Semi-related to my recent discussion about taking too many (prescription) drugs as we get older, I read this on Reuters today:
“Studies in yeast, rodents and other organisms have found that drastically cutting calories extends life span, and researchers are striving to find out how that happens. The hope is that human drugs may be developed to mimic that effect, without having to eat less.”
As a Tod laughed “In other news, scientists are busy researching how to spend even more money after you’ve used up all the money you had before.”
Sure I am not the only one who thinks this is insane…
