Slowing Aging
=============
- Avoid DNA damage (wear sunscreen)
- Eat less - caloric restriction
- Eat less protein
- Do exercise (HIIT)
- Be cold
- Be hot
... these trigger longevity genes to trick body into preserving genome
Reversing aging
===============
Theory
------
- Shinya Yamanaka discovered 4 factors that reset epigenome of cell back to pluriportent stem cell
- Myc, Oct3/4, Sox2 and Klf4
- dont do it all, would turn into tumor
- suggests there are ways to revert cells and reverse ageing
- David Sinclar's lab reversed aging in old mice so they could see like they were young again
- used 3/4 of the reprogramming factors, not Myc as causes cancer
- can turn system on and off to limit reversal

Notes:
Calorie restriction, mostly vegetarian diet, avoid sugar and carbs.
On weekends, he exercises at the gym and then sits in a hot sauna before plunging himself into an ice-cold pool, as well as tracks his biomarkers regularly.
Takes vitamin D, vitamin K2, and aspirin.
Takes each morning: resveratrol, NMN, and metformin
