for a particular species, so does this finding extend to humans as well? Well, for example, we know that humans can live to between 100 and 120 years old, (with the record for human longevity set at 122 years by Jeanne Calment of
70-75 years
30-45 years
France), which is an extra 30 to 40 years above the average human lifespan of 80 years. This capacity for three to four additional decades of life is what Khavinson calls the “biologic reserve.” (3) (See Figure 7.) Omitting factors such as predation, plagues, famine, wars, homicide, etc., why are animals and humans not reaching their species maximum lifespans? It is surmised it is because, that largely aging is a genetically determined and mediated process with inherent limitations. For example, the telomere shortening and replicative senescence that we just discussed is one glitch in the genetic program of aging. Another is altered gene expression, the decline of endogenous peptide production and ergo impaired protein synthesis. As we saw earlier, tissue-specific peptides regulate the activity of particular genes in order to manufacture proteins: each peptide binds its amino acid Disturbances: - biorhythms - water - food Changes in the expression and structure of genes

Human Studies with Peptide Bioregulators After the experiments on drosophila, rats, mice and monkeys, the obvious and immediate question was whether the impressive results could be duplicated in humans. A slew of studies, many of them large-scale, were performed in the Soviet Union to find out, specifically with regard to improving physiological function, preventing and ameliorating diseases and enhancing longevity. In one of these trials, seniors aged 60 to 74 years were treated with pineal peptide for 12 years, and older seniors aged 75 to 89 were treated with both pineal and thymus peptides for six years. Control groups for each age category received only vitamins.
In this and other human trials, Khavinson calculated mortality rates, (the number of deaths in each of the control and treatment groups over a period of time) as an inverse indicator of longevity (i.e., a decreased mortality rate is equivalent to an increased survival rate, indicating that more people are staying alive longer). Unlike the animal experiments in which the lifespans of short-lived species could be easily measured, obviously, it was not practical or possible to conduct human studies over several decades to determine the ages at death of the longest-living people, so instead mortality rates were used. The results showed that, compared to controls, those in the combined peptide treatment group
demonstrated improved brain, immune, endocrine and cardiovascular function, as well as increased bone density, more youthful nocturnal melatonin levels and, as expected, lowered mortality rates, (see figure 9). On this last point, in the 60 to 74 year old group receiving the pineal peptide bioregulator, the mortality rate was about half (22 percent) that of the control group (44 percent) over the course of 12 years. Meanwhile, the older seniors aged 75 to 89 years receiving both thymus and pineal gland preparations for six years cut their mortality rate even further, to 33 percent, compared to 82 percent in their control group â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a significant and remarkable improvement, especially in
this older age group. (4) Khavinson also conducted several studies on the effects of peptide bioregulators on industrial workers in Russia who are often submitted to unsatisfactory conditions with negative health consequences, including premature aging. Some large studies were done on hundreds of employees of the automobile and electricity industries who exhibited physical improvements and protection against aging in response to treatment with various combinations of peptide bioregulators. The largest of these was on thousands of workers at Gazprom, a huge gas extraction and gas transportation company in Siberia. These employees are exposed to extreme

atrophy, loss of function, disease development, and shortened life span. 2. Through the regulation of particular genes in particular tissues, peptides have the ability to reinitiate a process stalled by age, namely protein synthesis, leading to the repair and rebuilding of damaged tissues and organs and restoration of their main functions. 3. When used in combination, their rejuvenating effects are not just organ-specific but system-wide, resulting in significant increases in life span in animals and decreased mortality rates in humans, along with lowered disease incidence, reduced

Conclusion We’ve covered a lot of territory in this article, so let’s recap the main points. 1. Biologically active tissuespecific peptides correct agerelated genetic malfunctions which would otherwise result in the typical degenerative process of aging: organ
biological age, and improved physiological function and physical performance, all of which indicate enhanced biological reserve. 4. Through the peptide regulation of aging, humans now have the potential opportunity to add two or three (or perhaps more) decades of life to perhaps achieve the longevity of centenarians, or even supercentenarians, while remaining active, functional, vibrant and healthy. The studies highlight that the two most significant peptide bioregulators to date, in this respect are those emanating from the thymus and the pineal glands.

environmental and work conditions that result in increased incidence of chronic diseases, premature aging and higher than average mortality rates. Khavinson developed the “Program of Age-Related Pathology Prevention and Professional Longevity Extension” to counter these negative effects and restore health to these workers. Over 11,000 employees, (aged 35 to 60) received six oral peptides (immune, brain, blood vessels, bronchi, liver and cartilage) for 30 days. A control group of 3,000 workers received oral multivitamins for the same duration and both groups were monitored for one year. The results showed that the peptide bioregulator treated group cut the frequency of acute respiratory disease by more than half and the overall incidence of disease by two-thirds, compared to the control group. In addition, they demonstrated improved work performance and attendance, reduced “biological age” (a measure of mental and physical capacity,

WHY DO WOMEN LIVE LONGER THAN MEN? By Dr. Marios Kyriazis
It is a known fact that, in general, women live longer than men. All life expectancy calculations over the past years tend to show that females live several years longer compared to males, as a group (see figure 1).

It is a known fact that, in general, women live longer than men. All life expectancy calculations over the past years tend to show that females live several years longer compared to males, as a group (see figure 1). There are several theories trying to explain this phenomenon and some concepts are better

supported by research than others. This discussion refers to the rate of aging process in regard to gender and not to the individual perception of aging. In other words, it is about the biological mechanisms which may be causing men to age faster than women and not about how males or females may subjectively feel ‘old’.

Aging Diseases of aging
Life time When we look at the death rate in men, a few facts are obvious. In young men, death is usually due to accidents, (as men tend to take more risks compared to women). In contrast, older men commonly die from agerelated degenerative diseases such as stroke, heart disease and similar. This makes sense and reflects life in the wild: men needed to be stronger and more muscular than women, in order to be able to deal successfully with the rigours of physical life, (accidents, fighting and manual work etc.) We know that muscle growth and testosterone production are stimulated by a specific signalling pathway, known as the mechanical (mammalian) Target of Rapamycin –mTOR. So, in young men, mTOR seems to be beneficial as it makes them better able to survive, although we also know that in older men many aging signs may be accelerated when we enhance mTOR and these signs may be reduced when we inhibit mTOR. For example, an active mTOR pathway in older men may accelerate the risk of cancer, dementia and atherosclerosis, when at the same time; any agents that inhibit mTOR also delay these
manifestations of aging. The point here is that the specific example of mTOR is indicative of ‘antagonistic pleiotropy’, when an expression of a gene or a factor may be beneficial early in life (assuring good function when young) but becomes deleterious later in life, (accelerating aging and risk of death) when strength and stamina are less relevant, following reproduction, (see figure 2). Ed. - for more information about mTOR inhibitors please see Dr. Kyriazis article that appeared in Aging Matters™ issue 5, 2015. In this respect, two general aims may have practical relevance in clinical situations: • Aim to enhance mTOR function in young men and • Aim to inhibit mTOR function in older men. People who take supplements to modulate their mTOR function should be aware of this issue and act according to their age- this is why I always suggest that an expert physician should be involved in all cases of antiaging medication regimes. Let me return to the case of testosterone. As mentioned above, testosterone improves muscle mass and strength in young men and it is upregulated by mTOR, but a
Figure 2: The relationship between testosterone, other compounds and mTOR with regards to aging vs healthy growth.
too high activity of mTOR contributes to aging (1, 2). However, the issue is complicated because we also know that testosterone increases muscle mass in frail older people too, so it can be used to improve physical function in later life (3). This is also true of other androgens which protect against cardiovascular disease and other chronic conditions (4). On balance, it seems that certain people could benefit from testosterone supplementation in later life, while others could not (5), so it is important to involve an expert practitioner in choosing suitable products and monitor the blood levels of the different hormones.
Deprenyl (selegiline) In a study, administration of deprenyl in laboratory rats resulted in an increased sperm count and high levels of testosterone (6). This aligns well with the discussion above, which may suggest that high testosterone in young life is beneficial, whereas it becomes less relevant in older life. The value of deprenyl supplementation has been shown in several experiments involving older men too (7) so it may be that deprenyl has several modulating effects: valuable both in the old and in the young, but acting through different mechanisms in the different age groups (8).

“Many natural mechanisms ensure that prolonged or enhanced reproduction also means early aging... Therefore, it follows that shorter periods of reproduction are associated with a slowing down of aging.” Metformin An interesting study sheds some light (and poses many questions!) with regards to the function of metformin and longevity in men. The authors found that metformin causes significantly more health benefits in women compared to men (9). The point here is that women may react differently to the same substance compared to men and the reasons for this are unknown, although it is tempting to speculate that there is a hormonal link. In this study, the antidiabetic effects of metformin were more pronounced in women than in men. If metformin has any life prolonging effects, (see the TAME initiative) then these may be related to the gender of the patient, as well as to their age. It would be interesting to see if women treated with metformin live longer than men treated
with it. So, there is a definite interplay between age, gender, and metformin (which is also acting as an mTOR modulator- figure 3). Longevity and reproduction We know that aging is strongly related to reproduction. Many natural mechanisms ensure that prolonged or enhanced reproduction also means early aging, (see figure 4) and the rationale of this is well explained by the ‘disposable soma’ theory (10). Therefore, it follows that shorter periods of reproduction are associated with a slowing down of aging. Men are able to reproduce for longer but their lifespan is reduced, whereas women, who stop reproducing by middle age, live longer. This may reflect an underlying law of nature which states that: Life must continue -
so you either: • Live a shorter life but have a lot of offspring and thus life continues (through your offspring), or • Live a longer life but have less offspring and thus life continues (through you living longer) This hypothesis is supported by the fact that eunuchs, (men without testicles) live generally longer than other normal men. In some cases up to 14-19 years longer (11). These comments are very simplistic but they carry the general point I want to make. If you are interested in this subject you can read articles which examine the issue in more depth (12) and my research (13). The jogging heart Among one of the theories proposed in order to explain the gender differences in longevity is the “jogging female heart” idea – the idea
that a woman’s heart rate increases during the second half of her menstrual cycle, offering the same benefits as moderate exercise (even though the woman is not actually exercising). The result is a delayed risk of cardiovascular disease later in life and an increased overall longevity. In a relatively old paper, the authors report that endogenous estradiol can affect the heart rate and increases cardiac output by 20% during the second half of the menstrual cycle (14). This is comparable to the physiological effects of exercise and so young, menstruating women may have an added benefit: an improved cardiovascular health without the need to exercise as much as men need to.

The National Institute on Aging (NIA) announced the final results of testing from three government labs regarding the patented antioxidant nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA). All three labs agreed
By Phil Micans, MS, PharmB that NDGA extended lifespan by a resounding 12% in mice (1) - see figure 1. When some read this astounding news, they were skeptical. With a note of cynicism and doubt in their voices, they said this report

“During the 1980s, researchers extensively tested NDGA in humans, mice and dogs. Results indicated that NDGA extended lifespan in a variety of mammals.” was probably hyperbole and the Federal government is not to be trusted. Yet these same three government labs had also conducted lifespan studies with muchhyped anti-aging remedies, resveratrol, curcumin, green tea, oxaloacetic acid and triglyceride oil (2) and found that these five supplements did not extend lifespan in mice. During the 1980s, researchers extensively tested NDGA in humans, mice and dogs. Results indicated that NDGA extended lifespan in a variety of mammals. Even the US Patent and Trademark Office approved these results and granted a patent to Dr. Richard Lippman for NDGA, (no. 4,695,590) as part of his unique formula, a formula he developed to slow aging which was based on his extensive free radical research (3). Background Study of NDGA Before Dr. Lippman was awarded a US patent on NDGA, several attorneys voiced skepticism. In firm language, they stated that every law school student knows that two types of
patents are never granted: a patent on a perpetual motion machine and a patent on a fountain-of-youth remedy. Apparently, Dr. Lippman convinced patent examiners that his clinical human, mice and dog studies of NDGA were sufficient to warrant a patent with claims to retard human aging. These studies were also sufficient for the drug licensing authorities of Sweden and Italy to grant Dr. Lippman the rights to sell NDGA under the name ‘Aging Control Formula 228’ (ACF228®). Interestingly, a prominent American businessman, Glenn Braswell, had heard Dr. Lippman’s story, but Mr. Braswell doubted that it was sold at the Vatican pharmacy in Rome, Italy. Consequently, when took his wife on a trip to Rome — much to his surprise he found that ACF228® was indeed sold at the Vatican pharmacy with the pope’s blessings! ACF228® Is Based on Extensive Free Radical Research Today, we know free radicals are not antiwar activists out on bail. But when Dr. Richard
Dr. Richard Lippman at home in Hawaii
Lippman was doing research in Sweden many years ago, most people thought the term ‘free radicals’ referred to some kind of hippie politics. No one then knew about these molecular sharks’ devastating effects on the human body and their role in aging. Indeed, only twentyfive years ago, free radical chemistry and the toxic effects of free radicals on the human body were unknown to most of the general public and even to many doctors and medical researchers. Dr. Lippman first learned about the free radical theory of aging as an undergraduate student. When he began doing graduate research work in cell biology, he and his colleagues held conferences at
Pharmacia-Upjohn and the University of Uppsala to discuss the exciting findings of Professor Denham Harman, whose experimental work at the University of Nebraska in the 1950s showed that the life spans of mice could be extended with special antioxidant supplementation. The press and public responded; “So what?” However, Sweden is well known in science and engineering for its industrial and
“The Swedish Research Council financed years of Dr. Lippman’s research at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm and at the University of Uppsala, Scandinavia’s oldest university...” technical advances, so Dr. Lippman became the leader of a large medical staff that encouraged this progressive research. Raising Funds for Research Dr. Lippman wanted to take Professor Harman’s work one-step further and explore the relationship between free radicals and aging. He turned to Professor Sven Brolin, chair of the University of Uppsala’s Department of Medical Cell Biology and Professor Gunnar Wettermark, chair of the Royal Institute of Technology’s Department of Physical Chemistry, for assistance in raising funds for research. Dr. Lippman was successful, receiving significant medical and chemical grants from the Swedish Research Council to develop antiaging strategies based on Professor Harman’s groundbreaking discovery of the action of free radicals and the role of radical scavengers (anti-oxidants) in destroying or inhibiting them. The Swedish Research Council financed
years of Dr. Lippman’s research at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm and at the University of Uppsala, Scandinavia’s oldest university, which has an anatomy lecture hall built in the 15th century. Dr. Lippman’s research, into the role that free radicals play in the breakdown of the aging body, led him to develop one of the most potent antioxidant combinations yet known, a unique cocktail containing NDGA, it is called ACF228®. No Typical Scientist Dr. Lippman’s normal lab attire—jeans, a khaki shirt, and ostrich leather boots— breaks from the conventional notion of a white-coated scientist. Before his work in antiaging research that made him famous, he ate junk food. Now, a typical lunch for him is salmon sashimi and salad or bi-bim-bop with a bowl of miso soup. He even developed his own recipe for sugar-free, gluten-free, walnut
HO
cinnamon pumpkin muffins. t In speaking, Dr. Lippman presents an easy smile and laugh. He may not look like a typical scientist, but his passion for longevity research is real. His innovative research into free radical pathology helped put antioxidants on the map, in the dictionary and in the supermarket. Once funding was in place, Dr. Lippman gathered a team of five prominent Swedish scientists to help him develop methods for measuring free radicals and biochemical changes related to aging: Professor Agneta Nilsson, a nutritionist and alternative medical professional with advanced degrees in nursing and teaching; Dr. Ambjörn Ågren, M.D., PhD, who had received numerous awards in the field of emergency medicine; Professor Mathius Uhlén, PhD, a civil engineer, molecular biologist, and later, professor and chair of the Royal Institute of Technology’s Department Molecular Biology; Evald
Cellular Model—A Better Choice The research team’s first task was to find a cellular model rather than an animal model to test for life extension, since Professor Harman’s model of waiting for mice to grow old and die was costly and took years of patience before the

Koitsalu, an engineer and expert in computer hardware and software; and Dr. Kaj Alverstrand, a psychologist and consultant to Volvo. With these tremendous financial and personnel resources, Dr. Lippman was able to achieve great leaps in the field. Indeed, Paul Glenn of the Paul Glenn Foundation for Antiaging Research said that Dr. Lippman’s work was; “light years ahead of everyone else!” Dr. Lippman’s research resulted in a patent for NDGA (see figure 2) and a multi-ingredient free radical scavenger product that promotes better health and longevity: ACF228®.

results came in. Dr. Lippman’s team had access to many different types of living cells in culture, such as human cells of the heart, brain, liver and central nervous system. In 1980, Dr. Lippman invented special probes that would penetrate cell interiors without harming them. For the first time in the history of cell biology, scientists were able to measure free radicals in living cells (4). The first probe, carnitinylmaleate luminol (CML), measured superoxide radicals in live human liver cells. Dr. Lippman and his team went on to test many different combinations of nutrients. Developing the formula combinations was a tedious process. Live cells were harvested from biopsies, then separated and kept metabolically alive in special culture dishes heated to a constant 98°F. The live cells were removed as needed by the research team and tested
for their health by means such as measurements of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the power source or ‘gasoline’ of most cell activities. Then the cell cultures were impregnated with special CML probes and incubated with different mixtures of vitamins and nutrients. Dr. Lippman’s team eventually tested 227 different mixtures to find an optimal mixture with pronounced longevitypromoting characteristics. Mixture number 228 was found to work best and this and several other promising mixtures such as 223 were tested further in mice and human volunteers. Now named ACF228®, the mixture proved successful in extending mice health and life spans, (see figure 3)
Scientific Community Astounded The team published its results in more than twenty prominent medical journals. The work astounded the Swedish scientific community and Dr. Lippman was nominated for a Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1996. Further tests were conducted on hundreds of human volunteers recruited from several Swedish hospitals (3). The volunteers were tested to establish their normal levels of fatty-acid peroxides, which are free-radical downstream products and then were fed varying amounts of ACF228®. Once again, the mixture known as ACF228® caused peroxide levels to decline the fastest. Dr. Lippman and his researchers performed other human tests that indicated ACF228® also had beneficial effects on the skin and sexual function (3). “We found that the ACF228®
formula is truly beneficial,” Dr. Lippman says. “It was especially helpful for middleaged and older people; their liver function became like that of teenagers. Often people experience reduced liver function as they age, especially if they have abused their bodies with heavy consumption of alcohol and a high sugar diet, causing metabolic syndrome (5). ACF228® offers protection from a multitude of free radicals in the body.” Ultimately, the ACF228® formula was approved for use by regulatory agencies in both Sweden and Italy and then became patented in the United States.

The unique and complex formula contained in each capsule of ACF228® is shown below: • 100 mg N-acetyl cysteine This helps to destroy the most common radical, the superoxide anion, (a negative Ion) radical through a process known as quenching.
• 3 mg nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) This helps to stop fatty acids, (the essential building blocks of all cells) from becoming radicalized.
• 5 mg butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) This destroys the most damaging of all radicals, the hydroxyl radical. The hydroxyl radical has only a nanosecond half-life and thus, ordinary antioxidant vitamins or cellular enzymes cannot quench it.
• 100 mcg selenium This is a second-tier radical scavenger renowned for helping recharge the cells’ antioxidant reserves. It also bonds to the toxic metal mercury and other heavy metals.
• 0.025 mcg catalase This essential enzyme is critical to deactivating and converting hydrogen peroxide to ordinary water. Insufficient catalase increases the likelihood of hydroxyl radicals.
• 83 mg l-carnosine This is a premier anti-glycator (anti-cross-linker) that helps to counter the hardening of the lens of the eye and improves arterial elasticity.
• 50 mg dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) This is the premier extractor of heavy metals, through a process called ‘chelation.’
• Vitamins B6 (17 mg), B12 (10 mcg) and methylfolate (800 mcg). These are essential methylation vitamins for any serious antiaging program.
• Also included are iodine (1.5 mg) and potassium iodide (2.5 mg), these help to improve thyroid function.
Indeed, based on these criteria, Dr. Lippman could rest easy. But he isn’t resting. The energetic, youthful-looking father of three sons and four grandchildren still goes to his lab daily. And what is this Nobel Prize nominee working on today for the betterment of humankind tomorrow?
Dr. Lippman continues his medical research, focusing on improved methods of delivering important vitamins and hormones, including transdermal delivery methods. “The response to ACF228® worldwide has been great and that is indeed gratifying,” says Dr. Lippman. “You know,
we should all be able to live to 120 years and perhaps even beyond. We don’t because of the free radical damage and declining repair hormones our cellular systems sustain. Our brains shrink, our arteries become hardened and our liver function declines, mostly because of free radical

SPOTLIGHT: GHRPS A R E AL ‘OR AL’ ALTER NATIVE TO G H INJEC TION S Ever since Dr. Rudman’s work in the 1980s and then the release of Dr. Klatz’s book ‘grow young with HGH’ in the 1990s, there has been a strong interest in the use of growth hormone (GH) in antiaging medicine. Dr. Rudman’s research concluded that after injecting his elderly patients with GH, many of them had reversals of their biological age markers by as much as 20-years; specifically having noted improved skin, hair, muscle mass, decreased fat levels and enhanced levels of stamina, strength and well-being. It’s not entirely surprising given the multifaceted role of growth hormone, plus as its name suggests it is involved in the growth and repair of tissues, but unfortunately blood levels of it decline dramatically past the age of 35 (see figure 1), despite the fact that there is evidence that the pituitary gland continues making significant amounts of it.
GH injections The issue with injecting GH, (brand names include Genotropin®, Saizen® and Zomacton®), other than its expense, is that it does have to be injected to be effective, this is because as a 191 chain amino-acid it simply can’t be absorbed via any other route, thus daily injections can become a chore. Furthermore, many countries have decided that GH injections be classified as a controlled substance, partly because of its anabolic actions. Controlled substances often require special import and export licenses; this is over-and-above the requirement for a prescription. Furthermore, the research of Dr. Richard Walker has highlighted that bolus injections of GH are not bioidentical and that as they induce spikes of GH into the blood they could end up damaging the pituitary gland, leading to a down-regulation of its own production of GH, or even to stop GH production altogether.
GHRPs But meanwhile, Dr. Walker’s research has shown that the use of GHRPs, (growth hormone releasing peptides) have a much safer profile whilst enjoying the same benefits- even if they provide them a little more slowly. We would recommend that you read his extensive article in the Aging Matters™ magazine, No3, 2014 to understand fully how they operate. What we can say is
that GHRPs, (GHRP2, GHRP6 and sermorelin) have the following benefits: • They can be sublingually, intra-nasally and even orally, passing into blood and thus avoiding the need for needles. • Their feedback loop means that they cannot cause the pituitary to down-regulate. • GHRPs are not controlled substances. • Rather than inducing a spike of GH in the blood, GHRPs augment (improve) each release of GH naturally into the blood, for which there are several peaks daily, (although the rising from bed peak is the highest one) - see figure 2.
Synergy Sermorelin is actually the precursor to GH, being the first 29 amino acids and is applied via the sublingual route. Sermorelin’s function may be to release existing stores of GH from the pituitary- rather than encourage more production as a pure agonist would. Dr. Walker has highlighted that combining sermorelin with GHRP2 or GHRP6 has a highly synergistic effect, in some cases eliciting up to a 5x greater quantity of GH into blood, an action that can be equivocated to using injectable GH itself. Note: You can also hear Dr. Walker discuss this with us on the IAS video page:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5OlEhbM7lQ
Differences • GHRP6 may induce more hunger feelings than GHRP2 and could improve levels of IGF1 more. Therefore this option may be better recommend for those who want to put on muscle mass. • GHRP2 may create less hunger feelings and therefore could be preferable to those who want to stimulate GH for fat loss. Also as the GHRP6 (Releasing-Pro™) is a nasal spray, those who don’t like that feeling may prefer GHRP2-Pro™ since it is an oral liquid simply swallowed.
Figure 1 (top): The typical GH levels in blood with age, note that ‘geriatric’ levels are reached as early as during the 30’s. Figure 2 (middle) shows the 24 hour profile of subcutaneous (and also intravenous) GH. Compare that to figure 3 (bottom), the natural peaks of GH in both young and elderly patients. Only GHRPs naturally amplify these bioidentical patterns.
Summary GHRPs have created a genuine efficacious alternative; they are simpler/ easier to use and at the same time they have a better/ safer profile than injectable GH.

Supplement facts:
Description: MZS is Dr. Walter Pierpaoli’s original melatonin formula containing the additional and supportive agents zinc and selenium. MZS is produced to pharmaceutical standards in Italy and unlike other melatonin preparations MZS has been designed to produce a night peak of melatonin between 1AM and 3AM to mimic the natural behavior of the pineal gland. Dr. Pierpaoli’s extensive animal and human research has shown that this is important because this action helps to stabilize circadian rhythms, improve hormonal cyclicity and boost immunity.

Our melatonin has been formulated by the world’s foremost melatonin expert Dr. Walter Pierpaoli, his Melatonin Zn Se, or MZS™, is totally unique since it is designed to mimic the natural night peak of melatonin- to leave you feeling refreshed and alert the following day.
What does Melatonin do? Melatonin is vital to protect our hormonal system, regulate immunity and repair our body’s cells. It is commonly used by shift workers and also to treat jet lag and age related sleep disorders, but its abilities go far beyond simply its sleep inducing properties.
The antioxidant effects of melatonin Melatonin is an extremely effective antioxidant; in fact on a molecule to molecule basis; melatonin has proved to be significantly more efficient in neutralizing toxic hydroxyl-
radicals than the two wellknown free radical scavengers, glutathione and mannitol.
ARMD. Remarkably this was true for both the wet and dry forms!
Melatonin’s effects on longevity
Why is Dr. Pierpaoli’s MZS™ more effective than other melatonin supplements?
Melatonin’s effect on longevity is well documented; in fact laboratory tests on rats and mice have demonstrated that melatonin increased their lifespans by 20%. Experts believe melatonin is a vital antiaging product because of its positive effect on aging. MZS™ and age-related macular degeneration Age related macular degeneration (ARMD) comes in two forms, wet and dry and is a notoriously difficult disorder to treat and is linked to blindness. A 24-month study, (published in NY Academy of Science, 2005, 1057:384-392) on 100 patients showed that after 3 months, the majority of patients taking 3 mg of Melatonin Zn Se nightly had halted the progression of their age related macular degeneration and at 6 months many showed reversal of their
There are three principal reasons, firstly it is of pharmaceutical quality at a dose of 3 mg, secondly it contains the synergistic ingredients of selenium and zinc, but thirdly and most importantly- it is designed to release at a very specific time. Dr. Pierpaoli’s research led him to perfect a formula that exactly mimics the pineal gland’s release of melatonin. Thus means that MZS™ is the only melatonin supplement to follow nature’s own night peak.

Melatonin is produced by the pineal gland at night to regulate our circadian rhythm, (sometimes called the sleep wake cycle). As we age the amount of melatonin we produce reduces resulting in many older people sleeping less and having a lower quality of sleep.

MZS™ is so much more than a sleep aid Melatonin has had so many published benefits it is impossible to list them all here. From jet lag and shift work to well-being and antiaging, no other melatonin supplement offers the endorsement of Dr. Pierpaoli, or the exact formula used in all of his renowned clinical trials. If you’ve tried other melatonin and didn’t notice any significant effect, then we highly recommend you try Dr Pierpaoli’s MZS™ for a superior experience.

How much should I take? Take half to one 3 mg tablet at bedtime only; do not take more than two tablets. By taking MZS™ between 9pm and 11pm you will create a night peak between 1am and 3am, this is the most natural and normal time to have the highest melatonin levels.

SPOTLIGHT: BIOCLIP ® CUFF MONITOR ING YOU R VA SCU L AR CONDITION The BioClip® Cuff is a simple way of assessing both your blood pressure condition and your arterial flexibility; plus, you can use the BioClip® Cuff in the comfort of your own home because you simply attach the device to your arm just like an ordinary blood pressure cuff. What does the BioClip® Cuff measure? The BioClip® Cuff provides a series of metabolic indicators that you can use to improve your lifestyle and so help to prevent the causes of cardiovascular disease. We all know the risks of being overweight, of having high cholesterol or suffering from high blood pressure. We also know how to reduce those risks – by exercising more, not smoking, reducing our alcohol intake and eating a balanced diet.
These include: • Diastolic blood pressure • Systolic blood pressure • The heart rate • Vascular condition – which linked to arterial flexibility. Few of us know about the hidden dangers of arterial inflexibility, or how to measure it. This is where the BioClip® Cuff is unique being as it is the first at-home device able of delivering this information to you within minutes.
What is arterial flexibility? The BioClip® Cuff works by evaluating your arterial flexibility, which experts say is one of the most important

risk factors when it comes to assessing the likelihood of a heart attack or stroke. Arteries are important because they’re responsible for blood flow around your body via your cardiovascular system. To work properly, it’s crucial that your arteries are kept healthy.
The poorer your vascular condition, the greater your chances of serious health issues Our arteries usually stiffen with advancing age. This brings with it a greater risk of a potentially fatal heart attack, heart failure or stroke, as is shown in figure 1.
You may not recognise the heart failure symptoms as your arteries begin to stiffen Unfortunately arterial stiffness can occur without warning. Often there are no symptoms of cardiovascular disease and
people don’t suspect they are in danger until they suffer an attack. Figure 2 highlights that arterial stiffness is strongly correlated with mortality The BioClip® Cuff provides a cardiovascular condition scale, shown by LED bars - that are either within the green zone (good), yellow zone (fair) or red zone (poor). It is important to note that like blood pressure, vascular condition should be monitored over time and not just taken as one reading. The BioClip® Cuff makes this simple by averaging your tests over time and therefore provides a more accurate result. BioClip® Cuff provides reassurance and a vital early warning system that helps you to be aware of changes and therefore keep your vascular condition in check.

The BioClip® Cuff is easy to use The BioClip® Cuff doesn’t puncture your skin and is used on its own, without any additional attachments. The procedure is straightforward and you don’t need to link to a computer, as the results are shown on the BioClip® Cuff screen. Note: If you want to see it in action there is a video available at the IAS website. Armed with this information it’s easy to keep a check on your cardiovascular health and the risks associated with arterial stiffness, such as heart attacks and strokes. Armed with this information it is possible to make changes to your lifestyle and supplement program to improve results and keep you biologically younger! Above all, the BioClip® Cuff provides reassurance and a vital early warning system that helps you to be aware of changes and therefore keep your vascular condition in check.

SPOTLIGHT: BIOIDENTICAL HORMONES NATU R AL ESTROG EN S AND PROG ESTERONE FOR WOMEN IAS carries a wide range of bioidentical hormones - a term that means ‘natural to and in the body’. In this featured section we are focusing on the use of natural estrogens and progesterone for women, which of course are normally utilised to aid the menopause. When hormone replacement therapy (HRT) was developed in the 1920s, estrogens had to be derived from horse urine because a laboratory solution was too difficult/ expensive to synthesize. But today everything has changed, yet this ancient practice continues- these facts have been pointed out by Dr. Wright in his best-selling book ‘Stay Young & Sexy’ Horse estrogens are, as you might expect, not identical to human; after all humans don’t have manes nor do they have hooves! Yet the industry is stuck in this old loop, despite the fact that natural (bioidentical) estrogens can be easily produced now. Some people believe that the known side-effects from ‘traditional HRT’ are due to the fact that the hormones given are not correct.
Above: Stay Young & Sexy By Dr. Wright

Esnatri™, a unique tri-estrogen Esnatri™ is our bioidentical triple estrogen cream, which many women use, confident they have chosen the best bioidentical estrogen cream available. It comes directly from the work of Dr. Wright who has shown that the majority of women produce estrogens in the ratios of 90% estriol, 7% estrone and 3% estrone.
Above: As Dr. Wright himself has said many times; “we only have to copy nature, the right molecules at the right times and doses.”
Most tri-estrogen preparations attempt to replicate the human hormones estriol, estradiol and estrone, apply them in the ratio of 80:10:10, while some even entirely over-look estriol, claiming
it is a weak estrogen. But, women naturally produce high levels of estriol and it is considered to have anticarcinogenic effects.
Esnatri™ use The Esnatri™ cream can be applied by daily rotation to your neck, upper chest, breasts and behind the knees, or inner thighs. A typical starting dose is 2 mg, start from day one (of what would have been the start of your menstrual cycle) and continue until day 25. Then you should stop for five days, before repeating the application at the start of the next menstrual cycle. During these last few days, the estrogen receptors are being allowed to ‘rest’ as they have been accustomed.
Progesterone Progesterone is the counterbalance to estrogens. Indeed, whilst women can significantly decline in estrogen levels during menopausethey rarely reach zero production levels, whereas progesterone
can sometimes not be measured at all in elderly women. It is also the low of progesterone that most significantly impacts bone strength, leading onto osteoporosis, so there are numerous reasons to ensure that progesterone is also taken alongside an estrogen therapy. IAS provides a 5% strength natural progesterone cream. Typical doses are 25 mg to 30 mg of progesterone applied on day 10 and continuing to 25. The start date varies according to the usual timing of your ovulation. Note: As with the Esnatri™ cream, stop for the last five days of your cycle so that the estrogen receptors have their accustomed ‘rest’ period. Remember, your hormone replacement therapy should be overseen by a physician and should not be undertaken if you have undergone cancer treatment.

SPOTLIGHT: BIOIDENTICAL HORMONES OX Y TOCIN FOR PA SS ION AND S E X IAS carries a wide range of bioidentical hormones - a term that means ‘natural to and in the body’. In this featured section we are focusing on oxytocin. What is oxytocin? Oxytocin is a hormone produced by the hypothalamus, but excreted via the pituitary gland. Its orthodox medicine role is to help women give birth, since the large dose that’s injected helps relaxes the uterus and alleviates the passage of the child into the world for the mother.
Above: Dr. Thierry Hertoghe
However, as we will discover and has been highlighted by Dr. Thierry Hertoghe’s book; ‘passion, sex and longevity, the oxytocin adventure’ -it has many other roles to play too.
The love hormone Oxytocin has been dubbed ‘the love hormone’, why would this be? Principally because oxytocin can induce feelings of bonding and care and not just
between individuals, but even with animals too! Oxytocin measurements have been taken between lovers, friends, relatives, parents and their children etc. From those results, it has been noted that oxytocin levels are higher when they are in their presence. Mothers naturally bond with their children, but even men, (especially those who experience the live birth), express their emotions as wanting to care and protect their offspring, these effects may be attributable to the release of oxytocin hence triggering the bond. On the other side of the coin, psychopaths are notoriously low in their oxytocin levels, which may be a cause of their uncaring feelings towards other humans.
The pain and orgasm connection Fibromyalgia can be a very debilitating disorder with a lot of pain, sometimes constant for those who suffer with it. In women it was noted that when they were experiencing an orgasm they felt no pain
at all. Later, it transpired that women undergo a burst of oxytocin during orgasm. Trials were undertaken to see if oxytocin supplementation could alleviate the pain of fibromyalgia, there was some success, but the side-effect noted was that those women now enjoyed multiple orgasms! This was a fact picked up on by the popular press and is probably singularly the action most responsible for bringing oxytocin into the public gaze.
Synergy Dr. Hertoghe has explained that some folks will not feel the effects of oxytocin. This is principally because of two reasons, (if we consider that the dose is correct for that individual). Firstly, that some people are ‘low’ in their own principal sexhormone, so if a man is low testosterone, or if a woman is low estrogen, it is possible that oxytocin will not elicit its full potential in those persons. The other issue could be low vasopressin; vasopressin is a counterpart
to oxytocin, produced and released via the same glands. In cases of vasopressin deficiency, the patient may enhance the oxytocin experience by adding one or two sprays (10 IU each) of vasopressin via the Vaso-Pro™ nasal spray.
Dosing As might be expected doses are very dependent upon its use. However for social or sexual enhancement, one can consider 5 IU to 10 IU a ‘typical’ dose. In fact, Dr. Hertoghe has somewhat reduced the doses that he recommends in his book, (transmitted via personal conversation to me). Currently IAS is providing Oxy-Sub™ in 20 IU trouches (a soft sublingual tablet), these can therefore be cut into half or quarter for a dose of 5 or 10 IU and should be placed under the tongue and allowed to melt. The other option is Oxy-Pro™ which is applied intranasally delivering 10 IU per spray.
“...oxytocin can induce feelings of bonding and care and not just between individuals, but even with animals too!” Dr. Thierry Hertoghe’s book, “Passion, sex and longevity - the oxytocin adventure”, details its roles and uses in a ‘how to’ guide form.

A B R E AK THROUG H FOR C ATAR AC T Can-C™ eye-drops are the original™ brand- developed by Innovative Vision Products (IVP). This group were the first to research, publish and prove how eye-drops can reduce and even eradicate cataract. Accordingly there are active US and EU patents (and others pending) on this unique and special product. Unique formula:
Clinical trial:
Can-C™ eye-drops are the formula from the original published human trials. They contain a purified and racemized form of n-acetylcarnosine (made in Japan); this natural di-peptide has potent anti-glycating and antioxidant properties that prevents lipid peroxidation. Note that the formula is important- it’s not all about the n-acetylcarnosine; the specific carrier agents and their purity are also important. If you look at the Can-C™ formula you will see differences to the copycats, (remember it is only Can-C™ that is patented in recognition of the original work). If you want the best possible results in the fastest possible time, then choose Can-C™ to deliver them according to the clinical trials.
Patients placed two-drops of Can-C™ into their eyes twice daily for a 6-month period, the outcome was:
• 90% saw an improvement in their visual acuity.
• 88.9% of patients showed improvement in the clarity of their lens. There have been numerous reports of cataract shrinkage and even disappearance with documented evidence that Can-C™ eye-drops remain effective (and safe) more than 24-months later. The most commonly expressed initial reports are that glare is significantly improved, (for example night driving is much safer) and color perception is enhanced.
Improving eye-sight: More evidence is mounting that Can-C™ is efficacious for many conditions
including: • Cataracts (particularly the senile version) • Glaucoma • Presbyopia • Corneal disorders • Eye strain • Ocular inflammation • Blurred vision • Vitreous opacities and lesions • Diabetes mellitus complications • Contact lens users • Dry eye syndrome Of special interest may be to persons who wear contact lenses. This is because Can-C™ inhibits the accumulation of lactic acid and therefore contacts can be worn for longer periods without pain. We have also received reports that Can-C™ not only aids dry-eye syndrome with its lubricants, but that Can-C™ helps to unclog proteins from the lacrimal ducts, thus releasing more
Before: Right: A woman’s eye shows the cataract before treatment. Far Right: 5-months later after use of Can-C eye-drops (two drops twice daily), there is no longer a visible cataract and eyesight has improved.

S U PPLYING AND BAL ANCING OMEGA S NATU R ALLY Most people are familiar with the benefits of omega oils for their health and in particular to reduce inflammation. Indeed cod-liver oil supplements are the world’s most popular supplement, but recently Professor Brian Peskin’s research which is all contained in his new book – the PEO solution - is causing quite a stir and may make many folks to rethink and change their stance.
Professor Brian Peskin and the cover of his latest book - the PEO solution
We are referring to his discovery that the body naturally uses plant oils to make its own omega 3 and 6, thereby satisfying a precise balance according to need- providing the ‘raw materials’ are available. Professor Peskin has termed the phrase PEO as the acronym for ‘parent essential oils.’ Professor Peskin states openly that he has found this information hidden in the scientific literature and never once found it referred to in the medical literature. Why does it matter? Because as he says, it means that physicians are unaware of these facts and therefore they continue to advocate super-physiological doses of omegas from fish oil, which may be actually doing more harm than good! It’s a lot to swallow, (no pun
intended) and we can’t do his research justice on a single page, which is why we recommend his book, or take a look at the Aging Matters™ magazine No1, 2015 in which Professor Peskin’s article is the lead story. Let’s summarise the advantages of the PEOs: • The plant oils live in our environment, (typically around 50-60°F); hence they do not go rancid at room temperature. Cold water fish live in a cold environment (typically around 30-40°F), therefore PEOs represent a much more stable product. • The PEOs are obviously a nonanimal source and therefore can be considered more suitable for those wanting to avoid animal based products. • The PEOs represent a sustainable source, since there is already too much ‘pressure’ on the seas to provide both fish and even krill stocks. • The PEOs enable the body to produce its own internal essential fatty acids (EFAs) and correct its own balance. This has not been shown to be the case with fish oil supplements.
Why not fish oil?
Figure: How is fish oil made? It often does not start as the healthiest possible source!

Because this peptide therapy is relatively cheap, highly specific, can be taken orally and doesn’t require any suppression of the immune system to operate fully (as stem cells do).
Original material from the trials The peptide bioregulators available via IAS are the bovine originals; sourced from carefully chosen Danish calves and processed through pharmaceutical processes and filters.

Dosing Doses are very dependent upon the need and unlike hormones these peptides do not have to be taken every day, hence making them a cost effective regime. A typical/ average use could be considered as follows: • Start with an intensive course: 2 capsules once a day for 30-days. • Thereafter use 2 capsules once a day for 10-days, repeat every 2, 3, 4 or even as little as 6-months.

It has been my antiaging supplement for more than 30-years.” One of the actions of centrophenoxine is to improve acetylcholine levels in the brain and it is this neurotransmitter that declines in Alzheimer’s diseaseleading to its devastating effects. Yet, centrophenoxine doesn’t make significant improvements for Alzheimer patients in this way, (note, there is another important action mentioned

Lipofuscin Lipofuscin is a waste material that accumulates in aging cells, especially those in the brain, heart, lungs and skin; indeed, in skin cells, lipofuscin can form part of the pigmented spots that are often referred to as ‘age’ or ‘liver’ spots. Lipofuscin accumulation can
in the brain, they are then referred to as ‘plagues’ and then become recognised trait of Alzheimer’s. Perhaps it is therefore centrophenoxine’s primary mode of action to help remove lipofuscin deposits. It does it so well, that it is currently believed to be the best tool commercially available to do so and so well, that in patients with visible ‘age’ or ‘liver’ spots in the skin; it is possible over several weeks of centrophenoxine supplementation to see them fade or even disappear. Such patients can also benefit from the knowledge, that at the same, lipofuscin deposits are being reduced in their heart, lungs and brain etc.

General cognitive benefits Classifying the precise benefits of the various smart-drugs can be tricky. Most individuals often simply refer to their ailing cognitive facilities as “memory loss.” However, a quick breakdown of that statement requires further evaluation in order to determine the precise nature of the problem. So which of the following is your main issue? • Short term memory • Medium term memory • Long term memory • Do you get bored easily? • Do you lack focus/ attention? • Does your mind quickly become tired? • Is the problem remembering new experiences later? (So called memory-imprinting) • Does it take too long time to recall memories? Centrophenoxine is best suited to the last problem. If your speech appears to be full of “ums” and “ers” - whilst your brain tries to catch up with your mouth, then it is likely that centrophenoxine will be an aid for you. In our experience, centrophenoxine should not only be considered for those concerned with the development of Alzheimer’s, but when utilized correctly it can help many people, especially those aged over 40, to hasten their recall speed, bringing clarity and order to both speech and thought.
Doses It is of course impossible to list all details of centrophenoxine use onto one page, but interested parties should ask for further details and read the articles with references that are available on the IAS website. A typical dose for the ‘average’ person is 250 mg once or twice daily; higher doses are necessary according to the varying degrees of Alzheimer’s.
Note: Centrophenoxine is synergistic with other smart-drugs, in particular choline based forms such as piracetam (Nootropil®); these additional benefits can be experienced by using them concurrently, although naturally both doses need to be adjusted downward to suit.

SPOTLIGHT: SMART DRUGS AND NUTRIENTS DEPR ENYL FOR FOCU S AND CONCENTR ATION Deprenyl is also known as selegiline, it was created in the 1960s by Professor Joseph Knoll from Hungary, principally as an aid to Parkinson’s patients - because deprenyl has a significant benefit to improve dopamine levels in the brain. Dopamine is the neurotransmitter most affected in Parkinson’s disease, in fact, deprenyl still remains a front line treatment for that disease.
Significant longevity studies
Morgenthaler, (as published in the book, Smart Drugs and Nutrients I), produced figure 2. It highlights that the loss of dopamine in humans with age, can be mapped against both the development of Parkinson’s and even death.
Mode of action For a long time deprenyl has been expressed as a MAO-b inhibitor, that it to say that is prevents the enzyme monoamine-oxidase type-b from destroying dopamine, ergo leading to its greater availability in the brain. The inhibition of the more common MAO-a can be problematic, leading to something called ‘the cheese effect,’ therefore this is not a side effect of deprenyl, although it should be noted that dopamine can inhibit type-a, but usually only at very high doses of 20mg. In more recent times, Professor Knoll has noted that there is another significant action of deprenyl and this is the raising, (albeit briefly) of PEA levels. PEA is a catecholamine activity enhancer that raises
Professor Joseph Knoll; now aged in his 90s but still active in pharmacological research.
Professor Knoll’s experiments with rats produced some of the most incredible longevity benefits that have ever been seen. When they were fed deprenyl in their food, they lived so much longer than those that were not, so much so, that even after the last non-treated rat died, the first of the deprenyl treated rats was yet to die! These results are shown in figure one: Note; interestingly and importantly, these results were verified independently in another study not conducted by Professor Knoll. Based on this research, Dean, Fowkes and
norepinephrine levels; this is a significant attention agent that is behind the primary mechanism of the famous Eugeroic drug- modafinil (Provigil®). To learn a great deal more about dopamine and deprenyl, we would recommend Professor Knoll’s books; ‘the brain and its self’, or ‘how selegiline/ deprenyl slows brain aging.’
Typical patient responses In patients who have mild cognitive impairment, or age related minor cognitive dysfunction, the most common report is of a significant improvement in their focus and concentration. Persons with higher dopamine levels often appear more ‘driven’ and ‘dedicated.’ Avoid overuse since it can lead to what may appear to be an oppressive behavior, as others around you are not so focused and ‘on the ball’ as you! This is why we recommend occasional breaks from deprenyl use, some advocate one week off in the month and others use it during the

Dosing Doses are as normal, based upon need and age. Whilst Parkinson’s patient will require large doses, a person wanting to improve their cognitive performance may want to typically consider 1mg to 3mg per day, with occasional breaks. Note: These doses do not take into account synergy with other dopamine enhancing agents and persons using anti-depressants should consult with their physician beforehand. Deprenyl tablets are typically provided in 5mg form (Jumex®); some persons like to take ½ to 1 of these tablets 3-times a week; however the use of the deprenyl liquid (Dep-Pro™) is particularly attractive for those using deprenyl to generally support, protect and improve neurological function, since 1 drop = 1mg. Therefore the liquid can be dosed very precisely by simply placing those drops into a cold drink. Avoid use in the late evening to prevent any sleep disruption.

SPOTLIGHT: SMART DRUGS AND NUTRIENTS PIR ACE TAM, THE ORIG INAL NOOTROPIC Smart drugs and nutrients, or to give them their correct medical terminologynootropics, are agents that can not only improve conditions of senile dementias, but in recent times have become popular for older individuals to improve their mental and cognitive processes. It was Ward Dean, M.D. who highlighted these facts through his very popular ‘Smart Drug’ series of books in the 1980s, since then the term ‘smart drugs’ has become mainstream.
Piracetam, the original nootropic The smart-drug we focus on here was in fact the first, developed as it was by Dr. Giurgea for UCB laboratories in Belgium in the 1960s. Originally it was designed to assist with travel and altitude sickness, but shortly afterward individuals realised that piracetam had positive cognitive enhancement effects.
What can piracetam do for me? Piracetam is a cognition agent that has been used successfully to treat a
wide range of conditions, for example it has been shown to increase a person’s attention levels and improve memory and intelligence. Piracetam can help to slow down ‘senile involution’, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. In tests and trials, piracetam induces significant improvement to memory consolidation and recall in those suffering from ‘age-associated memory impairment’. Piracetam has also been used to improve patient’s recovery from strokes, particularly improving post stroke speech impairment (aphasia). Another use has been in cases of acute and chronic cerebral ischaemia, (decreased blood flow to the brain). Using piracetam has restored speech and the use of limbs in these patients; it has also increased neuronal activity in the brain when measured with EEG.
For regular individuals, piracetam has been shown to enhance idea creation and the ability to ‘see things through,’ in other words to have ideas and bring them to fruition. The level of clarity piracetam creates is often described/ perceived as; “the fog has lifted.”
How does piracetam work? Piracetam’s key and unique method of action is upon the Corpus Callosum, the region of the brain that links the two hemispheres. It is this that most experts believe is the key that gives piracetam users the ability to channel greater brain potential by connecting the logical side of the brain with the creative side more effectively, Yin and Yang if you will.
“Piracetam can help to slow down ‘senile involution’, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.”
What are the doses of piracetam? A common dose is 800mg tablets three times a day, then lowering to 800 mg twice a day after the first month. Note: The effects of piracetam can be enhanced if taken concurrently with centrophenoxine or Hydergine®. Side effects are minimal and seldom experienced, but should you experience nausea or headache then it is usually caused by an overdose, so in which case reduce the dose and build up more slowly, (if it is necessary). Note: There are many articles and videos on the IAS website about smart drugs and nutrients.

SPOTLIGHT: STEM CELL WORX
®
ENHANCING AND IMPROVING STEM - CELL AC TIVIT Y Stem Cell Worx® is an intraoral spray that contains a very high-grade bovine colostrum, (with over 30% of the antibody IgG and over 54% protein) along with a 98% pure trans-resveratrol and 95% fucoidan (a seaweed extract). should not be confused with embryonic stem cells that come from an embryo. The Stem Cell Worx® supplement is designed specifically to enhance one’s own adult stem cells naturally. Stem Cell Worx® is an intraoral spray providing an absorption rate of up to 95% of its nutrients. This is important because in order for adult stem cells to be stimulated, it is the blood that is the principal carrier of nutrients and oxygen to our cells. In order to enhance cell activation you need three key factors, which are: • Growth factors • Immune factors and • Cytokines Stem Cell Worx® has all three of these factors in abundance and it is scientifically proven they are most effective when administered by intraoral spray delivery. Time takes its toll on adult stem cells. At 65 years of age, the release rate of adult stem cells entering the bloodstream has dropped

This natural health supplement is designed to activate the body’s own adult stem-cells in order to provide a robust immunity. With 50 to 70 trillion cells in the body, cellular health is clearly crucial to overall well-being and good health. Hence, adult stem cells working at optimal levels provide the platform for many cumulative health benefits. Unfortunately, as we age, our own adult stem cells decline rapidly, along with their release rates from the bone marrow, and our immune system weakens. Whilst stem cell clinics are at the forefront of antiaging medicine today, the process of full adult stem cell therapy is very expensive and has many regulatory restrictions. Adult stem cells are the master cells of the body that have the ability to maintain, selfrenew and repair cells, tissue and muscle throughout an entire life-time. These cells are referred to as autologous, haematopoietic (blood), mesenchymal or stromal stem cells. Adult stem cells

IAS choose Stem Cell Worx® over other purported stem-cell activators on the basis of evidence. Figure 2 demonstrates the benefits of supplementing daily with Stem Cell Worx.
Dosing Six sprays into the mouth provide 36mgs of formulation. This can be performed once or twice daily as required. Spray under the tongue, hold for 10 seconds, then swallow the remainder. It’s best taken on an empty stomach, at least 30-minutes before or after eating any food.
SPOTLIGHT: THYROID SUPPORT FOR THE HYPOTHYROID EPIDEMIC Dr. Broda Barnes in the 1970s estimated that 40% of the adult population was deficient in thyroid hormones; he published this statement in his excellent book‘hypothyroidism, the unsuspected epidemic.’ Since then, pupils of Dr. Barnes, such as Dr. Richard Wilkinson, have suggested that this figure could be even greater now! This is important because the thyroid gland is of pivotal importance to our overall health, but like the majority of hormones as we age the production of thyroid hormones decline. This lack of thyroid function is the root cause of a wide variety of agerelated health disorders. Ergo, supplementation with a synthetic or a natural thyroid can have a significant positive effect on a wide range of agerelated problems.
The importance of the thyroid gland The hormones produced by the thyroid control the body’s metabolism- the rate at which it burns calories for energy. It also controls the body’s utilization of fat, so a decline in the secretion of hormones from the thyroid gland, (known as hypothyroidism) can result in wide range of symptoms such as poor concentration, confusion, memory problems, cold hands and feet and weight gain. Another serious condition which can be caused by and result from an underactive thyroid are painful musculoskeletal issues that affect tendons, muscles and ligaments.
How can I be sure if I need a thyroid supplement? Above: The position of the thyroid gland
Apart from recognising the types of effects listed above, your doctor can of course get your blood
levels of thyroid checked, but another, simpler method is to take your body temperature when you wake in the morning. It should be in the range of 97.8 to 98.2 degrees Fahrenheit, if it is regularly lower you could be hypothyroid and if higher then hyper-thyroid.
Choosing between synthetic and natural thyroid supplements IAS stocks a comprehensive range of both synthetic and natural thyroids, although we advocate the use of a natural supplement over a synthetic, this is because products such as Armour® are of a porcine origin, so they naturally contain the full spectrum of T1, T2, T3 and T4 thyroid hormones, (note the bottles only list the amounts of T3 and T4 because very few physicians are familiar with T1 and T2).
Conversion between synthetic and natural thyroid products The table provided is a helpful guide to what the suggested conversion rates are for those wishing to make the switch between synthetic thyroids and natural versions. As always we recommend consulting with a physician before making changes to your program.
Thyroid doses Natural desiccated thyroids are measured in grains; with one grain being equivalent to approximately 60 mg. IAS carries doses from ¼ grain to 2 grains, with brands including Armour®, ERFA® and Nature®. IAS also provides synthetic T3 in 20 mcg and T4 in 100 mcg tablets.
Thyroid supplements provide potent antiaging protection Many aging individuals can benefit from taking a thyroid supplement because this remarkable hormone has such a profound affect across so many different conditions. Many antiaging physicians consider thyroid support an essential part of any serious attempt to improve a person’s health-span and longevity.

SPOTLIGHT: YOUTH GEMS
®
THE PEP TIDE B IOR EG U L ATOR S FOR S KIN Four peptide bioregulators have now been combined into topical skin preparations so that their unique gene-switching performance can be bought to the field of aesthetic medicine. What does each peptide provide for? The beauty product line Youth Gems® contains the following four peptides and a ginseng extract called Neovitin®. They represent the very latest developed program of complex skin care designed for the face, neck, hands and the body. The line includes four unique active ingredients of shortchain peptides that have a directed tissue-specific action to improve all basic skin structures: • Thymus peptide: This stimulates tissue regeneration and the synthesis of tissue-specific proteins. Thus, cells proliferative and metabolic activity is enhancedaccelerating the renewal of various cell tissues. It also has an anti-inflammatory action, improving the healing time of wounds, as well as antioxidant, immune stimulating and anti-stress actions. • Pineal peptide: This regulates metabolic processes and increases protein synthesis in skin cells. It also possesses potent antioxidant activity, normalizes the lipid peroxidation processes in skin cells that in turn
40
promotes the elimination of negative influences on the skin from external factors. • Cartilaginous peptide. This stimulates regeneration of fibroblasts and keratinocytes and interferes with the destructive changes in collagen skin structure; it also strengthens collagen structure of elastic skin fibers and increases elasticity. • Blood vessel peptide: This regulates metabolic processes in the vascular wall, normalizes vascular tone and restores disturbed skin microcirculation. It strengthens and regulates the permeability of the vascular walls of skin vessels and improves skin turgor.
What else is included in Youth Gems® in addition to the four peptides? In addition to the four peptides, the Youth Gems® also contain an incredible array of beneficial natural agents- which just by themselves would make other antiaging creams jealous! The range includes: Neovitin® (a complex isolated from ginseng), olive oil, raisin-seed oil, Argon oil, Soya oil, Jojoba oil, Bisabolol (extract from chamomile), Peony extract,
sodium hyaluronate (a derivative of hyaluronic acid), green tea extract, cocoa oil, carrageenan (from seaweed), winter bloom, almond extract and vitamin E.
What results have been seen? Clinical trials and examinations have been conducted at the St. Petersburg Biogerontology Institute and they have concluded that these short chain peptides, when applied to skin cells, have many beneficial activities, shown below are some of those results. These include improved metabolism in vascular wall cells, the growth of new skin cells, enhanced antioxidant activity; increased blood flow circulation and greater moisturization. The skin’s appearance becomes smoother, with fewer wrinkles and with more elasticity, all of which helps to lift the face contours producing a more radiant, youthful appearance. These beneficial effects were noted in 100% of women who took part in the voluntary clinica trial. Right: A 68 year old female before (top) and after (below) application of Youth Gems®
