as we'll get to for brain health, that brain clock. So these are factors that not enough are paying attention to that we can do a lot today. And they're just the beginning of what I call this lifestyle plus, because there's so many dimensions. It's not just the three that we've been hearing about for so long.

So plus means, first of all, the devil in the details about nutrition and exercise and sleep. And then beyond that, things like social isolation. Okay. The environmental factors like air pollution, microplastics, forever chemicals, being out in nature, outdoors. So these factors are not just... you know, what we're eating and our exercise, those are paramount.

All these things have been associated with healthy aging. And so the woman in the book who's featured, Mrs. LR, here she is, she's 98, and she's the picture of health, cognitively crisp. She's doing her jigsaw puzzles and oil paintings. You know, she's amazing. And she is vibrant with her social group. Her kids... have died already and her parents died in their 50s. So it isn't the genes.

And that's one of the things that I think a lot of people feel they're doomed because they have bad genes. But it isn't. It's so much of this is our lifestyle that can override or independent of any genes that we have, be associated with a healthy aging process.

There is nothing that's been proven in people to promote the slowing or reversing of aging, whether they're pills or compounds or infusions, transfusions. None of that is proven to have an anti-aging effect in human beings. There's a lot of that that's been looked really good in mice or rats. but not in people. So we'll start with rapamycin. A lot of people are taking this drug.

It suppresses our immune system. That could be very risky to do that. And unfortunately, too many people are advocating that. There's nicotinamide, NAD+, a supplement. There are no data to show that it improves healthy aging in people. There's this epigenetic reprogramming, very elegant. It could cause cancer. It isn't in people yet, but it's certainly a risk.
