Reverse aging pioneer, lecturer and author Bill Faloon is slated to speak at the Old Fort Bay Club on Wednesday.
Mr Faloon is 69, but claims his biological vitals are those of a 53-year-old. He plans to discuss the realities of what leads to the aging process and how it can be reversed as the co-founder of the Life Extension Foundation.
His free lecture on May 1 will be Mr. Faloon’s second appearance in The Bahamas and will be open to the public. Organizers anticipate the event will draw hundreds, and interested people will need to make reservations due to limited capacity of 200.
Mr Faloon has been studying the aging, anti-aging and reverse aging process for more than 40 years, and his popular publication Life Extension has been read by millions. His talk will focus on information related to the science of reversing biological age research that has contributed to a variety of biomedical explorations since 1977, and has led to discoveries extending human health spans.
Mr Faloon has also authored countless articles on health and nutrition and a medical reference book entitled ‘Disease Prevention and Treatment’.
“We’ve witnessed over the past eight years an avalanche of scientific discoveries about controlling biological aging” said Mr Faloon.
Referring to his own progress, Mr Faloon said that blood testing has confirmed his biological age is 54, although he is 68 years of age. Dr. David Sinclair, a Harvard Medical School professor of Aging Research, has reported similar results with his own biological and chronological age differing by a decade. Both Mr Faloon and Sinclair link their reverse aging findings to advances in cancer prevention as well as healthy longevity.
One of Mr Faloon’s age reversal findings is the use of Senolytic supplements and Senolytic drugs. In the study, senescent cells were implanted into mice, making them age faster. The Senolytics, Dasatinib and Quercetin, which were used in the study caused the “self-destruction” of senescent cells, which led to less damage on healthy cells throughout the body. All animals in the study were found to have a longer lifespan by 36 percent.
Results of this study also show that Senolytic agents, when present in the body, can destroy senescent cells resulting in slowing down, and even reversing biological aging. Persons can naturally get a healthy intake of Senolytic supplements such as quercetin and fistin through certain fruits and vegetables. Those in high concentration include citrus fruits, apples, red onions, kale, grapes, berries, and cherries.
Mr Faloon mentions medications like Rapamycin that have been tested on several species of animals and have additionally shown promising results to slow aging and extend maximum lifespan up to 50 to 60 percent according to gerontologists.
While research in the emerging field is science-based and tied to biological and anatomical results, Mr Faloon will address next week’s audience in lay terms, describing how certain supplements interact with the body to literally turn back the hands of time.
Mr Faloon has said his goal is to see to it that everyone around the globe has the opportunity to understand what he calls “the simple measures” to living a longer and healthier life. As a part-time resident of The Bahamas, he hopes to use The Bahamas as a landmark for the process.

If that is his hair and he's not dying it, I'll take a vial of blood to go please. Lol.
"Open to the public".
"Organizers anticipate the event will draw hundreds, and interested people will need to make reservations due to limited capacity of 200...
"..slated to speak at the Old Fort Bay Club"
Ok fool me once.

Not meant to dismiss the topic, "fool me once" was a jest at the marketing: "open to the public", "expecting hundreds", oh but there's only seating for "200" and its out "Old Fort Bay".

Say reverse aging.....holy moly. How does he know how to find those people in that area, just like the ballet people. Even Janet Jackson found her way here lately.....is somebody telling these people there are rich , gullible people to be had here?

It is sad that many people are afraid of growing old, and even more afraid of dying. Why be fearful? Do you really want to live forever? Why, is your life so sweet?

I believe reverse aging is a thing. The name probably doesnt help the science. its not about not aging or not dying its about aging well. Like most science there are likely native peoples around the world who are relatively poor who are living the theory, then some researcher stumbles on them and turns it into a business, leaving the native community behind and poor. Are there charlatans in science? Sure, doesnt mean science doesnt exist. In general noone knows the time of their death, but reaching that point in good health, with vigor while being able to enjoy life whatever your circumstances is a good thing

Just another Sam bankman and ftx. We , in the Bahamas, seem to attract them. They see us just as cumbus did. I have a bunch of bananas, show me where the gold is. Let us see which bahamians he attract. Hopefully, Bahamians have learned their lesson from all the oyher scammers.

My hair gets like that when I infuse it with a potion called L'Oreal. I can sell it to you for one thousand a bottle .

Faloon is a high falooting chap.

Actually there is a lot of well respected and increasing science behind this now. The Israelis did a study with people aged over 64 using Hyperbaric Oxygen, and the participants' telomeres (a marker of aging) got provably longer. I believe that was a world first. Equally, Harvard's Dr. Sinclair has had some significant successes with animals. And now Gene Therapy is showing early stage Alzheimer's can perhaps be reversed after all, or at least slowed down.
CNN just ran a story on one of the biological age methods which was also very informative. https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/07/health...">https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/07/health... If we can slow down aging and illness through good science, sounds positive to me...

Biggest delusion of humans is to think they can actually go to war with aging and dying......c'mon man.

There's something there, "generally". The role of research is to test the boundaries. Something as simple as losing weight is "anti-aging", back pain, knee pain, neck pain, posture, breathing etc and regimented physical activity can be "reverse aging". A large percentage of Bahamians never know/feel the difference. I wont dismiss that at a cellular level there's more there, cant say if this is it. Could be good genes.

Exactly - the science is inexorably progressing... These types of developments to lengthen health spans and live healthier, longer lives are inevitable. Why shouldn't the Bahamas benefit from the best science...
