Calorie-Restricting Diets Slow Aging, Study Finds

November 18, 2014

Research out of NYU Langone Medical Center shows low-cal regimen influences brain gene expression as female mice age

The adage you are what you eat has been around for years. Now, important new research provides another reason to be careful with your calories.

Neuroscientists at NYU Langone Medical Center have shown that calorie-reduced diets stop the normal rise and fall in activity levels of close to 900 different genes linked to aging and memory formation in the brain.

In a presentation presented at the Society for Neuroscience annual meeting in Washington, D.C., on Nov. 17, researchers said their experimental results, conducted in female mice, suggest how diets with fewer calories derived from carbohydrates likely deter some aspects of aging and chronic diseases in mammals, including humans.

Our study shows how calorie restriction practically arrests gene expression levels involved in the aging phenotype how some genes determine the behavior of mice, people, and other mammals as they get old, says senior study investigator and NYU Langone neuroscientist, Stephen D. Ginsberg, PhD. Ginsberg cautions that the study does not mean calorie restriction is the fountain of youth, but that it does add evidence for the role of diet in delaying the effects of aging and age-related disease.

While restrictive dietary regimens have been well-known for decades to prolong the lives of rodents and other mammals, their effects in humans have not been well understood. Benefits of these diets have been touted to include reduced risk of human heart disease, hypertension, and stroke, Ginsberg notes, but the widespread genetic impact on the memory and learning regions of aging brains has not before been shown. Previous studies, he notes, have only assessed the dietary impact on one or two genes at a time, but his analysis encompassed more than 10,000 genes.

Ginsberg, an associate professor at NYU Langone and its affiliated Nathan S. Kline Institute for Psychiatric Research, says the research widens the door to further study into calorie restriction and anti-aging genetics.

For the study, female mice, which like people are more prone to dementia than males, were fed food pellets that had 30 percent fewer calories than those fed to other mice. Tissue analyses of the hippocampal region, an area of the brain affected earliest in Alzheimers disease, were performed on mice in middle and late adulthood to assess any difference in gene expression over time.

Aquinos dilemma on preventive and curative medicines

I have lauded in previous columns the Aquino health agenda. What used to be a utopian dream of health for all now appears to be within reach.

I feel happy when indigent patients tell me that their PhilHealth coverage took care of all, if not a big part, of their hospital bills. I thought that this was a good indicator of inclusive growth, with the countrys economic gains trickling down to the poorest of the poor.

Ive always said in my talks that, for me, President Aquino is the most health-oriented president we ever had. But his recent statements suggesting his health priorities made me wonder about his concept of Public Health and what preventive medicine entails.

There are speculations on why Health Secretary Ike Ona has gone on leave for four weeks to prepare answers to President Aquinos questions on the mass vaccination campaigns of the Department of Health. If I had read between the lines correctly, I think P-Noy is wondering why we have to spend so much money on upgrading government hospitals instead of concentrating on preventive strategies like immunization.

Govt focus

I think there can be no disagreement that the government must focus on preventive strategies. Im sure Aquino gets that kind of advice from everyone. The so-called New Public Health, or NPH, is defined as one which puts emphasis on preventive medicine. But probably it was not explained to the President that prevention does not only entail immunization or other primary preventive interventions.

When we speak of preventive medicine, were actually referring to three levels of preventionprimary, secondary and tertiary.

Primary prevention means implementing programs and services to prevent diseases such as mass immunization, and promoting the reduced usage of tobacco products and other harmful substances. Basically equipped and adequately manned primary health units should be able to handle these.

Secondary and tertiary prevention may require more well-equipped healthcare facilities.

Secondary prevention aims for early diagnosis of a disease when one has no symptoms yet. There are diseases, like high blood pressure, that may well be diagnosed in primary healthcare facilities; but others, like diabetes, cholesterol problems, early cancers, lung and liver diseases, may have to be referred to secondary or tertiary hospitals for a more thorough evaluation, early diagnosis and treatment to stop the worsening of these and prevent complications.

Anti-aging doc charged $250,000 after nearly killing man with breast cancer drug

RINGGOLD, Ga. -- A North Georgia doctor must pay a patient a quarter of a million dollars after almost killing him with medicine.

In September 2011, according to court documents, Steve Gables visited Dr. Robert Burkich's Preventive Medicine Anti-Aging & Chelation practice in Ringgold. Burkich told him he had low testosterone and prescribed him Tamoxifen.

Problem is, Tamoxifen is for breast cancer, not low testosterone. And it can cause blood clots. One day, about four months after Burkich told him to take the medicine, Gables was sitting in his living room when he felt his leg cramp.

"It was just hard," he said. "Hard as granite."

He had blood clots in his legs. One of those clots, according to court documents, broke off, traveled through his bloodstream to his throat and blocked an artery. He almost died.

Gables went to Memorial Hospital's emergency room, and a doctor asked to see all of his medication. When the doctor looked at the Tamoxifen, Gables said, he almost yelled.

"Who put you on this?" the doctor demanded.

Gables, of Ooltewah, said that was the first time he learned his medication was for breast cancer. He filed a lawsuit against Burkich. Three years later, on Oct. 24, a jury ruled in Gables' favor. Burkich now must pay him $250,000.

The doctor did not return a call seeking comment Monday. But according to his website, Burkich has been treating patients since 1989.

Gables said Burkich's prescription ruined his life. Because of the clots, he now has to take blood thinners. And because he is taking blood thinners, he said, he is vulnerable to dangerous injuries.

Dermatologists boost Skin Safety Campaign, warn about beauty experts

PDS introduces the first Guide on Dermocosmetics in the Philippines as part of its Skin Safety Campaign. Len Cristobal

The growing number of skin complications caused by procedures performed by unqualified individuals fueled the Philippine Dermatological Society (PDS) to start a Skin Safety Campaign in 2008. Today, positioning itself as the DermAuthority, the organization has expanded its platforms and now uses social media to educate Filipinos about proper skin care and safe and effective treatments for skin, hair, and nail conditions in order to prevent damaging consequences of misinformation.

Uncertified 'experts'

One of the issues raised at a media briefing with PDS in Mandaluyong on Monday was the serious problem of uncertified clinics performing cosmetic and skin treatment procedures.

Furthermore, the organization also warned the public to be mindful about heavily promoted products on TV that promise to address skin issues in a short span of time.

PDS president Dr. Rosalina Nadela reminded the public to consult only eligible dermatologists for skin care and skin diseases.

Licensed dermatologists have undergone three years of training at a hospital or institution approved by the PDS, which prides itself as the only specialty society in dermatology recognized by the Philippine Medical Association. It currently has 11 accredited dermatology training institutions:

1. Philippine General Hospital UP Manila 2. Skin & Cancer Foundation, Inc. 3. Research Institute for Tropical Medicine 4. East Avenue Medical Center 5. Jose R. Reyes Memorial Medical Center 6. Makati Medical Center 7. Ospital ng Maynila Medical Center 8. Southern Philippines Medical Center 9. St. Lukes Medical Center 10. Sto. Tomas University Hospital 11. University of the East Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center

PDS awards the Skin Safety Campaign door decal and the Seal of Excellence to certified dermatologists whose names can be found on their official website.

What is anti-aging medicine?

What comes to mind when you hear the term "anti-aging?" Most would think some type of beauty product, whether that means a topical facial cream, masks, shampoos, conditioners or laser treatments. However, anti-aging and regenerative medicine is actually a "medical specialty of active scientific research aimed at the early prevention, detection, treatment and reversal of age-related decline." It has become a remarkably cutting-edge field of medicine. A legitimate, well-trained anti-aging and regenerative medicine specialist will be certified as a diplomat of the American Board of Anti-Aging Medicine. I have earned this certification and practice in the Liberty Lake area.

The objectives of treatment using the anti-aging approach are innumerable, and can range from correction of hormonal and metabolic imbalances including diabetes, neurological problems including cognitive and neurodegenerative diseases, Alzheimer's disease, osteoporosis, musculoskeletal diseases and impairments, gastrointestinal disturbances, respiratory and cardiovascular disease, immune system and infectious diseases; as well as depression, stress and inflammation. In order for our bodies to hum the way they were designed, there needs to be a balance in system functions. The importance of pinpointing the sources of problems caused by changes that accompany the process of aging is where it begins.

Obtaining an in-depth health history, along with extensive saliva and blood testing, is the base to see where your body is now. My goal is discussing your test results and helping you to understand them and what they will mean for lifestyle changes needed to work toward optimal health. It is important to remember most disease processes did not develop overnight, so beginning on the pathway to health can be challenging at times, while also exciting when you start feeling better, stronger, and happier.

I use bio-identical hormone replacement therapy to correct and restore hormone balances to an optimal level. In the past, all values situated inside a reference lab range were considered to be optimal. This concept lacks supporting scientific evidence. The prevailing concept now is that optimal hormone levels may vary from person to person. An optimal hormone level should be a level that allows an individual to be free of the complaints and physical signs of hormone deficiency, without provoking signs of excess.

Begin now with Living Life Optimally!
