At our first online conference, Ending Age-Related Diseases 2020, Dr. Brian Kennedy of the National University of Singapore discussed the aging population of Singapore, the need for comprehensive healthcare, alpha-ketoglutarate and its effects against frailty in mice, ongoing trials of ketoglutarate in humans, spermidine against obesity, the role of biomarkers, and the importance of keeping people well rather than simply treating them when they are sick.

Age-related diseases, such as Alzheimer's, heart disease, and cancer, are some of the worst drains on our society, both in terms of personal suffering and socio-economic effects. One of the reasons why our work is so important is that, historically, research aimed at tackling these diseases has been focused at the end stages of such maladies, when it is too late to reverse the damage that has been done. A good analogy is a tree: what makes more sense — spending a ton of money trying to cure a branch of a branch, or directing that focus to the trunk of the tree itself? Aging is the greatest risk factor for all of these major diseases, and in many cases, it is ultimately the primary cause. While it may seem hard to believe, biological science has finally progressed enough to begin targeting the root mechanisms of aging, and — thanks to the efforts of the world-renowned researchers and labs we work with, such as Drs. David Sinclair, George Church, and Aubrey de Grey — is beginning to bring aging, and therefore these diseases, under medical control. Everything we've done thus far, and everything we will do in the future, is thanks to your support, and that is why we are asking you to stand with us - to be a Lifespan Hero and help us improve the lives of not just ourselves and our family members, but everyone in the entire world. Together, we can do this. Be a Hero.
