It has been estimated that the entire body of medical knowledge is now doubling every three and a half years. One result of this amazing progress is a clear understanding of the fundamental life and aging processes at the molecular level. It shows you how you can add twenty or thirty years more of young, active life. A radical new understanding of what aging is and what can be done to stop and reverse it has been achieved.
