Our guest is Dr. Bill Andrews - the President and CEO of Sierra Sciences. As a scientist, athlete and executive, he continually pushes the envelope and challenges convention. He has been featured in Popular Science, The Today Show and numerous documentaries on the topic of life extension.
Peter Greenlaw-Author, Speaker and Coach Steve Toth - Host, Moderator are having a dialouge with Dr. Andrews about Why Telomeres are the Cellular "Fountain of Youth" and explore what science has revealed about telomeres, including why Dr. Andrews plans to run a 7 minute mile at the age of 130!
Telomeres are the protective caps at the ends of our chromosomes that work much like the plastic caps at the end of a shoelace. Recent research has shown that telomere "shortening" plays an important role in human disease and mortality.
