Adrafinil is a unique stimulant that stimulates only when stimulation is required, which means it doesn’t affect normal sleep patterns.

WELCOME Let’s be honest, vision is perhaps our most important sense; well, at least the one most of us would not want to lose, (if we had a choice!). The good news is that there are lots of interesting approaches going on. Internationally, there have been numerous published papers, both scientific and medical, they support that significant improvements can be made to conditions involving cataracts, macular degeneration and even retinal pigmentosa. Our lead article points out these details with references, so please make sure you check it out.

FOREFRONT This month’s news

Dr. Marios Kyriazis also contributes one of his technical features on the aspects of aging; this one regards apoptosis, or programmed cell death. It’s an important part of the cell life cycle and if it goes awry many damaging processes can occur, including cancer.

Plus, there is also an exciting feature on how your own stem cell activity can be improved. Stem cell replacement therapy is perhaps at the forefront of antiaging therapy, but its use can be complex, expensive and even controversial, so here is an approach that can make the most of what you’ve got.

FOREFRONT THE THINGS YOU NEED TO K NOW FROM THI S MONTH’ S NE WS

Scientists find a link between diabetes and Alzheimer’s Neurology researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, have demonstrated that raised glucose levels in the blood increase the production of amyloid beta, the proteins that make up the characteristic brain plaques in Alzheimer’s Disease.

This research adds further evidence to the growing body of work that there is a connection between the causes of diabetes and the development of amyloid beta brain plaques that trigger the complex changes to the brain which result in Alzheimer’s Disease.

To learn how elevated blood sugar might cause these plaques

to form, the team injected mice specially bred to have an Alzheimer’s like condition with diazoxide, a glucose-elevating drug commonly used to treat low blood sugar.

In young healthy mice with no amyloid plaques, doubling glucose levels in the blood increased amyloid beta levels in the brain by 20 percent. When the scientists repeated the experiment in older mice that already had

developed brain plaques, amyloid beta levels rose by 40 percent.

Taking the research further the team then identified a mechanism that directly linked glucose levels, the activity of neurons and amyloid beta levels – KATP channels.

These channels on the exterior of brain cells close when glucose levels raise, this actions makes the cells more likely to fire.

Excessive firing in certain areas of the brain can increase amyloid

“...it is interesting that we see a link between... the brain and amyloid beta production.”

beta production, which eventually can lead to more amyloid plaques and the development of Alzheimer’s disease.

“Given that KATP channels are the way by which the pancreas secretes insulin in response to high blood sugar levels, it is interesting that we see a link between the activity of these channels in the brain and amyloid beta production,” said Shannon Macauley, PhD, the lead author and a postdoctoral research scholar.

FOREFRONT Daily omega-3 supplementation and arterial stiffness marker pulse wave velocity (PWV) Pulse wave velocity (PWV) measures the speed which your blood travels around your arteries and is a key indicator of arterial stiffness. As we age our arteries harden

and this increases our risk of developing cardiovascular diseases.

New research by Kevin D. Monahan, from Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine, USA studied the effects of omega-3 supplementation on a

group of healthy men and women, aged between 60 and 80 years. Each of the participants took 2 omega-3 capsules twice a day for 12 weeks and their pulse wave velocity was assessed for signs of improvement. The study authors reported that: “these data indicate that 12

weeks of daily [omega]-3 supplementation decreases an important measure of central arterial stiffness (carotid‐femoral PWV) in older… healthy adults.”

As many of you will know IAS are proud stockists of the world’s first at home arterial stiffness monitor the Bio Cuff.

Telomere shortening pattern predicts cancer?

Researchers from Northwestern University, Illinois, USA have discovered what they believe to be a telltale pattern for the development of cancer.

Over a 13-year period the team took multiple telomere measurements

from 792 people, they discovered that subjects who experienced rapid telomere shortening, followed by a stabilization period of 3-4 years were eventually diagnosed with different types of cancer, including prostate, skin, lung, and leukaemia

amongst others.

Telomeres are the end caps of chromosomes which we liken to aglets on shoe laces, they protect the DNA from deterioration during cell division.

The researchers reported that telomere length in persons who went on

to develop cancer were as much as 15 years chronologically older than those who did not develop the disease. The lead investigator concluded that: “this pattern of telomere growth may mean it can be a predictive biomarker for cancer.”

“Vision may be the most precious of all 5 senses...”

Vision may be the most precious of our five senses. Yet most of us may take it for granted...until it begins to deteriorate with age. As we get older we likely need greater amounts of light to perceive details clearly, and reading glasses to discern fine print which would otherwise be fuzzy. Night driving becomes difficult due to sensitivity from bright lights and glare, and it’s challenging to visually adapt to the darkness. These are common examples of “normal” ocular aging in otherwise disease-free eyes that will not severely impact quality of life in the senior years. But the problem is, with advancing years also comes a higher risk of developing age-related diseases, including eye disorders such as macular degeneration, cataract, and glaucoma, which could lead to vision loss and potentially blindness − a devastating consequence.

The good news is, like many other degenerative aging processes, there is something (actually, many things) we can do about it. Let’s examine how to ensure lifelong healthy vision, or at least stop the progression of, and even reverse existing disorders.

ucts (AGE’s), further aggravating oxidative stress, leading to tissue damage and dysfunction throughout the body and a variety of age-related diseases. Elevated blood glucose in diabetics, or even prolonged exposure to normal levels of glucose over time in aging non-diabetics, sows the seeds for the consequences of increased rates of glycation throughout the body.

Structures within the eye have a high metabolic rate and are particularly susceptible to glycation and oxidation, processes which underlie the development of cataracts, macular degeneration, and glaucoma, among others.

Although in this article we’ll mainly focus on strategies to combat the generation of ROS and AGE’s, other mechanisms, such as inflammation, vascularization (the abnormal formation of blood vessels), and mitochondrial dysfunction can further complicate and worsen eye damage, leading to vision loss.

OXIDATION AND GLYCATION: DOUBLE THREAT TO AGING EYES

So we now know that oxidative stress and glycation are implicated in the development and progression of age-related eye diseases. Cataracts are formed when oxidation of lipids and cross-linking of proteins in the lens of the eye cause the normally transparent lens to become opaque or cloudy, impairing vision. Cataracts left untreated are a major cause of blindness worldwide. Another serious disease associated with oxidative damage that leads to vision loss is age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which is characterized by damage to the macula, a pigmented yellow spot near the retina that is responsible for central vision. There are two forms of the disease, wet (in which newly formed blood vessels leak blood or fluid) and dry (in which cells atrophy or die). AMD impairs the ability to read, drive, and perform other activities that require fine, sharp, forward-directed vision. In glaucoma, another disease linked with oxidative stress, peripheral vision is hindered due to damage to the optic nerve from an increase in eye pressure.

Two deleterious processes exacerbated by aging that affect the body as a whole, including the eyes, are oxidation and glycation. Oxidative stress occurs when the over-activity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as free radicals, by-products of normal cellular metabolism, exceeds the body’s capacity to neutralize them. As their name implies, ROS are highly reactive, and can damage proteins, lipids, and DNA, and destroy cells and tissues if not kept in check by the body’s production of endogenous antioxidants (i.e., SOD, catalase, glutathione). Disease and aging can alter the oxidant/antioxidant balance, resulting in an excess of ROS that overwhelm the body’s waning antioxidant defenses. This damaging process is often compounded by another mechanism known as glycation, in which glucose or other molecules form irregular bonds with proteins, modifying their structure and function.

Glycated proteins can then go on to chemically combine with other proteins in a process called “cross-linking.”

Glycation and cross-linking result in the formation of toxic products, including advanced glycation endprod-

STRATEGIES TO MAINTAIN EYE HEALTH OR IMPROVE EXISTING CONDITIONS It’s clear that in order to protect our vision, and our health in general, the goal is to reduce the impact of oxidation and glycation. Thankfully, we can take steps, including lifestyle changes, targeted nutritional supplements, and drug therapies when needed, to prevent, slow, or even reverse age-related eye diseases.

• Antioxidant Vitamin/Mineral/ Carotenoid Support A good foundation of antioxidant support to neutralize oxidative damage, provided through the diet and supplements, is vital to the health of the body and eyes. A diet of fresh fruits and vegetables, legumes, lean meats, dairy, fish, and nuts supplies a range of antioxidant vitamins and minerals. (We’ll see more on optimizing diet later.)

For further antioxidant support, a comprehensive multi-vitamin/mineral supplement and carotenoid formula is recommended; antioxidant vitamins A, C, E and minerals such as zinc have all been shown, individually and combined, to block oxidative damage and protect vision, as have carotenoids (phytochemical antioxidants found in dark green or yellow fruits and vegetables), including β-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin.

Let’s look at one of these antioxidants, vitamin C, for example. Several studies have shown that greater intake and higher blood levels of vitamin C, which is found in high concentrations in healthy eye tissues, are linked with lower rates of cataracts, (1) and deficiencies have been reported in glaucoma and AMD patients. (2) Other studies have shown that combined nutrients act synergistically. A large-scale long-term placebo-controlled trial known as the Age-Related Eye Disease Study, sponsored by the National Eye Institute, evaluated the effects of an antioxidant mix on disease progression in 3640 participants with AMD, aged 55-80 years. Researchers found a statistically significant reduction in the risk of developing advanced macular degeneration in patients receiving a combination of vitamin C (500 mg), vitamin E (400 IU), beta carotene (15 mg), zinc (80 mg), and copper (2 mg), compared with placebo. (3)

• B- Complex Vitamins B vitamins are important to vision as well as cardiovascular health; they prevent high levels of homocysteine, a toxic amino acid metabolite that contributes to increased risk of heart disease and AMD. A seven year-long, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial at Harvard Medical School on 5442 female health professionals over 40 years old with preexisting cardiovascular disease, or at risk for the disease, examined the effect of B-vitamin therapy on lowering homocysteine and reducing the incidence of AMD. Researchers found that a daily combination of folic acid (2.5 mg), B6 (50 mg), and B12 (1 mg) reduced the risk of developing AMD by 33%. (4)

• Omega-3 Fatty Acids Omega-3 fatty acids are long-chain essential fatty acids (EFA’s), derived from marine and vegetable sources.

EFA’s are classified as “essential” because they cannot be synthesized in the body and must be obtained from the diet or supplements. Important omega-3’s are the parent compound, alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), and its metabolites, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which are derived from cold water oily fish such as salmon, sardines and albacore tuna. Omega-3’s have been shown over the past few decades to be crucial to various aspects of health, including vision; they protect against oxidative stress, inflammation, and vascularization. Several studies have shown that higher intake is associated with lower risk of AMD. In another large-scale study by Harvard researchers on over 38,000 women (average age of 55) who completed a food-frequency questionnaire, regular consumption of DHA, EPA, and fish was associated with a significantly decreased risk of AMD. (5). Omega-3’s may also lower the risk of progression of macular degeneration to late stage, (6) and protect against cataract formation or progression. (7)

• Acetyl-l-carnitine (ALC) ALC is the acetylated ester of the amino acid derivative l-carnitine. Like l-carnitine, ALC shuttles long-chain fatty acids across the inner mitochondrial membrane to produce energy in the form of ATP. Besides its role in enhancing mitochondrial energy metabolism, which

“Melatonin may combat aged macular degeneration by stimulation of telomerase activity.” is altered in age-related diseases, ALC has demonstrated powerful antioxidant and anti-glycation properties, and so is a useful agent in preventing or treating ocular diseases. ALC guards against cataract development by preventing depletion of endogenous antioxidant enzymes and inhibiting lipid peroxidation within the lens, (8) and reduces glycation of lens proteins known as crystallins.

(9) And in patients with AMD, ALC was shown to improve visual function. (10)

• Coenzyme-Q10 (CoQ10) Like ALC, CoQ10 is a necessary cofactor in mitochondrial energy production and a potent free radical scavenger, blocking oxidative damage of DNA, lipids, and proteins.

Its production wanes progressively with age, which increases the risk of degenerative diseases and accelerated aging. One study found a significant decline in CoQ10 concentrations in the retinas of donors over 80 years old compared to donors under 30. Researchers believe that the decrease in both antioxidant capacity and ATP synthesis in the retina resulting from a CoQ10 deficiency may be linked to the progression of macular degeneration. (11)

• Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) PQQ is another mitochondrial energizer and potent antioxidant that may have potential in supporting eye health.

• Combination nutrients: ALC, Omega-3’s, and CoQ10 In another placebo-controlled clinical trial on the efficacy of synergistic nutrients in improving vision, the combination of ALC, omega-3 fatty acids, and CoQ10 was administered to 106 patients with early AMD. After 12 months, patients receiving this “cocktail” showed significant improvement in four parameters of visual functions, with only 2% of cases worsening, compared to 17% of cases worsening in placebo group; in other words, in the majority of treated patients, the disease did not progress to late stage, but instead, partially reversed! Researchers concluded that an appropriate combination of nutrients which enhance mitochondrial metabolism may improve and stabilize vision in patients with early AMD. (12)

• Can-C Eye Drops Can-C eye drops is a major innovation in cataract treatment and prevention, and vision health in general. The drops contain the substance n-acetylcarnosine (NAC), a naturally occurring precursor to carnosine, a potent inhibitor of glycation and oxidative processes. (Note: carnosine is not to be confused with l-carnitine; they are two distinct substances.) The acetyl group on the precursor NAC molecule allows it to penetrate the cornea and enter the aqueous environment of the eye, where it is then de-acetylated into carnosine. Once in the eye, carnosine accumulates in the lens, where it combats free radical activity while preventing the cross-linking of lens proteins, both of which, as we’ve seen, are implicated in cataract development.

Several clinical studies on cataract patients using the drops have demonstrated its efficacy and value as a non-invasive alternative to cataract surgery, which involves the removal and replacement of the lens. In a placebo-controlled study on 49 patients with cataracts (average age of 65), 90% of those receiving Can-C (NAC 1%) eye drops twice daily for 6 months showed improvement in visual acuity and 89% showed improvement in glare sensitivity. (Note: visual acuity is a measure of clarity or sharpness of vision, determined by the ability to read the Snellen chart, the chart in the eye doctor’s office with letters that progressively decrease in size; for example, a result of 20/20 is considered “normal” vision.)

After 24 months, the treated group exhibited no further cataract development, in contrast to the control group in which vision deteriorated. Tolerability of the drops was good, with no reported adverse events. (13) In another placebo-controlled study on 137 older adult automobile drivers, 4 months of eye drop use improved visual acuity and glare sensitivity in those with cataracts, also with good tolerability. (14) This study has important implications for improving both vision and driving safety in older adults.

According to Russian scientist Dr. Mark Babizhayev, the developer of the drops, Can-C eye drops “help the aging eye to recover by improving clarity, glare sensitivity, color perception, and overall vision,” (15) and

“Vinpocetine is a vasodilator that improves the blood flow which is beneficial in treating eye disorders’. show promise in the treatment of a range of ophthalmic disorders including cataracts, glaucoma, dry eye, vitreous floaters, and complications associated with diabetes. (16) (Note: Carnosine may also be taken as an oral supplement to inhibit glycation and oxidative reactions throughout the body; Can-C eye drops produce targeted tissue-specific effects.)

• Can-C Plus Can-C Plus is an add-on product to be used in conjunction with Can-C eye drops in more advanced stages of cataract development. The oral tablets contain N-acetylcysteine (another powerful antioxidant and enhancer of endogenous glutathione production), carnosine (in an oral form rather than drops), vitamin E, zinc, and other ingredients.

• Resveratrol Resveratrol, an antioxidant phytochemical found in grapes and other sources, has gained popularity over the past few years for its widespread beneficial effects on health and longevity. It has been shown to protect various organs against aging by activating SIRT1, one of the sirtuins (SIRT’s), a family of enzymes with key roles in metabolic homeostasis and life span regulation. Upregulation of SIRT1 in animals has been shown to protect against several eye diseases related to oxidative stress, including cataract, retinal degeneration, and glaucoma.

(17) Specifically, resveratrol counters free radical activity in lens epithelial cells and suppresses cataract formation, (18-19) protects against oxidation-induced glaucoma, (20) and controls neovascularization processes in AMD. (21) In a small case study on octogenarians with macular degeneration, improvements in retinal structure and visual function were obtained with daily administration of a resveratrol-based supplement. (22)

• Melatonin Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland and within the retina with diverse physiological functions. Besides its role in regulating circadian rhythms such as sleep, the hormone has been shown to prevent premature aging and increase life span, with strong 10

antioxidant and anticarcinogenic actions. The decline in production of melatonin with age is one of the leading mechanisms of aging and age-related diseases.

In the eye, melatonin is synthesized by photoreceptors in the retina, with high levels at night and lower levels during the day; it acts as a scavenger of free radicals generated in ocular tissues. Dozens of studies have demonstrated melatonin’s favorable effects on eye health.

In rats, it was shown to increase antioxidant activity and decrease the incidence of cataracts (23) and retinopathy, (24) a pathology similar to AMD. These results suggest that melatonin may prevent or treat cataracts and AMD in humans. A clinical study did indeed show that 3 mg melatonin, given orally at bedtime to 55 AMD patients for 6 months, stabilized visual acuity, protected the retina, and delayed further macular degeneration, and without side effects. (25) Besides cataracts and AMD, melatonin also shows promise in the treatment and prevention of glaucoma. (26-27) In addition to scavenging reactive oxygens within eye tissues, melatonin may combat macular degeneration by another mechanism: stimulation of telomerase activity in the retinal pigment epithelium, a pigmented layer of the retina. (28) Telomerase is the enzyme that enables chromosomes to maintain their length and structural integrity at their ends (called telomeres) when cells divide.

Telomere shortening due to inactivity of telomerase leads to cellular senescence, aging, and degenerative diseases, and the identification of agents like melatonin that activate this enzyme is a key area of ongoing research into Above: Here are some before and after Fundus photos the mechanisms involved in showing the benefit of the genetic control of aging.

• More on Reducing Glycation So far, we’ve discussed a variety of vision-supporting nutrients and supplements, many of them antioxidants, though we’ve covered two that protect against both oxidation and glycation. Now, let’s focus specifically on combatting glycation. As with antioxidant support to neutralize free radicals, we must also establish a strong physiological foundation that limits the formation of destructive AGE’s. This can be accomplished by maintaining blood glucose levels within the normal range for non-diabetics and within an acceptable range for diabetics receiving treatment (there’s controversy over what the “normal” range is, but let’s say a fasting blood glucose level less than 100 mg/dL, and optimally less than 85 mg/dL). Hemoglobin A1C, a blood test that measures levels of glycation in the body, specifically glycated hemoglobin, should also be monitored. In diabetes, elevated glucose in the blood speeds up the formation of AGE’s (since excess glucose is available to form higher levels of glycated proteins), leading to diabetic complications throughout the body, including the eyes. In fact, diabetes is a form of accelerated aging because this destructive process happens faster than it ordinarily would; but even in those with normal blood sugar, the rate of glycation increases with age due to prolonged glucose exposure over many years. A nutritional strategy to control blood sugar that should be followed by diabetics and non-diabetics alike is a low glycemic index diet that replaces simple carbohydrates such as super-sized sugary drinks, white bread, and sweets, with complex carbohydrates from whole grains, fruits and vegetables. This low-glycemic diet coupled with the antioxidant-rich diet discussed earlier is a solid preventive nutritional base. In addition, avoid food preparation that triggers the production of dietary AGE’s (yes, they are even formed during cooking, and then ingested, further adding to the body’s toxic burden!). Frying and grilling foods at high temperatures should be replaced by lower temperature methods that also involve liquid, such as boiling, poaching, or stewing, which produce significantly fewer glycotoxins. Following these measures, coupled with the use of appropriate nutrients, supplements, and drugs when necessary, will help protect against glycation-induced damage.

In addition to ALC and carnosine (oral and eye drops), two other glycation inhibitors, both vitamin derivatives, are benfotiamine and pyridoxamine. The anti-diabetes drugs metformin and acarbose (used to lower blood glucose), and aminoguanidine (used to treat diabetic kidney disease), have all been shown to inhibit the formation of

AGE’s at various points in their production. By reducing glycation throughout the body, every organ will benefit, including the eyes.

• Novel Agents Up to now, the nutrients, supplements, and drugs we’ve reviewed promote eye health by combatting pathological aging processes, including oxidative stress, glycation, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Now, let’s look at agents that support vision by unique mechanisms.

Vinpocetine, a derivative of the periwinkle plant, is a nootropic and vasodilator that improves blood flow in the brain. Since blood vessels of the eye are in direct connection with the cerebral circulation, vinpocetine also increases microcirculation in the eye, which is beneficial in treating various eye disorders. In a placebo-controlled trial on 40 patients with AMD, aged 40 to 65, those who received 10 mg vinpocetine for 2 months, in addition to conventional therapy, demonstrated better visual acuity, improved retinal function, and increased ocular blood flow. (29) Another nootropic, picamilon, also increases circulation in the brain. The structure of picamilon consists of the vitamin niacin bonded to the neurotransmitter GABA. The molecule can cross the blood-brain barrier into the brain where is broken down into its components GABA, an anxiolytic, and niacin, a vasodilator. And again, since the circulation of the brain is in close proximity to that of the eyes, the vasodilation action has a positive effect on vision. In Russia, picamilon is used to increase cerebral blood flow and treat glaucoma, among other applications.

The last novel agent we’ll discuss is the peptide bioregulator visoluten. A major innovation in anti-aging therapies over the past few decades was the development of peptide bioregulators − short chains of amino acids (peptides) isolated from various animal tissues and organs. When

administered to other animals or humans, these peptides act at the genetic level to regenerate age-damaged tissues and restore the function of a particular organ. For example, retinal peptides initiate the formation of retinal and pigment cells in patients with retinal degeneration, thymic peptides stimulate immunity, and pineal peptides induce the aging pineal gland to manufacture melatonin.

The mechanism behind these rejuvenating effects is complex: each short-chain peptide interacts with a gene’s DNA, transferring information encoded in its amino acid sequence and stimulating a process called protein synthesis, the manufacture of proteins according to the encoded genetic information. By “switching” on genes to synthesize specific proteins, peptide bioregulators can recover functions of tissues and organs undergoing age-related deterioration. IAS carries a full range of 21 of these bioregulators (for organs ranging from adrenals to thyroid), including visoluten (eye tissue peptides), which has a regenerative effect on the eyes.

PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER: HOW TO DESIGN YOUR PROGRAM FOR VISION HEALTH This plethora of nutrients and drugs to support eye health and treat existing conditions may seem mind-boggling, and you may wonder where to start, and how to formulate your healthy vision plan. We stressed a few times that the health of the body impacts the health of the eyes, so minimizing the generation of destructive free radicals and AGE’s system-wide is essential, with an antioxidant/low glycemic index diet along with additional antioxidant support from a comprehensive daily multivitamin and one or more nutrients to combat glycation, like carnosine or benfotiamine. Because ALC inhibits both oxidative and glycation-induced damage and enhances mitochondrial function, it would be a wise addition to a general strategy. So would melatonin which has so many favorable effects, from antioxidant support to promoting eye health and longevity, that it should be considered (and used!) by everyone. The synergistic use of these suggested supplements would form the foundation of your program. (Of course you can substitute, or add any of the others, such as omega-3’s, CoQ10, and resveratrol, all of which will benefit your eyes and body.)

Onto this foundation you can add products for specific eye conditions. For those with cataracts, Can-C eye drops should definitely be included in your regimen; those with

glaucoma and other eye conditions will benefit as well.

We discussed many agents helpful for AMD, like the ALC/Omega-3/CoQ10 cocktail which can be added to your program. Those who seek to boost their brainpower as well as their eyesight can try vinpocetine and picamilon. And at the top tier of innovative vision products is visoluten. Fortunately, all of the supplements and drugs we reviewed are available from IAS. As far as lifestyle factors, keep in mind the importance of keeping blood sugar within the normal range. If you have diabetes, talk with your doctor about the use of metformin acarbose, or aminoguanidine; these drugs may also be used by non-diabetics to reduce the negative impact of glycation, but medical supervision is suggested. In addition, limit your exposure to UV light, and when you do go out in the sun, protect your eyes with high quality sunglasses. Don’t smoke, and be sure to exercise regularly and schedule routine vision exams.

A combined strategy of nutritional supplements, antioxidant/low-glycemic index diet, lifestyle modifications, and drugs when necessary, will help you maintain (and possibly improve) your eyesight and support your overall health, while combatting several degenerative aging processes.

YOUR BODY’S REGENERATIVE POWER WITH...

BY LESLIE J. FARER

Of the hundreds of different cell types in the body, adult stem cells possess enormous potential. These undeveloped cells have the ability, when needed, to proliferate and generate a variety of specialized cell types, with the overall function of continuously maintaining and repairing the body’s tissues and organs. Without them, processes such as the normal repair of muscle wear and tear, healing of skin and wounds, repair and regeneration of bone, cartilage and scar tissue.

Good health depends on effective activation and function of adult stem cells to support the body’s endogenous repair mechanisms. Unfortunately, the efficiency of these pathways typically declines with age, leading to a range of degenerative diseases. But age-related deterioration does not have to be inevitable − research now shows that certain natural ingredients can optimize stem cell activity to support good health throughout our lifetime. Stem Cell Worx® Intraoral Spray is a unique and innovative nutritional supplement, a synergistic combination of three provAs a result of their broad capacity for tissue renewal, en stem cell-enhancing ingredients delivered in a stem cells lie at the foundation of an emerging field highly absorbable oral spray. known as regenerative medicine, with the ability to replace damaged or diseased organs with healthy cells Let’s see how we can boost our regenerative capacity, that are activated and proliferated from a patient’s naturally. own cells that already reside in the body.

What are stem cells?

Stem cells are unspecialized ‘primary’ cells from which all other cell types in the body descend. They have three important features: (1) as mentioned, they are undifferentiated (i.e., unspecialized); (2) under the right conditions and with certain enablers they are capable of activating and dividing for long periods; and (3) they develop, or differentiate, into specialized cell types such as muscle, blood, or nerve cells.

Two broad classifications of stem cells are embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells. There is often controversy attached to embryonic stem cells as they are derived from an embryo. Whereas adult stem cells (also called somatic stem cells), are located in tissues, muscles and organs throughout the body and present in grown-ups and newborns alike. Note that adult stem cells are distinct from embryonic stem cells and not associated with any of the ethical, moral, or political issues surrounding embryonic stem cells.

Adult stem cells - the body’s endogenous repair system Adult stem cells are located in specific areas of tissues and organs called stem cell niches. They multiply by cell division to replenish damaged, deteriorated, or dead cells and regenerate tissues − their primary biological role. Ongoing tissue and organ repair is a critical function and relies on effective activation and differentiation of stem cells within these specialized niches, in particular the bone marrow.

Besides the bone marrow, adult stem cells have been studied and identified in a variety of organs and tissues including peripheral blood, cord blood, brain, liver, muscle, heart, gut, and skin. Depending on their source and the particular cells into which they develop, adult stem cells are further classified into types, including mesenchymal, hematopoietic, CD3+, stromal, etc.

The versatility of adult stem cells

cell types of the particular tissue or organ in which they reside, without the universality, or pluripotency of embryonic stem cells, which can develop into any cell type in the body. For example, a hematopoietic (blood forming) stem cell found in bone marrow was typically thought to form one of the many types of blood and immune cells, but not to develop into a brain or muscle cell. But research over the past few years has challenged this belief and shown that, although they are not by definition pluripotent, certain adult stem cells found in particular tissues can differentiate into cell types found in other organs or tissues in a process called transdifferentiation. This means that an adult stem cell found in one tissue has the ability to migrate to a completely different tissue, transdifferentiate, proliferate, and repair damage there − an intriguing finding with important implications for treating degenerative diseases and impeding aging.

Adult stem cells have widespread applications in medicine Given their capability to generate new tissue, adult hematopoietic stem cells have routinely been used in stem cell transplants (sometimes called bone marrow transplants) after high doses of chemotherapy and/or radiation are used to treat blood cancers such as leukemia and lymphoma wipe out a patient’s own bone marrow. The transplanted stem cells (delivered by infusion) reconstruct healthy bone marrow that can manufacture the array of blood cells needed by the body.

Some other current applications for adult stem cells, using a patient’s own cells in many cases, include regeneration of heart tissue following heart attack damage and chronic heart failure, treating autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases, and healing burns and tissue damage.

Potential applications for adult stem cells are virtually limitless, and include repairing spinal cord injuries, generating insulin-producing cells for type 1 diabetes, reconstructing bone, and repairing cartilage.

Until recently, adult stem cells were generally believed to differentiate only into So we can see that the power and scope

of adult stem cells in rebuilding diseased and damaged tissues and organs is enormous, which has led to the development of methods to collect and cryogenically store (i.e., freeze) a person’s own adult stem cells for future use, if and when needed. Stem cells are ideally harvested while a person is still relatively healthy, before aging and disease have lowered their availability. Then, when necessary, the frozen stem cells can be thawed and infused into a patient’s bloodstream to regenerate a diseased or damaged organ.

Stem Cell Worx® stimulates endogenous stem cell activity So far, we have examined the regenerative capacity of adult stem cells, their crucial role in maintaining tissue and organ structure and function, and their extensive applications in medicine. Even if you haven’t taken steps to bank your stem cells for future use, the good news is you can optimize the production of your own stem cells now with targeted nutritional supplementation. Stem Cell Worx® Intraoral Spray is a patent protected formula containing three natural ingredients that have each been shown in published studies to activate adult stem cells: bovine colostrum, resveratrol, and fucoidan. What’s unique about this product is its combination of high quality stem cell-enhancing and general health-promoting nutrients that act synergistically in a readily absorbable sublingual (under the tongue) spray delivery system. Now, let’s look at each of these ingredients individually.

Stem Cell Worx® Synergistic Ingredients Colostrum This is a nutrient-dense fluid with wide-ranging health benefits. Produced by the mammary glands of mammals before the birth of their newborn, it contains immune supporting substances including antibodies and immunoglobulins, as well as preformed growth factors and cytokines (cell signaling messengers) that directly activate the bone marrow stem cell niche following absorption

(1) Specifically, colostrum induces the production of cytokines GCSF (granulocyte colony stimulating factor) and IL-6 (interleukin-6), which are involved in stem cell release and migration, and growth factor VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor), an “engraftment” factor for stem cells at sites of tissue damage.

of thousands of studies demonstrating its therapeutic benefits, including improving mitochondrial function, reducing oxidative stress, protecting against metabolic disease, and stimulating stem cell activity. Resveratrol was found to enhance hematopoiesis (the formation of blood cells) and stem cell function in mice with bone marrow failure anemia, most likely due to the action of Sirt1, which is important for the function of hematopoietic stem cells. (5) In an animal model of heart damage, rats pre-treated with resveratrol before receiving cardiac stem cell transplants exhibited enhanced cardiac regeneration and improvement in cardiac function due to improved stem cell survival and proliferation. (6) In other experiments, resveratrol induced proliferation and differentiation of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells into osteoblasts (7) and neurons.

to as sublingual in certain context) has several advantages over the typical oral route (i.e., swallowing pills, tablets, liquids, etc.): it bypasses the harsh conditions of the GI tract, allowing for rapid entry into the bloodstream and faster onset of action, with increased absorption and bioavailability. Substances entering the digestive system, on the other hand, are degraded by stomach acid, bile, and enzymes, and then undergo “first pass metabolism” in the liver, where they can be extensively chemically altered, resulting in a minute amount of unmodified drug or nutrient actually entering the circulation, and therefore, negligible therapeutic benefit. Resveratrol, in particular, has extremely low oral bioavailability when taken as a pill or capsule, due to GI degradation and first-pass metabolism. In addition, other substances such as peptides and proteins (present in bovine colostrum) are not stable in the GI tract. Intraoral delivery avoids all of these problems because substances are absorbed directly into the circulation.

Further support of the efficacy of these natural substances was obtained in an independently conducted trial (yet unpublished) on the Stem Cell Worx® formulation itself. Twenty healthy humans using the product for two to four weeks demonstrated an increase in bone marrow stem cell proliferation proportional to dose.

How to Use Stem Cell Worx®

The advantages of intraoral delivery

The recommended dosage of Stem Cell Worx® is 12 sprays per day (generally administered as six sprays in the morning and six sprays in the early evening), which provides 30 mg bovine colostrum, 30 mg resveratrol, and 12 22 mg fucoidan. The instructions are to spray under the tongue, hold for 5 to 10 seconds then swallow, at least 30 minutes away from food. If you are over age 70, start with half this dose and build up to 12 sprays per day over 10 days. Naturally, using this product whilst maintaining a healthy lifestyle that includes adequate exercise and good nutrition will optimize its positive effects. Before using, consult your health care provider if you have a medical condition or take prescription drugs.

Avoid if pregnant or undergoing cancer treatment.

We’ve just examined the stem cell-boosting and regenerative effects of the synergistic nutrients in Stem Cell Worx®. Now, let’s focus on the product’s intraoral (under the tongue) delivery system. Stem Cell Worx® is administered by spraying the formulation directly under the tongue (intraorally). The mucous membrane below the tongue contains a rich network of capillaries through which certain molecules and drugs or nutrients Summary can readily diffuse and directly enter the bloodstream.

Aging and disease have negative consequences on the body’s regenerative mechanisms, but thankfully, research has shown that certain natural ingredients can stimulate adult stem cell activity to counter age-related decline and improve overall health.

Stem Cell Worx® delivers three of these proven ingredients in a highly absorbable formulation – it’s a valuable addition to any effective antiaging regimen.

Apoptotic Modulators in aging

By Marios Kyriazis MD Apoptosis (a Greek word, meaning ‘falling off’) is a crucial event during aging. It is the orderly death of cells which are no longer functional or which are beyond repair. Apoptosis (also called ‘programmed cell death’) was first described in 1972 by Kerr, Wyllie and Currie (1) and it has been attracting substantial research interest since. The reason is that a better understanding of apoptosis will help explain some age-related changes AND suggest directions for cancer treatments.

During apoptosis cells die following a set pattern and are methodically eliminated by the organism. Apoptosis is different from necrosis (when cells die at random). In necrosis, healthy and unhealthy cells may die indiscriminately and the process generates toxic material which kills other cells down the line. Instead, in apoptosis, cells are eliminated in a controlled manner which minimizes the damage to other cells.

It is important to have at least a general idea of the complexity of the process, before a discussion about

modulating it can take place (FIGURE 1).

There are three phases during apoptosis. These are: A. The Induction phase: This is influenced by signals which stimulate pro-apoptotic cascades. Initiating signals may be released by free radical damage, UV radiation and DNA mutations. There are several mechanisms which converge into a single event: the cell’s commitment to die, and this depends on the caspases.

Caspases (Cysteine-dependent aspartate-directed proteases) are proteases which are classified into several sub groups, having a role in different stages of apoptosis.

Caspases must be pre-activated before they become effective. One way of activating the caspases are via Apafs (Apoptotic Protease Activating Factors, which are the results of an earlier DNA damage). Their activation depends on the balance between pro and anti-apoptotic factors. Once activated, the caspases activate other caspases all of which cleave cell proteins leading to apoptosis.

B. The Effector phase: In this second phase, the cell becomes committed to die. This may happen by activation of death receptors which, again, lead to the activation of pro-apoptotic caspases.

C. The Degradation Phase: When the

Cells undergo the following changes during apoptosis: • Membrane blebbing (bulges of the cell membrane).

• Cytoplasmic and nuclear condensation. The cell volume decreases • Fragmentation of the DNA content.

• Formation of apoptotic bodies (sealed membrane vesicles containing left-over material).

• The resulting material is then ingested by other parenchymal cells.

effector phase is over, the degradation phase starts. During this phase, the activated caspases cleave cytoplasmic and nuclear material. The cell is fragmented and phagocytosis starts, particularly by neighbouring macrophages.

Apoptosis in Aging I will mention a few representative examples of apoptosis during age-related degeneration.

Example 1 In Alzheimer’s disease there is an increased activity of amyloid beta proteins, which results in accumulation of aggregates of damaged proteins. This increased amount of amyloid beta stimulates apoptosis, resulting in loss of function due to too many neurons being eliminated. Oestrogens may reduce the rate of apoptosis in the brain. This may be due to the ability of oestrogens to induce the expression of an anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-XL which restricts the activity of amyloid beta

and thus, ultimately, reduces the risk of dementia.

Example 2 Aging causes apoptotic loss of cardiac muscle cells. Cells may also be lost through ischaemic events which cause necrosis. Drugs which have an action on the heart may reduce apoptosis. For example, enalapril was found to reduce cardiomyocyte apoptosis in animals (2). Whilst writing, I will also mention that enalapril was found to be effective in protecting neurons against apoptosis and it may thus be useful in dementia (3).

which may modulate coagulation should also able to balance apoptosis and prevent excessive tissue dysfunction. For example, glucosamine was found to be a mild anticoagulant, ginkgo biloba and vitamin E are well known mild anticoagulants and bromelain (extract of pineapple) is thought to help reduce blood viscosity.

Modulators of Apoptosis It is worth remembering that the regulation of apoptotic mechanisms is finely balanced. Any aberration of this balance may result in patholo-

Example 3 Aging is associated with increased coagulability of the blood. Chronic inflammation reactions are associated with increased blood viscosity and blood clotting, resulting in obstruction of small capillaries and local ischaemia.

gies seen in aging and cancer. Excessive apoptosis causes organ atrophy, whereas slow or inappropriate apoptosis allows damaged cells to accumulate and increases the risk of these turning malignant. Autoimmune diseases are thought to be caused by reduced apoptosis. Immune cells able to react with ‘self’ are not eliminated for some reason, and stay behind causing chronic inflammation and autoimmune reactions such as those resulting in rheumatoid arthritis.

and aspirin are well known modulators (4). These are thought to work by protecting against oxidation, which is the first step in apoptosis modulation.

Some possible anti-apoptotic agents, that may be used in aging are:

3. Idebenone is anti-apoptotic. Idebenone can prevent cytochrome c release, and inhibit MPT. This stands for ‘Mitochondrial Permeability Transition’, which increases during apoptosis. MPT-blockers therefore inhibit apoptosis. Idebenone and coenzyme Q10 are particularly active in the mitochondria.

1. Caspase modulators. Caspases-inhibitors can control apoptosis. There are positive pre-clinical reports of benefit in Parkinson’s disease and in brain injury. Promising results were also achieved with in vitro experiments (FIGURE 3).

2. Nicotinamide, Acetyl L-carnitine,

4. Aminoguanidine is a pluripotent agent (antioxidant and antiglycator)

which exhibits anti-apoptotic properties (5). Aminoguanidine inhibits advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and suppresses inflammatory markers such as NF-kB. By doing so, it inhibits the initiation of apoptosis and it has been found to protect against premature apoptotic loss of retinal cells (6).

5. Glutathione is a promising apoptotic modulator (7). This is involved in apoptotic signalling, oxidation damage and protein modulation, in the initiation of the apoptotic cascade.

6. The IAP (Inhibitor of Apoptosis) family of proteins are over-active in cancer (as they inhibit apoptosis, they allow cancerous cells to accumulate).

These proteins regulate caspases and ubiquitin which, in turn, influence immunity and cell signalling. Re-

search is aiming to find peptides which modulate IAP (8). Several peptidomimetics (small peptides which mimic the action of IAP) are being developed and tested.

Recombinant TRAIL for use in lung, cer and in several other cancers (9). breast colon and kidney cancers.

TRAIL (TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) is a ligand which binds to Tumor Necrosis Factor receptors inducing apoptosis. It is one of the hottest areas of research at present, and the hope is that recombinant TRAIL may be the next generation therapy in cancer. Remember however that TRAIL may not be what is needed in healthy ageing (i.e. non-cancer) because it increases the rate of apoptosis and thus may result

Conclusion

In conclusion, this is a very promising area of research that needs our attention, as there are several agents and compounds that can be used in achieving positive results. This is not to say that the currently available or future agents will be fully effective, but at least we have some information and some facts which we can work on.

In your No.4, 2015 magazine on page 22 Dr. Ward Dean mentions DHEA and pregnenolone.

Is there a difference between regular DHEA and 7-keto DHEA? Which is a better option? Also, he doesn’t reference to the amount of pregnenolone that is recommended.

Thank you!

SW, USA

Dear SW, Good Questions! Frankly, although there’s a lot of unsubstantiated claims that 7-keto DHEA is superior to DHEA, in that it is purportedly more stable and does not convert as readily in women into testosterone (as DHEA does)—I’m not convinced.

There is more hype about 7-keto than good science.

I’ve searched it on PubMed for comparative studies and there’s not much there.

Most of the solid research has been done with DHEA, NOT 7-keto. If 7-keto were so superior, I believe there would be a lot more studies out there. Pregnenolone levels, like DHEA, drop predictably with age.

I recommend pregnenolone at 25-50 mg, taken first thing in the morning

(as with DHEA), since that’s when levels are normally the highest. Its dosage can be titrated up or down, based on blood levels of pregnenolone and its major metabolite, progesterone.

Nevertheless, I also think you’re on the right track by taking NAC (to increase your glutathione levels) and vitamin C. Vitamin C has been often reported by scientists in Sweden and Italy as a treatment for elevated intraocular pressure since the early 1960s. (1-4) However this remedy escaped the attention of ophthalmologists in the US until 1995, when reported by Dr. Herschell Boyd. (5) Dr. Boyd administered doses of ascorbic acid (averaging 10 grams per day) to 30 patients with elevated intraocular pressure. Average pressure reduction was about 5 mm Hg, although one patient experienced a drop of 13 mm Hg, and seven patients experienced reductions of 10-12 mm Hg. Dr. Mark Babizhayev at IVP, the inventors of Can-C™ eye-drops reported that N-acetyl-carnosine is a useful adjunct in open angle glaucoma. He believes that the anti-glycosylation properties of Can-C™ reduce the accumulation of proteins from around the Schlemm canal (the valve in the eye), which over time reduces

pressure in the eye by allowing more waste materials to from the eye. Dr. Babizhayev also has stated that beta blocker eye-drops used for glaucoma may actually have additional benefit when combined with Can-C™ to help further reduce the intraocular pressure.

Bottom line, I recommend that you continue as you are doing with your Ganfort drops, NAC and high-dose vitamin C, and consider adding Can-C™ (eye drops and oral) to your regime.

Dear Dr. Dean, I have been a customer of yours for about 8 or 9 years. I would like to try again one of the thyroid medications and some of your smart drugs but find when I do within 4 or 5 days I fall into a drugged-like state. I even experience this with things like CoQ10 and the like.

I have been diagnosed with low adrenal reserve and am on prednisolone 2.5mg in the morning and 1mg in the afternoon. I asked my endocrinologist about this ‘drugged feeling’ but he did not have an answer. It is very frustrating because I’m sure I have an underfunctioning thyroid despite my blood levels returning a low but not deficient result. My mind is very foggy and my concentration terrible. I have other symptoms corresponding to low thyroid all of which I’ve had for about 10 years (since a complete hysterectomy - I am female 53 years). Do you have any suggestions?

JMD., USA Dear JMD, I understand how you feel.

Many of my patients have come to me out of desperation due to their physicians’ failing to appreciate their hypothyroid state. As I’ve said repeatedly, thyroid blood tests (as interpreted by current standards) are largely a waste of blood. I provide a questionnaire which gives a good indication of one’s thyroid status.

Although all of the signs/ symptoms listed can be caused by other conditions, when an abundance of the responses are positive, there is a good likelihood that the underlying cause is an under-functioning thyroid.

I start such patients on a low dose of desiccated porcine thyroid, (Armour®, Nature-Throid® or ERFA®) and gradually titrate the dose to a dose that alleviates many or most of the symptoms, but does not cause an abnormal elevation in the patient’s heart rate or body temperature.

Usually, the response is gratifying to both physician and patient.

Metformin is best known for its insulin-receptor-sensitizing properties.

However, less well known is that it is a multi-hormone receptor sensitizer peripherally, as well as a central hypothalamic

receptor sensitizer. Consequently, metformin helps your body respond to all of the hormones in a more efficient manner—including thyroid and adrenal hormones.

It is important to also consider the adrenals, as you are doing. The BEST remedy for adrenal dysfunction was the old pharmaceutical Adrenal Cortical Extract, which was knocked off the formulary of US physicians in the late 1970s. I’ve been searching for a replacement ever since. Adrenal Cortical Extract was an oil or water soluble preparation for injection, comprised of bovine adrenal cortex, containing a range of all adrenal cortical factors in low concentrations—hardly enough to do anything, by today’s pharmaceutical standards.

Nevertheless, it somehow “reset” the adrenals, and enabled those suffering from adrenal exhaustion to function normally. It was GREAT stuff.

You are doing the best you can with what we’ve got available. As you’ve found, prednisolone is the BIG gun, but must be judiciously used. Hydrocortisone is more forgiving—but chronic use can result in problems, as well.

I think a combination of the Russian peptides (Thyreogen® and Glandokort®) and metformin, in conjunction with low doses of hydrocortisone and appropriate doses of porcine thyroid will help your adrenals to recover.

In addition, I’d consider pregnenolone (25 mg in the morning) and DHEA (also 25 mg in the morning). In view of your hysterectomy, you might also consider topical progesterone cream. That may be the ‘missing link.”

Ward Dean, MD Dear Dr. Dean, What product would you recommend for rebuilding a heart after viral myocarditis?

RH, UK Dear RH, If you’re concerned about any residual virus, I’d treat with several courses of IAS’s 1st Line™. The thiocyanate in this formula has been shown to be very effective in eradicating many viruses.

As there are no specific therapies for myocarditis, I’d strongly consider the Russian peptide bioregulators Chelohart®, in conjunction with the pineal

When I asked Professor Dilman what he considered the best antiaging drug, he responded without hesitation, “phenformin.” peptide Endoluten®. When using the peptides for any condition, the Russians have found that combining the organ-specific peptide (i.e., Chelohart) with the pineal “master regulator” (Endoluten) has been most effective. A course of therapy is one or two capsules of each formula for ten days.

For chronic conditions or to maintain benefits, this can be repeated every two or three months, as needed.

I’d also consider IAS’ powerful anti-inflammatory formulas, CurcuminSR™ and Boluoke®.

I need to stay on the Thyreogen as regular therapy?

I am also taking other biopeptides: (Cerluten®, Glandokort®, Sigumir®, Gotratix®, Endoluten®), I did read that they can be taken together and do not conflict with each other.

Added to this therapy is GHRP2 & sermorelin, Gerovital®, Nootropil®, Centro-Pro™, vitamin D and Peo-Pro™. I also use bio-identical HRT which I cannot seem to regulate since I’ve been on the biopeptides.

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 age-related 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

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).

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 individual 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 healthspan and longevity.

Apart from recognising the types of effects listed above, your doctor can of course get your blood levels of

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.

SPOTLIGHT: PEPTIDE BIOREGULATORS THE DI SCOVERY OF G ENE SWITCHES IN FOOD Today Professor Vladimir Khavinson is the President of the European Academy of Gerontology and Geriatrics, but in the 1980’s he was a Colonel in the Soviet Union military medical corps. At the time, he and his team were approached by Kremlin officials, they wanted them to find a way to protect their troops from a myriad of problems; issues such as radiation for submariners in nuclear submarines to troops that may be blinded from known, (but thankfully unused) new weapons such as battlefield lasers.

A former Soviet military secret!

What their research uncovered - that was used for two decades on many thousands of men and women - was a remarkable link between short chain peptides and DNA. This former military secret is now available to the public as peptide bioregulators.

Their published research has identified that each organ /

Above: A short-chain peptide bioregulator interacting with DNA

gland / tissue uses a highly specific short chain peptide, obtained from food, to act as a ‘short-cut’ to initiate protein synthesis. These peptides, unlike proteins, can enter the blood through the stomach.

Through a comprehensive list of patents and even copyrighted PowerPoint slides, the Russian research group have shown that each of the concentrated peptide bioregulators so far examined, interact with particular strands of DNA - effectively and very specifically activating repair and regenerative processes.

This is a remarkable story since what we are describing here are peptides that act as individualised gene switches. To

date, they have been tested for many years on thousands of individuals, without report of any serious side effects or contraindications. We believe that they could be set to ‘out do’ stem cells. Why? 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. They are not the synthetic versions which have not been studied/ proven.

Peptide bioregulators act as they sound- to regulate;

for example, Thyreogen® the thyroid peptide would increase thyroid activity if it were too low, but decrease it if it were too high!

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.

The story of the peptide bioregulators is a remarkable one and we recommend that you to read the articles and interviews and see the video on the IAS website.

SPOTLIGHT: CENTROPHENOXINE Centro-Pro™, the leading brand of centrophenoxine used by its expert, Professor Imre Zs.-Nagy and his patients.

IMPROVES R EC ALL S PEED

The term ‘smart drugs’ has become synonymous with substances that aid memory and cognition, although the correct medical terminology is ‘nootropics’ (which when translated from the Greek is - ‘towards the mind’). As shown in the insert, centrophenoxine is an ester of PCPA (a plant compound) and DMAE which is a natural choline-based substance found in the diet.

The molecular structure of centrophenoxine, showing its combination of PCPA and DMAE.

Background Centrophenoxine has been studied extensively over many decades, principally in Europe and one of its leading proponents is the Gerontology expert, Professor Imre Zs.-Nagy, whom utilises it for his own antiaging purposes, keeping his mind sharp.

could be said for all senile dementia medications, since trying to revert the damage of a mid-late stage dementia is very difficult. The target therefore is at the earliest stage of dementia, or even before then,

from taking place, reducing the transference of chemicals through the cell wall, thus damaging both messaging and detoxification abilities. Indeed this inhibition and the inherent loss of lipidity that accompanies it, forms a significant part of Professor Zs.-Nagy’s ‘membrane hypothesis of aging.’ What we do know, is that when significant amounts of lipofuscin are present in the brain, they are then referred to as ‘plagues’ and then become recognised trait of Alzheimer’s.

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?

Professor Imre Zs.-Nagy says; “Centrophenoxine has shown many facets to improve conditions related to my membrane hypothesis of aging.

For example, its ability to improve brain performance, survival time in animal experiments and to remove the cell-aging pigment called lipofuscin. 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 disease- leading to its devastating effects. Yet, centrophenoxine doesn’t make significant improvements for Alzheimer patients in this way, (note, there is another important action mentioned later on), although the same

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 be very troublesome for the cell because it inhibits proper functioning

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.

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.

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: 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.

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 menopause- they 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.

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 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.

What’s available?

• Body milk: The body milk is a very light cream that can be applied to most areas of the body.

• Day cream: The day cream is the core product designed to be applied to the face and hands.

• Serum: The serum is designed to be used sparingly against the most noticeable skin aging effects on the face and neck.

• Tonic: This cleanser can be used to help any area become more firm and taught and may be splashed on as required.

All of the Youth Gems® should be applied onto clean, dry skin- avoiding the eyes; makeup can be applied after absorption - if required.

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 needproviding 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!

Professor Peskin maintains that the super-high doses in fish oils are extreme when compared to those manufactured within the body.

Furthermore, even the OXYGEN MAGNETS! omega 3 to omega 6 EFAs work like tiny “magnets” drawing Oxygen EFAs oxygen into all cells, tissues balance they provide and vital organs.

O O could be wrong and Reduce oxygen by only 1/3 and a cell O turns cancerous, forever! that the body may HEART LUNGS actually require more omega 6 than is currently being advocated today. Did you know that when a bear eats a fish he throws away the body?

Figure: Essential fatty acids provided via Could it be that the bear wants PEOs work like magnets, drawing oxygen into cells and tissues. Reduce oxygen the omega 6 provided by the fish content in cells by one third and they can brain and not the omega 3 that become cancerous. is within its body? (The fish uses omega 3 as an anti-freeze due to contains organically produced, its cold water environment). cold-pressed seed oils, these include high linoleic safflower PEO-Pro™ oil, sunflower oil, evening IAS has always been ‘on the primrose oil and flax oil, all in cutting-edge.’ It may remain the proportions derived from controversial, however we have Professor Peskin’s research. taken the decision to remove Maintenance doses are 1 or fish and krill based oils from 2 capsules daily; for those with our range and replace them greater need, 1 capsule per 40 lbs with PEOs that are contained in (18 Kg) bodyweight per day may PEO-Pro™. be more suitable.

SPOTLIGHT: BIOCUFF

™

MONITOR ING YOU R VA SCU L AR CONDITION The BioCUFF™ is a simple way of assessing both your blood pressure condition and your arterial flexibility; plus, you can use the BioCUFF™ 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 BioCUFF™ measure?

The BioCUFF™ 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 BioCUFF™ is unique being as it is the first at-home

Above: The BioCUFF™ readout, showing both blood pressure, heart rate and vascular flexibility results.

device able of delivering this information to you within minutes.

What is arterial flexibility?

The BioCUFF™ 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 BioCUFF™ 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 BioCUFF™ makes this simple by averaging your tests over time and therefore provides a more accurate result.

BioCUFF™ provides reassurance and a vital early warning system that helps you to be aware of changes and therefore keep your vascular condition in check.

Left: Three groups (each approximately 80 persons) were monitored over 140 months for their survivability. Those in the flexible artery groups (marked as PWV <9.4 m/s and 9.4-12.0 m/s) survive best losing approx. 25%. But those in the hard artery group (marked as PWV >12.0 m/s) 90% of them die in the same period. Source: ESRD, Blacher et al.
