Rather, it is a complicated protocol, a set of diagnostic procedures and prescriptions for drugs, supplements, diet, exercise and life style, individualized to each patient, and requiring an expert to supervise. He's training experts as fast as he can. Series: Daily Inspiration (440 Articles, 494331 views)

Anti-aging, oxymorons, and antioxi-morons Anti-aging medicine is on the cusp of radical life extension, but this isn't "natural medicine". You can't make yourself young by eating organic. It also isn't about anti-oxidants, which have failed in clinical trials and lab tests time and again. Instead, we will be tweaking our hormone profile to make old people young.

The Designated Hitter Is President Obama, as portrayed in the media, a weak negotiator, too eager to accommodate, ineffective at bringing his goals and policies to fruition?
