What does my 80 year old father do to stay healthy?
What we really need is robust treatments that either slow down the ageing process or reverse it to some extent. There is some promising research relating to both slowing and reversing. The current approach where we treat age related disease as individual things will never really work out in the long term<p>One thing right now that is available is rapamycin which basically improves health span and lifespan for every animal it is given, won&#x27;t make you live to 150 but will probably reduce risk of disease.<p>I am considering starting rapamycin myself as my mom was diagnosed with ALS few months ago (doesn&#x27;t seem strictly genetic as her mom and dad lived relatively long and didn&#x27;t get that disease), so I might have some risk genes..<p>World where people live to 90-100 and where increasing amount have dementia or other age related disease won&#x27;t be a nice place
