Intermittent fasting diet plans, meal kits, fitness trackers, and biological age tests can all offer something to busy people who want to feel in control. More than one in 10 Americans (12%) tried intermittent fasting in 2023, according to one food and beverage industry-backed survey. The business of intermittent fasting phone apps is blossoming and is on track for more growth in the next five to 10 years. There are many ways to do intermittent fasting — from skipping breakfast to whole days without foodPeople have been fasting for as long as people have been people.

☆ What is a typical degree of cognitive ability for a person in their 80s?
  + stars: | 2024-02-09 | by ( Mira Cheng | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +10 min
How we change as we ageA decline in cognitive abilities is a normal part of healthy aging, said Dr. Emily Rogalski, Rosalind Franklin Professor of Neurology at the University of Chicago. A diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment is made clinically when cognitive difficulties become frequent and fall outside what is considered normal aging. “There’s not a whole lot of good evidence that there’s anything special about age 80 that leads to a drop-off” in cognitive abilities, Mather said. And they use cognitive tests, such as the Mini Mental Status Exam (MMSE) or Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA), to assess performance in different cognitive areas. Although population-level data associates aging with cognitive decline, the actual manifestation of aging is very diverse on an individual level, Rogalski said.

☆ The 5 supplements scientists recommend for longevity

Supplements like vitamin D or magnesium may be in order. Vitamin D is essential for our bone density, helping us convert calcium into strength. Generally, we absorb most of our vitamin D from the sun, so many people choose to supplement their vitamin D intake in the wintertime, when we aren't getting as many rays outside. AdvertisementLongevity doctor Peter Attia pops several different kinds of magnesium every day, to promote healthy aging. Fine-tune your diet and exercise routine before you try supplements, experts sayLongevity experts recommend adding more vegetables, beans, nuts, and seeds into your diet.

Paldo worked for over 80 years from ages 18 to 99, and she believes working was a big contributor to her longevity. "That kept me busy, and I enjoyed working," Paldo says about her former job. Paldo's family started a sign business in Chicago producing electric signs, and Paldo was in charge of office work. "And I was the only one in the office that did all of the office work for our business, so it was enjoyable. Milman is also involved with the SuperAgers Family Study, which aims to discover the biological factors that contribute to longevity.

☆ What I learned about getting older: The scarlet letter ‘A’ is for aging
  + stars: | 2023-08-20 | by ( Dr. Sanjay Gupta | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +14 min
But I don’t think we’re all aware of the age beliefs. To do that, researchers like him are targeting the essential biology of aging – the underlying reasons why we get old. When those biological processes fail or break down, we get sick – and aging is the biggest risk factor for that deterioration. In the meantime, though, remember this: Aging is probably not nearly as bad as you might imagine. And as my mom told me, we should all truly embrace getting older, because it sure as heck beats the alternative.

☆ Louise Levy, Who Was Studied for Her Very Long Life, Is Dead at 112
  + stars: | 2023-07-27 | by ( Richard Sandomir | More About Richard Sandomir | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
When she celebrated her birthday last year, she told The Rye Record, “I’m glad I can still speak and have my sense of humor, but I would caution you not to try and live to be 112!”She had been the oldest known living person in New York State, according to LongeviQuest, which maintains a database of supercentenarians, people who have lived into a 12th decade. Mrs. Levy was one of more than 700 people, all 95 or older, recruited since 1998 to participate in a study by the Institute for Aging Research at the Albert Einstein School of Medicine in the Bronx to learn the genetic reasons for their unusually long, healthy lives. “It’s not luck,” Dr. Nir Barzilai, an endocrinologist who directs the institute, said by phone. “They exceeded luck. The biggest answer is genetics.”Using the blood and plasma of the test group, all Ashkenazi Jews — a comparatively homogeneous population whose genetic variations are easier to spot — the institute’s Longevity Genes Project has discovered gene mutations that are believed to be responsible for slowing the impact of aging on people like Mrs. Levy and protecting them against high cholesterol, heart disease, diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease.

☆ How the mind of an 80-year-old president is biologically different from a 45-year-old president's
  + stars: | 2022-09-13 | by ( Kimberly Leonard | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +23 min
It was 1988, and he'd approached President Ronald Reagan in the Cabinet room at the White House. People scoffed at the glowing hourlong media conference that President Donald Trump's White House doctor gave about his health. Reagan publicly announced he had Alzheimer's disease five years after he left the White House. Francis Shen, who teaches psychiatry at Harvard Medical School's Center for Bioethics, would like to see information about political leaders' cognitive health made public. Cognitive health should be no different, he said, because it also might affect the way presidents and members of Congress make important decisions.
