<div dir="ltr">I don't know the members of Friam personally, but I
get the impression it's not exactly a youth club and maybe some
might be interested in living healthier longer? (Compared to
most others in our culture). I've been following the longevity
work of David Sinclair and just maybe one of you might find it
interesting?. I quote: <br>
"David A. Sinclair, Ph.D., A.O. is a Professor in the Department
of Genetics and co-Director of the Paul F. Glenn Center for
Biology of Aging Research at Harvard Medical School".<br>
<a href="https://sinclair.hms.harvard.edu/people/david-sinclair" target="_blank">https://sinclair.hms.harvard.edu/people/david-sinclair</a><br>
If you navigate the site you'll find a list of his publications.<br>
<br>
A short video clip from an interview with David where he
discusses plant- vs meat-diets. His conclusion is that to live
healthier longer (as opposed to merely living longer) one should
(amongst many other things) not eat meat, especially not read
meat. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmRzeD4_41M" target="_blank">www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmRzeD4_41M</a>
<br>
<br>
Disclaimer: according to David, vegetarianism is not the most
important factor in living healthier longer, it's probably
relatively low on the list, so die-hard carnivores (like myself)
can still eat moderate amounts of red meat and still live
healthier longer.<br>
<br>
To conclude, a short presentation by David about his work on
longevity in general: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0V-IaeVCHlw" target="_blank">www.youtube.com/watch?v=0V-IaeVCHlw</a><br>
