Wendy Zuckerman:本期节目探讨了延长健康寿命的各种方法,包括年轻血液疗法、NAD增强剂和二甲双胍等补充剂,以及健康饮食、运动和压力管理等生活方式干预。节目中还讨论了这些方法的科学依据和局限性,并强调了需要进一步研究来证实其有效性和安全性。 Jim White:通过小鼠实验研究发现,将老年小鼠与年轻小鼠进行血液循环连接可以延缓衰老,延长寿命。这表明年轻血液中可能存在某种延缓衰老的物质。 Melanie McReynolds:NAD是人体内一种重要的辅酶,随着年龄增长,其水平下降,这可能与衰老相关的多种疾病有关。NAD增强剂是NAD的前体,但其有效性和安全性仍存在不确定性,需要更多研究。 Nir Barzilai:二甲双胍(metformin)是一种用于治疗2型糖尿病的药物,研究表明它可能具有延长寿命的潜力。但一些研究结果也表明二甲双胍并不能延长寿命,需要进一步研究来证实其作用。
