In the field of aging research, the line between science and pseudoscience is blurry. Very blurry!
When the supplements, diets, and quasi cures promoted on Instagram are pushed aside, some impressive science underlying the antiaging industry can be revealed. But discerning what claims are scientifically sound is challenging. It requires skepticism, a well-trained scientific eye, and a deep dive into the data.
On this episode of GEN Live, we’ll have a lively discussion about aging. We’ll parse fact from fiction and explore what the science really says about the possibility of lifespan extension.
A live Q&A session followed the presentation, offering a chance to pose questions to our expert panelists.
