5. MSNBC.com Spartan diet may slow agingNIH launches study to test practicality By Rob Stein The Washington Post As the rest of the nation has been supersizing, a small cadre of Americans such as Francesca Skelton have been radically downsizing their diets — not to slim down their physiques but to slow down the hands of time. Skelton is an adherent to the theory that "caloric restriction" can hold back the aging process by fundamentally altering basic metabolic functions in ways that protect the body from decaying as quickly. So for years, the District grandmother and others like her have been eating often radical diets carefully calibrated to slash calories they consume each day while still providing their bodies with the nutrients they need.

6. Green Tea and Longevity Green Tea Consumption (Cups/Day) Prospective, 11-year cohort study of 8,552 subjects in Yoshimi, Japan, 1986-1997. From: H. Fujiki et al., Ann. N.Y.Acad.Sci., 928:274, 2001; used with author’s permission

8. Aging Symptoms Antioxidants Addresses the Root Cause of Aging: DNA Damage • DNA (DeoxyriboNucleic Acid) is your genetic blueprint • DNA enables healthy cell renewal into old age

9. Most Vulnerable to free radicals… Cell Membrane DNA

10. Free Radical Sources • Environmental pollution (smog, ozone, NO2) • Radiation exposure: • sunlight (UV-light), X-rays, etc. • Smoking: • 10,000,000,000,000,000 free radicals/cigarette! • Eating and Breathing: metabolism in your mitochondria

12. MSNBC.com • Starve Your Way to HealthIt works for mice and fruit flies, but can ultra-low-calorie diets extend the life of humans? • By Jerry Adler and Anne Underwood • Newsweek • Jan. 19 issue - If the world is divided into people who live to eat and those who eat to live, perhaps there ought to be a third category for Brian Delaney. At 5 feet 11 inches and 139 pounds, Delaney, 40, is really, really thin. Thin, and hungry. He limits his calories to 1,800 a day, in part by eating just two meals, except when he has a dinner date, in which case that's the only meal he eats. After 10 years on this regimen—actually, he started out at 1,400 calories a day, less than half of what the average American male consumes—he still experiences "the same pit in my stomach" every afternoon, but now finds it "easier to deal with." Especially when he thinks of all the diseases he's avoiding. If Brian Delaney is right, he may well have the last laugh on the rest of humanity ... sometime in the 22d century.

13. Aging so far… • DNA damage • Cell membrane damage • Uncontrolled free radical leakage from Mitochondria The most common link?Free Radicals

14. Antioxidant Health Benefits Journal of the American Medical Association “… low levels of the antioxidant vitamins (vitamins A, E, and C) may increase risk for several chronic diseases. Most people do not consume an optimal amount of all vitamins by diet alone.” “It appears prudent for all adults to take vitamin supplements.” Robert H. Fletcher, MD, MSc; Kathleen M. Fairfield, MD, DrPH, Harvard UniversityJournal of the American Medical Association 2002; 287: 3127-3129

39. Carotenoids Predict Antioxidant Status • Recent paper published in the Journal of Nutrition • Carotenoids (blood) are indicator of total antioxidant status • Carotenoids interact with the antioxidant network • Vitamin E (blood) is not a good indicator of antioxidant status

40. Carotenoid molecules shift blue laser light color to green: from 473 nm to 510 nm Raman Spectroscopy Intense monochromatic light (one color only) interacts with molecules that have vibrational energy (e.g., carotenoids) and gets scattered at a higher wavelength (color).
