Everything Dr. David Sinclair said on any show that made the record, most notable first. Each card names its show and opens the statement there.
Sinclair: No Biological Law Sets 120 as Human Lifespan Limit
“There's no reason why a 120 needs to be the maximum human lifespan.
There is nothing in biology that says that there is a limit, and there are many species that live a lot longer than us.”
Sinclair: Global Population Will Cap at 10 Billion Despite Longer Lifespans
“Even with slowing down aging and making us live to a 120, we're not going to overpopulate. We're going to level out at about ten billion people.”
Sinclair: Centenarians running companies will add trillions to the US economy
“That's a massive change that we will see probably in our lifetimes of people being, you know, centenarians and still running companies. That will come back in trillions of dollars in benefits to the economy and just the US economy alone.”
Sinclair: Cellular Reprogramming Could Add One Year of Life Per Year
“If the age reprogramming work that Altos is doing and I'm doing works, you could get an extra year of life every birthday.”
Sinclair: Olive Oil and Red Wine Compounds Activate Sirtuins to Improve Health
“And there are actually chemicals within those foods of a Mediterranean diet in olive oil and red wine. That we found in my lab to activate these sirtuins and probably also slow down the clock, but they certainly improve health.”
Sinclair: Cellular Autophagy Requires Three Days of Fasting to Activate
“But once you've gone more than three days, there's a special type of recycling of proteins that's very beneficial called autophagy or autophagy. And that takes about three days.”
Sinclair: Tally Health Will Release a 10x Cheaper Biological Age Test
“My student, one of my students at Harvard Has developed a technology where we can measure this clock very cheaply for at least 10 times less than that. And we're about to release a product in this, sometime this year, that would be a cheek swab”
Sinclair: 82-year-old father has no diseases after starting longevity protocol
“In his mid seventies, he went on this protocol and is now an 82 year old that's fitter than most people that age. He has no diseases, perfect mental health. His eyesight hasn't changed in all that time.”
Sinclair: Modern Youth Are Biologically Aging Faster Than Previous Generations
“And I would not be surprised if the teenagers are by the time they hit their twenties on average are older biologically than they were 2030 years ago. When I grew up because we are, we were moving. We were generally not so overweight. We were not eating as muc…”
Sinclair: Research Restored Eyesight and Reversed Aging in Mice
“About a year ago, we published that we could reverse the age of an animal. And we restored eyesight to a blind old mouse and cure glaucoma in that animal.”
Sinclair: Fasting at Least 14 Hours Triggers Measurable Metabolic Benefits
“Well, it seems to be a rule that if you fast at least 14 hours, you'll have a lot of health benefits, better metabolic stability, lower blood sugar levels, better cholesterol, these kind of things kick in.”
Sinclair: 100,000 People Die Worldwide Every Day From Aging-Related Causes
“Every day over a 100,000 people die from aging itself”
Sinclair: Sirtuin Gene Therapy Extends Lifespan in Mice
“In mice, we do this, and if you do it in the brain of a mouse, they'll live longer. Do it in the body. They can live longer, but we can't genetically modify ourselves.”
Sinclair: Fasting at least 14 hours triggers major metabolic health benefits
“Well, it seems to be a rule that if you fast at least. 14 hours, you'll have a lot of health benefits, better metabolic stability, lower blood sugar levels, better cholesterol, these kinds of things kick in.”
Sinclair: Hunger Cravings Subside After Three Weeks of Fasting
“Now, if you start fasting, and you've never done it before, you will feel hungry. There's a hormone called ghrelin, which will cause that. Of course, it's not real. Hunger is just mental state, but after three weeks, you find, I found, that the state of hunger…”
Sinclair: Eating Carbs After Protein Prevents Blood Glucose Spikes
“And also, you want to eat your carbs after you have protein, because that'll prevent your glucose from shooting up too high.”
Sinclair: Losing breath 10 minutes weekly provides substantial aerobic health benefits
“Then the third type is aerobic, and the minimum amount to have benefits pretty substantial benefits, though, would be to lose your breath at least once a week, preferably three times a week for 10 minutes.”
Sinclair: Having a reliable partner is among the top drivers of longevity
“It's been shown by studying hundreds of people over their lifetimes that one of the most important, if not the most important factor, is to have a reliable partner. A pet can substitute for that if you don't have one of those at the time. But yeah, you want co…”
Sinclair: High Lp(a) affects ~30% of people and reduces lifespan
“LP little a is the worst. You know, about 30% of us have this, and we're destined, if we don't do something, to have a short lifespan.”
Sinclair: Rapamycin extends animal lifespan even when started late in life
“There are animal studies you can, I could point to that show that you can have, affect this mTOR pathway with a drug called rapamycin that extends their lifespan, even if they're the equivalent of 70 years old.”
Sinclair: Matcha Green Tea Extracts Delay Hunger and Skip Breakfast
“There's one called, for short, ECGC, which is known to be a xenohromatic molecule to turn on the body's defenses, and pretty much every morning I start my day with one of these, and it's a great way to start because there's, of course, no sugar in here,
It's b…”
Sinclair: Depriving rats of sleep for two weeks causes diabetes
“If you stop a rat from sleeping for just two weeks, it will develop diabetes.”
Sinclair: Finnish studies show sauna bathing dramatically protects heart health
“There's now a lot of evidence that being in a sauna is good for heart health at a minimum. There's a lot of studies of thousands of mostly men in Finland that do sauna bathing, as they call it. And they are protected dramatically, like they are exercising.”
Sinclair: Take Resveratrol With Fat to Ensure Proper Absorption
“I take a gram of it every morning with rare exceptions when I'm traveling and I forget it, but I mix it with a little bit of yogurt because it, just a little bit, like a couple of teaspoons, or today I had a bit of avocado because resveratrol is insoluble in w…”
