- W148216412 abstract "Individuals are ultimately responsible for the level of engagement they will have with anti-aging technologies and philosophies, but their interest may be met with a bewildering array of resources. Information about anti-aging science ranges from the seemingly credible to the totally implausible. While it is easy to discredit outlandish claims, the seemingly true articles are more difficult to assess. box on page 70 contains a set of criteria offered by the Moody Medical Library of the University of Texas Medical Branch for the evaluation of websites. These criteria could easily be adapted to print media and a good first step in assessing the validity of most anti-aging resources. This compilation is not a comprehensive review of anti-aging information resources, but rather a guide to resources that can serve as tools for assessing the claims of anti-aging therapies against accepted medical and gerontological practice. second part of the guide includes topics from the articles that seemed especially relevant because of the amount of popular attention they have received in the media. guide ends with Web addresses of many sites with information about aging, which can be searched with queries on anti-aging. Finally, the Web addresses of longevity organizations and groups are included. CURRENT STATE OF SCIENTIFIC ANTI-AGING RESEARCH Several books, articles, and websites are good starting points for an exploration of the current state of anti-aging research. Books and Articles Quest for Immortality, Science at the Frontiers of Aging by S. J. Olshansky and B. A. Carnes (New York: Norton, 2001). This book is written by two well-recognized biodemographers and identifies the historical precedents of modern anti-aging beliefs. It also explains the increase in life expectancy and the difficulty of increasing the lifespan. It also describes the most up to date science in the study of the biology of aging. The Illusion of Cell Immortality by L. Hayflick, British Journal of Cancer (2000) 83 (7): 841-6. This article helps define what immortality would mean on a cellular level and explains the role of telomeres and telomerase in aging. demise of a cell's telomeres may have only an indirect association with age changes. Prospects for Human by S. J. Olshansky, B. A. Carnes, and A. Desesquelles Science (2000) 291 (Feb. 23) 1491-2. This article explains the difficulties in adding more years of life expectancy to a population that already has low infant mortality authors do not believe that anything can be done to mimic the dramatic rise in life expectancy seen earlier in the century. The Future of Ageing by L. Hayflick, Nature (2000) 408 (Nov.) 267-9. Websites In Search of the Secrets of Aging www.nia.nih.gov/health/pubs/secrets-of-aging This is an excellent report from the National Institute on Aging that covers research into the biology of aging. Public site of the American Federation for Aging Research www.infoaging.org This site delivers the latest research-based information on a wide range of age-related diseases, conditions, issues, features, and news. It offers information about new aging research for a nonmedical, lay audience. International Longevity Center-usA (ILC-USA) www.ilcusa.org ILC-USA is a not-for-profit, nonpartisan research and education organization which has as its mission to help societies address longevity and population aging in positive and productive ways and to highlight older people's productivity and contributions to their families and society as a whole. center is an affiliate of Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York. Prescription for Longevity: Fads and Reality www.ilcusa.org/publications/consequences_final_ press.pdf This webpage displays an article that explains the thinking of the mainstream scientific community on appropriate anti-aging interventions and is sponsored by the International Longevity Center. …" @default.
