This magical molecule called Rapamycin. It turns out that this little guy has been showing some pretty impressive results in older folks. Maybe someday, Rapamycin could play a role in helping all of us stay healthier and more vibrant as we age.

RE: Cellular Senescence and aging
Let me tell you something, cellular senescence is like, the thing when it comes to aging, okay? So picture this: as cells get older, they just stop dividing and then they kind of just hang out and, well, they're not really doing anything good for your body anymore. It's like they've hit their own personal target and have decided to retire, but they're still crashing on your body's couch.
Now, imagine if we could just give those cells a little nudge, and get them back in the game. That could seriously shake things up in the aging department! So, researchers are out there looking for ways to kick these senescent cells to the curb or get them back on track.

RE: What's your exercise routine?
Currently, I'm focusing on building my endurance, so I hit up that treadmill two to three times a week, running as long as I can muster. I also pump iron three times a week. Sometimes I'll switch it up and hit up one of the high intensity body weight classes my gym offers.
