ENCORE: The Nine Hallmarks of Aging, Part 1 March 30, 2023 "Harnessing the Nine Pillars of Aging." Anti-aging researcher Greg Macpherson challenges us to embrace aging in his new book which details the current scientific theories that explain how we age. He envisions progress which will enable individuals to attain 3-digit longevity.

EGCG? 2-Hoba from Himalayan buckwheat? Resveratrol? Pterostilbene? Nicotinamide riboside? Astragalus?
