that once you target the process of aging and slow down aging, it will slow<br />

down the diseases as well as aging’s pathology. He added that this is<br />

revolutionary and never happened in the previous years.<br />

Lithgow also said that he was doing the research for several years now and the<br />

concept they’re trying to talk about is the clinical trials in the human beings<br />

for anti-aging drugs would’ve been though inconceivable. However, there’s a<br />

reason to believe that it is possible.<br />

The future is taking the biology that they have now developed as well as<br />

implementing to the humans. Back then, the process of aging is a total<br />

mystery, yet with today’s advancement, many scientists and experts<br />

understand it slowly.<br />

The Better Way To understand Aging process<br />

Aging isn’t an inevitable part of one’s life because every cell contains a DNA<br />

blueprint that keeps the body functioning properly. Several marine creatures<br />

don’t age at all. But, over the lifetime billions of the cell divisions should occur<br />

to the bodies functioning properly and the more times the cells divide, the<br />

more issues creep in the process.<br />

As cell concerns grow, one’s body can’t repair the damage. In case of cancer,<br />

the cells don’t have the ability in preventing mutations and the tumors start to<br />

grow. When it comes to Alzheimer’s disease, the brain gets rid of clearing the<br />

sticky plaques. Due to this, dementia starts to develop.<br />

Overall<br />

According to the scientists, they are thinking of the best candidate for antiaging<br />

drug and they end up with Metformin, which is the most widely used<br />

drugs for diabetes in the world and available at an affordable price.<br />

Metformin increases the oxygen molecules released into the cells, which<br />

appear to improve longevity and robustness. When the Belgian researchers<br />

tested Metformin on tiny roundworms, the worms didn’t only aged slower, but<br />

also stayed healthier longer. When they tested it on mice, nearly forty percent<br />

of their lifespan was increased and their bones became much stronger.
