A new class of drugs aimed at age-related physical and mental deterioration could change not only the nature of life, but of death. The drugs target mitochondria, the cellular power generators that provide our bodies with chemical energy. Over time, mitochondria accumulate damage, causing cells and eventually tissues to malfunction and break down. If the pattern holds in people, death would not be preceded by months or years of suffering. It would also come without warning, forever catching family and loved ones by surprise. I started wondering what form death would take when diseases of aging are eliminated. "Surprisingly, this straight-forward question is not very easy to answer. "They die of natural death ....probably their heart stops to beat!" Hey Denis,You missed a couple. Alpha Lipoic acid which is a better anti-oxidant than E or C. Rhodiola Rosea, a Russian herb that also calms you down. (You can grow that last one.) |
