Demonstration for healthy longevity – 1 October 2023 – Tel-Aviv Democracy Square

עמותת “ותק” קיבלה אישור לקיים הפגנה ב-1 באוקטובר, בשעה 10.00 בבוקר, בכיכר הדמוקרטיה (צומת עזריאלי-קפלן) בתל אביב.

1 באוקטובר זהו “יום הקשיש הבינלאומי” שגם מצוין ע”י קהילת קידום אריכות החיים הבריאים כ-“יום אריכות החיים הבינלאומי”.

הנושא הרשמי של ההפגנה: *העלאת מודעות לאריכות חיים בריאים*

זאת תהיה ההפגנה הראשונה בנושא ספציפי זה, בארץ ובעולם.
הנושאים העיקריים שנקדם בהפגנה הם:
העלאת קצבאות הזקנה ושיפור זכויות האזרחים הוותיקים, וכן הגברת מחקר, פיתוח וחינוך לאריכות חיים בריאים ומניעת מחלות זקנה.

ההפגנה מתקיימת ביוזמת עמותת “ותק – התנועה לאיכות ואריכות חיים” אך אנו מקווים כי עוד ארגונים ואנשים פרטיים נוספים יצטרפו.

אנחנו גם מקווים כי ההפגנה תעודד את המאבק לשיפור המעמד והבריאות של האזרחים הוותיקים, לא רק בישראל אלא בכל העולם. ואכן הפגנות שותפות, בעידוד ארגון ILA, שעמותת ותק שותפה לו, מתוכננות להתקיים ב-1 באוקטובר, “יום אריכות החיים הבינלאומי” בעוד כמה מדינות: בלגיה, גרמניה, ספרד. נשמח לעוד יוזמות.

ונשמח לראות אתכם איתנו ב-1 באוקטובר, במאבק המשותף שלנו, לא רק של האזרחים הוותיקים, אלא של כולם, להעלאת מודעות לאריכות חיים בריאים.

ההגעה להפגנה כמובן חופשית, ברוכים הבאים! אך נשמח אם תירשמו כאן, כדי שנדע כמה אנשים צפויים להגיע (התשבות לכל השאלות אופציונליות). תודה!

The Vetek Association received the permit to conduct a demonstration on October 1, at 10.00 am, at the Democracy Square (Azrieli-Kaplan intersection) in Tel Aviv.

The demonstration takes place on October 1, the “International Day of Older Persons” which is also celebrated by the Longevity community as the “International Longevity Day”.

The official theme of the demonstration is: *Raising awareness for healthy longevity*

This is the first demonstration with this specific theme, in Israel and in the world.
The topics that we will advocate for at the demonstration include: raising the old-age pensions, improving the rights of older persons, as well as enhancing research, development and education for healthy longevity and prevention of aging-related diseases.

The demonstration was initiated by the Vetek Association – the Movement for Longevity and Quality of Life, but we hope additional organizations and individuals will join.

We also hope that this demonstration will encourage the struggle for the status and health of older people, not only in Israel, but around the world. And indeed, on October 1, the “International Longevity Day”, with the encouragement of the International Longevity Alliance (ILA), there are planned partner demonstrations and events in several other countries: Belgium, Spain, Germany. We hope for more initiatives.

Hoping to see you with us, on October 1, in our common struggle, not just for the older persons, but for everyone, for raising awareness for healthy longevity.

The participation in the demonstration is of course free, welcome to join! But if you plan to attend, we will be grateful if you register here, so we know how many people can be there. All the questions are optional. Thanks!

Organizing events for the International Longevity Day / Month campaign in October

This year, as every year since 2013, there is an initiative to organize events and publications in support of healthy longevity R&D and education, during the Longevity Day or Longevity Month – starting from October 1 (the International Day of Older People, sometimes also called in the longevity community the “Longevity Day”) through the entire month of October (the “Longevity Month”). Such a campaign allows the longevity activists to present a united international front, draw the broad public attention to the longevity cause, build up the longevity communities, and exercise and enhance their organizational and outreach capabilities.

Traditionally, the International Longevity Alliance (ILA) took a strong part in promoting the Longevity Day / Month campaign, yet many like-minded organizations joined the efforts, producing hundreds of pro-longevity events in dozens of countries.

Also traditionally, since 2013, the preparations for the campaign intensify about 3 months before the events, starting from the beginning of July.

Keeping this tradition, longevity activists are encouraged to organize events and publications for the Longevity Day and Month around the world in October.

(Here are some examples of activities from the past 10 years of the campaign http://www.longevityhistory.com/longevity-day-and-longevity-month/).

This year the ILA recommends placing a focus on organizing live events (that was difficult even last year, but is feasible now), including such public activist events as demonstrations, that have been proven to be effective activist tools to draw attention to a cause for any significant and successful social movement. For this year’s International Longevity Day (October 1) some demonstrations in support of Longevity R&D and Education are already being planned in several countries – in Israel, Belgium, Germany, Spain.

If you are planning some activities for the longevity day and month (such as outdoors demonstrations or indoors meetups or publications), happy to be in touch to coordinate and publicize together to increase the general interest and impact.

اسرار اطالة العمر

 ان مساله اطاله العمر هو من المسائل الذي تحتاج لوقفه ودراسة وانه لمن الممكن  اطاله العمر ان لم يتعرض الشخص لحادث او عدوى،  وانه لمن المؤكد ان المؤكد من نهج الطب القائم حالياً  يحتاج لإعادة دراسة و طرح لأنه مع ازدياد وسائل الرفاهية والرخاء  يحتاج الانسان لمزيد من وسائل العناية والصحة فلم تكن العربات القديمة تحتوي وسائل الرفاهية كما هو الان وقس على ذلك ، إن المعمرين الذين تسمع عنهم في  ما يسمى المناطق الزرقاء blue zone نشأت على عادات وتقاليد غذائية  اهلتهم لان تطول اعمارهم ، فالمشي على الحبال مهاره قد تكتسب من الصغر وتحتاج لمجهود اكبر ان تتعلمها عند الكبر وهنا نجد ان أخصائية التغذية واللياقة البدنية و مؤخراً خبراء إطالة العمر  كل يدلو دلوه  ، حتى  انه المنظومة الطبية او الطب الحديث اصبح بحيره هل يتعامل مع علاج الشيخوخة واطاله العمر على انه امر واجب او الاكتفاء بعلاج الامراض والأعراض ، فالفرد  لا يستطيع دخول المستشفى ومقابله الطبيب ويطلب منه علاج الشيخوخة او شيء لاطاله العمر ولكن ان كان في بلد ذا رفاهيه او رخاء فقد يستطيع التوجه لمقدمه هذه الخدمة ،  وليس للشيخوخة اعتراف كمرض  من  منظمه الصحة العالمية فلا رمز مباشر لها ولكن هناك رموز غير مباشره في التصنيف الدولي للأمراض   

ICD

International classification of disease

 مثل رمز

R54:senility

XT9T: age related disease

 

 وقد يكون الحديث عن اطاله العمر به شيء من الطيش او عدم الواقعية خاصه في البلاد ضعيفة الاقتصاد وقليله الابتكار ، كذلك يجد البعض انه من الأولى ايجاد  طرق لعلاج الامراض ثم التفكير بإطالة العمر ، لكنني ارى انه الاتجاه بصوب طرق اطاله العمر سيجعل الطرق صحيحه لعلاج الامراض او تأخير ظهورها وهذا ما يؤكده الكثير من خبراء الصحة فلا ينبغي علينا اهمال صيانه العربة او اساءه استخدامها لكي لا تذهب لإصلاحها ودفع مبالغ باهضه لإصلاح  ، بالرغم من ان منظمه الصحة العالمية وحتى مصدري الطب الحديث على استحياء من تغير توجيه توجهاتهم للاعتماد على اساليب اطاله العمر خاصة أن مجمل العالم مازال فقير، فكثير من دول العالم  لم تحصل على اساسيات الحياه مثل المنازل الحديثة او الصرف الصحي او الماء الصالح للشرب او حتى الاطباء او الدواء الا انه من اهم مؤشرات سعادة الدول المتقدمة هو طول العمر بالإضافة الى الدعم الاجتماعي وقله الفساد والناتج الاجمالي والمحلي للفرد وهو ما يتسابق عليه الدول المتقدمة ، وهذا لا يعني ان اطاله العمر تحتاج ان تكون ثريا بالضرورة فنجد  كثيرا من المعمرين هم المتوسطين الدخل ولكن تسخير المال من اجل صحه افضل هو من الممكن والمناسب جدا ، وان توصلنا اليوم لحلول لاطاله العمر سنفكر لاحقا لحلول للخلود وان لم نبدأ لم نصل ، وبالفعل تجد ان الصين واليابان وكوريا وسنغافورة وامريكا الشمالية واستراليا واوروبا بفعل تقاليدهم الغذائية والصحية القديمة او الحديثة قد حققوا نتائج في اطاله العمر والصحة ، حتى ان بعض الشعوب العربية ذات الحضارة قد اكتسبت بعض العادات الغذائية و الأطباق و الوصفات الشعبية  ، فمثلاً الاكثار من استهلاك زيت الزيتون والحامض والبقوليات دون غيرها من الشعوب هو دليل على التقدم الفكري والوعي الصحي، فطرق الطهي و اعداد الطعام التاريخية و التراثية  التي لم تأتي من المختبرات او مراكز بحثيه هو دليل على الوعي و التقدم ، و على الرغم من التقدم العلمي الذي وصل لمرحله زراعه و تخليق  الخلايا الجذعية وغير الجذعية  والخرائط الجينية  و الطب الدقيق و الشخصي ، إلا انه مازال نوع الغذاء و كمه  من اهم العوامل التي تحدد صحته وطول العمر ،  لذا ان الدقة في انتقاء  نوع الغذاء من  رفوف المتاجر افضل من الدقة في انتقاء نوع الدواء من ارفف الصيدليات ، فعمل على طلب الاطلاق الصحية من نادل المطعم بدل من طلب الدواء من الطبيب ،  واتبع تعليمات مدرب اللياقة البدنية بدل من اتباع تعليمات الطبيب ، فليست المشفى بفندق وليس الدواء طعاما  فالرعاية الصحية لا تحرز سوى 10% من المحافظة على الصحة او اطاله العمر و 50 % تحدده عوامل جينية و 40 % تحدده عوامل اجتماعيه ،  لذا من المهم الانتباه للعوامل الاجتماعية وهي خبرات الطفولة المبكرة ،  التعليم ،  بيئة العمل ، دعم الشيخوخة ، موارد المجتمع مثل الطعام الصحي و  وسائل النقل و  ضمان السكن و وسائل الترفيه و الحماية البيئية و الوقاية من العنف و العدالة .

 كنت أظن عندما دخلت كليه الطب  ان للطب دور اكبر ولكن الان اصبحت واعتقد ان الطب يجب ان يتطور كما حدث من تطور في العلوم الصناعية ، لذ  ابحث عن ما هو غير معلوم وغير متوقع وابدأ باكرا خاصه في مجال اطاله العمر فإيجاد طريقه لاطاله العمر اسهل بكثير من ايجاد دواء لعلاج مرض خبيث او صعب ، و أعلم أن حقيقة الارتفاع الطفيف في متوسط العمر لدى بعض الشعوب لا يرجع لإنشاء مئات المستشفيات والاطباء والصيدليات بالمقام الاول ولكن لتوفر الماء النظيف والمنازل الحديثة و وسائل الترفيه وسائل التدفئة والتبريد والظل والصرف الصحي اكثر مما كان سابقا هي العوامل التي تزيد متوسط العمر ، ويشير الكثير من خبراء اطاله العمر انه لو تم التوجه لتبني سياسات اطالة العمر داخل المنظومة الصحية فسيقل الإنفاق و يقل او يتأخر ظهور الأمراض  ،  و بعض الافراد يؤمن بان تناول تفاحة  يوميا قد يجنبه زياره الطبيب والبعض يؤمن بان  شرب الماء مع الليمون صباحا كعادة يوميا ايضا قد يجنبه زياره الطبيب والكثير و الكثير من النصائح الطبية المتداولة ستجدها على التلفاز أو مواقع البحث و هي فعالة في بعض  الاحيان  ، ان اكثر المتعلمين تعلماً  جيدا يعلم كيف العناية بحديقة المنزل ثم تناول طعامه من حديقة المنزل ثم اصبح بصحه جيده  ستجد الكثير من القنوات على مواقع اليوتيوب تعلمك الزراعة المنزلية ولعلها وسيله جيده للترفيه وايضا للصحة وتوفير المال ،  واحرص دائما على ان تكون السلع الغذائية الأساسية هي سلع غذائية مفيدة حتى وان كان الموروث او السائد لا يجذبك الى ذلك ، فاهم ما على الفرد هو تعلم الزراعة والرعي والطهو  وهذا ما غاب عن المجتمعات التي تسعى ان تكون حديثه شكلاً ولكن هي بالمضمون تتجه للوراء ان لم تكن على وعي بضرورة المحافظة على سبل العيش وتطويرها ،  فكما ان المجتمعات الحديثة قد اكتسبت سبل الراحة فعليها ان تتأكد من ان هذه السبل لن تتعارض مع سبل الصحة فالبعض ينتعش عند شرب الكوكا صباحا ومساء والبعض ينتعش عند شرب عصير الليمون صباحا ومساء والبعض فقد لياقته  البدنية بسبب وسائل النقل والبعض بقي نشيطا وهو يذهب للحقل او صيد السمك .

السر الأول

 لا ينبغي ان يكثر الفرد من تناول الفاكهة الحلوة ان لم نقل السكر ولا ينبغي له ان يهمل جذع الشجرة وجذورها  فلعل لب النخيل أو جذور نبته الجنسينج او نوى التمر قد امتصت وتركز بها خيرات التربة من معادن واملاح اكثر مما هو في الثمرة ، وكثير من خبراء التغذية ينصح بتناول قشور الفاكهة او البذور كبذر اليقطين ان لم تتلوث بمبيد او سماد ، كذلك لا ينبغي ان تنفر من ماء البئر او جدول المياه وتفضل مياه التحلية ان بعض المعادن المهمة للجسم كالليثيوم  و السليكا واليورانيوم والملوبيديوم و غيره يكون تركيزها اكثر بالتربة مما هو عليه في الطعام ،  كذلك الحيوان في الغاب يشرب من مياه البركة  العكرة بالطين فيعمر ويعيش اطول من ان يكون في حديقة الحيوان ، كذلك بعض الأطعمة تحتوي على نسبه اشعاع منخفضه مثل الجوز البرازيلي ، الفاصوليا ،  الموز ،  الجزر، البطاطا ، القهوة البنجر،  الشوكولا وايضا الطحالب البحرية ذات تركيز من ليثيوم البحر،  وكلما كانت التربة الزراعية اكثر احتواء على المعادن كلما كانت ثمار الاشجار اكثر فائدة واكثر عمرا  وقديما تداول البشر  بالطين والرماد كطين خاوه ولا يزال الكاولين يستخدم في مكونات الدواء والطين الطبي الالمانيhellerde luvos يستعمل كمكمل غذائي ، ان الردم بالرمال او التلطخ بالطين واندماج الطين والرمال مع اشعه الشمس او الحرارة سيولد اشعاعا وطاقه مفيدة لترميم الخلايا ، كذلك تؤثر حجاره البناء على صحه الانسان فأصحاب المنازل الحجرية غالبا سيعمرون وسيتمتعون بعافيه اكثر من اصحاب المنازل الإسمنتية ، ويرجع ذلك لان تعامد اشعه الشمس مع الاحجار سيولد طاقة اشعاعية طفية داخل البناء وهي ذات اهميه لتوليد خلايا قوية ، ولعل غاية بناء الاهرام بذلك الحجم الكبير والغرف المعتمة كان غايته اطاله العمر بحجب الاشعاع الضار وتوليد اشعاع من التراب والاحجار موجهه داخل غرف الاهرامات ، ان الجيل الذي عاصر ظهور الكهرباء والموبايل كان اكثر حيوية وجنونا ، ولعل هذا يستدعي ان علينا البحث لتسخير الكهرباء اكثر مما نتوقع من الكيمياء لتنشيط الجسم واطاله العمر ، ظهرت بعض التقنيات مثل العلاج بالأشعة الحمراء red light therapy  أيضا العلاج بالمجال الكهرومغناطيسي pulsed electromagnetic  field therapy PEMF

1.       الزنجليل

2.       الليمون

3.       الخرشوف

4.       مادة الكولين

5.       الكركم

6.       الطرخون

7.       مادة بيتين

8.       الشمندر الأخضر

9.       حليب الشوك

10.    الأحماض الصفراوية مثلTUDCA

السر الرابع

جلطات الشعيرات الدموية بخلايا الدم الملطخة بالسكر و الكولسترول الدبق ما سيؤدي إلى اندثارها ، إن حالة القلب و ضغط الدم تتأثر غالباً بقدر ما يستطيع تصريفه من الدم من خلال الشعيرات الدموية الدقيقة عند الالتقاء الشرياني الوريدي التي تتخلل الأنسجة و الأعضاء ، فكلما كان العضو ذا مرونة و نفاذية و أقل التهاب و تليف كلما كان انغماس الشعيرات الدموية أسهل و أكثر ، يحتوي جسد الإنسان على مليار شعيرة دموية و تقل و تندثر مع التقدم بالعمر ، و قد يعود تفسير ذلك لعملية تسمى الغلوزة glycation   وهي عبارة عن التصاق السكر الدبق بالبروتين ما ينتج عنه تكتلات و خثرات صعبة التحلل و الاستحلاب داخل شعيرات الجسم ، و قد يحتاج القلب لزيادة ضغط التدفق لتعويض هذا الانسداد الجزئي أو من خلال توليد أوعية و شعيرات angiogenenesis  حال توافر عوامل نمو ، و يعود تفسير أن الفائدة من استخدام NAD  أو  NMN أنها تعمل على تعزيز عملية تولد الأوعية angiogenesis  ما يساهم بالحفاظ على العضلات و الأعضاء بحالة تروية جيدة وايضا  ضمان عدم التصاق الألياف العضلية بالأخص ما سيوفر كميات متوازنة جيدة من اليوريا التي بدورها ستساهم بالحفاظ على بروتينات الجسم دون تمسخmisfolding  protein

السر الخامس

إن التعود على مقدار منخفض من الاكسجين الجوي كالعيش في المرتفعات سيجعل الجسم الميتوكونديريا قادره على تعويض هذا النقص من الاكسجين ،  قد يستخدم بعض الخبراء اللياقة البدنية مقياس سعة الاكسجين القصوى v o2 max ومحاوله العمل على تحسين هذه القيمة ، ولكن يوجد أيضا من يستخدم العلاج بضغط الاوكسجين المنخفض والتناوب مع المرتفع  hyperbaric oxygen therap ،او التناوب بالعيش فترات في اماكن مرتفعة قليلة الاكسجين واخرى منخفضه عالية الاكسجين ، وتبقى ممارسه التدريبات المتواترة عالية الكثافة 

High intensity interval training

من خلال الدراجة الثابتة بحيث تكون هناك فترات متناوبه من ثلاث الى خمس دقائق يصل بها ل 95 الى 90% من الحد الاعلى لمعدل ضربات القلب عند ممارسه الرياضة بناء على العمر HR max  ,ويمكن حساب المعدل الاقصى لضربات القلب من خلال معادله حسابيه

208-(0.57× age)= HR max

 و كلما استطعت من دقائق أثناء التمرين البقاء على معدل ٩٠ بالمئة من معدل ضربات القلب القصوى HR MAX كلما تحسنت قدرة الميتوكونديريا على انتاج الطاقة و تحسنت الدورة الدموية بشكل عام .

السر السادس

براز بكتيريا الامعاء والكانديدا  هو الغذاء المناسب ،  على الرغم من توافر اصناف الطعام الشهية وذات المذاق الجيد الا انه البنيه التراكمية لمواد هذا الطعام قد تضر الجسم،  فكما انها ستفسد  خارج الجسم كذلك هي ستفسد ويتغير تشكيلها البنيوي داخل الجسم لذى كل ما كانت  ذات صلاحية خارج الجسم كلما كانت ذات صلاحية داخل الجسم ، خاصه المواد البروتينية منها فمثلا تستطيع الاحتفاظ بالعدس خارج الثلاجة لفترة طويله لكن قطعه اللحم او الحليب سريعا ما سيفسد ويتلف خارج الثلاجة ، لذ نجد ان المطبخ الاسيوي بقصد او بدون قصد اعتمد على الأغذية المخمرة والبعض على المقدد على الرغم من رائحتها غير المستساغة ،الا انه عندما تتناول طعام فاسد  خارج الجسم ستضمن انه لن يفسد داخل الجسم و يغير من تركيبته البنيوية ، وكثير من الطعام عندما يصل للأمعاء سيحدث له كما حدث في عملية التخمر الذي سيستخدمه المطبخ شرق اسيوي بشكل اكثر واكثر عفونة خاصة لمن يعتد على طعام به النشا و الألياف بكميات قليلة التي هي غذاء لبكتيريا الأمعاء ،بالتاكيد هناك بعض انواع البكتيريا طغى اثاره النافع مثل اللاكتوباسيلس على أثرها الضار ، هذه البكتيريا النافعة بالأمعاء بمثابه مزرعة اسماك صناعية يجب الحرص على نوع طعامها و محيطها لتتكاثر ، وايضا هي بمثابة  جهاز هضم احتياطي ثانوي ستقوم  بالعمل على جعل مركبات الطعام بسيطة وبصوره نهائية لا فساد او تعفن بعدها .

السر السابع

 الحجامة والفصد ، في حين ان عمليه التئام الجروح هي افضل مثال على قدره الشفاء الذاتي ، كذلك وجد ان عمليه التئام الجروح والاصابات تتطلب اطلاق ذاتي لبيلتيدات peptides  وعوامل النموgrowth factors  للشفاء ، ففي حين انه تم استعمال   peptide BPC157 كمساعد لعامل النموVEGFR2 و مساعد لعمليه التئام الجروح وزياده سماكه الامعاء ، الا انه وجد ان الحجامة المنتظمة كذلك ستساعد بإطلاق بيبتيدات النمو وقد تكون اكثر امانا حين لا يخشى منها كمسبب لنمو سرطاني ، وكذلك الحجامة ستزيد من كريات الدم البلعمية ومستويات متوازنة من الهستامين ويؤكد البعض فوائد التبرع بالدم بشكل دوري ، وكان الفصد طريقه علاجيه منذ الأزل  ولعله يعمل على تنشيط نخاع العظم للاستمرار ونشاط صنع خلايا جذعية

السر الثامن

 افضل طريقه مراقبه التقدم بالعمر هي ما تراه لا ما تعطي نتائجه المختبرات ، فبالرغم من ان كثيرا من المختبرات اصبحت تعمل على تحديد العمر البيولوجي من خلال قياس DNA methylation test

الا انه ليس بذا مقياس للشيخوخة تحديداٌ، قد يكون شكل البراز ولونه او قدره تركيز النظر نحو الاشياء القريبة او مستوى السكر والدهون بالدم او اختبار AGE readerاو مقدار الكتلة العضلية اكثر دقه لتحديد درجه الشيخوخة

د.عبدالعزيز عبدالغني الفتيح

كيف نصل لاكسير الحياة ؟

 اذا انه لم يرصد حتى الان أحد من الذين تجاوزوا المئة عام انه استعمل اي مكمل غذائي او فيتامين لإطالة العمر ، فكيف نستطيع ان نجزم من ان NMN او Rapamycin او Metformin و غيرها هي وسائل لإطالة العمر ، وعلى الرغم من التجارب التي اجريت على الفئران واستخدم بها مادة NMN  واثبت انها تطيل العمر بمقدار لا يتجاوز عشرة بالمئة بإطالة العمر ، وهذه كانت من انجح التجارب حول هذا المجال خاصه ان الفئران هي من الثدييات الا ان الفئران لا تتشابه مع الانسان تماماً،  لذا انه من المبكر جداٌ الجزم بان دواء او ماده قد تطيل العمر ، وهذا ما سيتجلى ويصبح واضحاً بالخمسين أو الثلاثين سنه القادمة ، اذا ما زالت الحياة على كوكب الارض ،  ولو حدث واثبت ان هناك مادة تطير لعمر الانسان فان الدول والمنظمات الصحية ستصبح مجبرة على توفير هذه الطريقة بأرخص الاثمان فقد نرى يوما ما ان سعر  NMN اصبح ارخص من سعر الاسبرين أو أنه يصرف مع التأمين الصحي ،  ولكن هل هذا ما يتوقع ام ان الاحتكار و ابقاء اكسير الحياه مستقبلا سيبقى لمن يملك ثمنه الباهض ، وهل ستستفيد الدول الفقيرة من ابحاث طب اطاله العمر ؟ ام انه يكفي لهم توفير الدواء للأمراض الشائعة ، وحتى هذه اللحظة لمن نشاهد مظاهرات في الدول الفقيرة تطالب بتوفير الفيتامينات والمكملات الغذائية المتعلقة بإطالة العمر ، بالطبع انه من الباكر الحديث عن ذلك ، ولكن ما يثير الشكوك هو الاسعار الباهظة ل NMNو Rapamycin و SARMS  و peptidesوتفاوت اسعار المكملات الغذائية ، فبعض المكملات الغذائية اسعارها رخيصة وبعضها اسعارها باهظة  ، ما الذي يحدد ذلك ؟ وهل ينبغي ان يكون هناك عدالة في الاسعار وتوزيع المكملات الغذائية على الاسواق العالمية ؟ وهل ينبغي ان يساعد المبتكرين مصانع الدواء بالسماح لها بتوفير المكملات الغذائية بأسعار زهيدة ؟ ام ان هناك تنافس على الارباح وحصد الميداليات الاولمبية ‼ من وجهة نظري انه وان اردنا الوصول لاكسير الحياة فعلينا ان نزيد عدد المستخدمين المشاركين بالابحاث وكيفيتها لتعطي نتائج دقيقة بالجزم من فائده المكمل الغذائي من عدمه في اطاله العمر

  اذا سنحصل على اكسير الحياه عندما يصل و يصبح بمتناول الجميع .

Aging is a medical target in ICD-11 with 2 codes

Ageing in ICD-11 2 2022An update on the recognition of aging as a treatable medical condition in the ICD:

In the current International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) system, for the code MG2A, the original main designation “Old age” is now fully replaced with the new one: “Aging-associated decline in intrinsic capacity” in the “General Symptoms” category (the change is now also seen in the main ICD website)!

https://icd.who.int/browse11/l-m/en#/http://id.who.int/icd/entity/835503193 

The new designation is even better for designing measurable interventions into aging than the previous ill-defined “Old age”. 

Moreover, there are about 14 “matching terms” for this MG2A Code, including “frailty of old age”, “old age atrophy”, “old age exhaustion”, “old age debility” and also “ageing” itself! All these terms allow the direct targeting of aging as a medical condition or as a set of general medical symptoms! 

https://icd.who.int/ct11/icd11_mms/en/release (search “ageing”) 

Moreover, there is a second code in the ICD-11, the XT9T extension code “Ageing-related” in the “Causality” or “Aetiology” category which also permits targeting aging as a medical indication, namely as an underlying cause or risk factor of diseases.

https://icd.who.int/browse11/l-m/en#/http://id.who.int/icd/entity/459275392 

Thus, with both codes, Aging can be now directly targeted by biomedical interventions in accordance with the present International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11). 

The contribution of longevity research advocates to this inclusion of aging into the ICD-11 as a treatable medical condition has been crucial. 

Now the task is in the hands of medical researchers and practitioners to leverage those ICD codes to design and test interventions directly into aging, including the development of evaluation criteria for the efficacy and safety of such interventions, for the benefit of older persons, prevention of aging-related diseases and extension of healthy longevity!

Support Mechnikov Fund in Ukraine

Mechnikov Museum 1

Update (July 1, 2022): Presently, the collection of donations is suspended, due to the difficulties of transfer into a Ukrainian branch of a Russian bank. Further details concerning the support of the Metchnikoff educational fund will be forthcoming. Obviously, the education about Metchnikoff’s legacy will be relevant long time after any temporary troubles are over.

14 March 2022

Below is a request of support for the “International fund of memory І.І. Mechnikov” located in Slobozhanshina (Kharkov District, Ukraine, Mechnikov’s birthplace) that works to maintain and popularize the cultural and scientific legacy of the Nobel Laureate in Medicine, the founder of gerontology and cell immunology Ilja Mechnikov and promotes scientific education in Ukraine (in biology, ecology, history etc.) via the Mechnikov Museum that they maintain in Dvorichna, Kharkov District, field research, young talent competitions, lectures, conferences and round tables, book publications, etc. (and now also help for the local population in need) http://mechnikov.dvorichna-vo.gov.ua/

Metchnikov fund Eng“Dear scientists, workers of culture and art and all the indifferent people!

The organizing committee of Charitable organization “International fund of memory І.І. Mechnikov” and compatriots of outstanding scientist and Nobel Prize Winner from Slobozhanshina (Kharkov District, Ukraine) apply to you for help.

The aim of the fund was to perpetuate the memory of our outstanding compatriot Ilja Mechnikov, who initiated the fight for health and long life of the mankind. Now we live in the hard time of devastation, horror, lack of medicine and food products. The humanitarian catastrophe is nearing. Now its the hard time for us to help the Ukrainian people, especially women, children and aged people to overcome the terrors of war. We are ready to organize through volunteers the help for all who need it.

ILA yearly report 2021

TActivism - 12 - 31 December 2012 ILAhe International Longevity Alliance (ILA) presents its yearly report for 2021.

In 2021, ILA continued to advance its mission of promoting “healthy longevity for all through scientific research”. Conducting promotional activities was not easy in this period. Yet, in 2021, ILA remained active.

In 2021, ILA increased its federated membership to 33 registered non-profit associations from 26 countries as federated members.

http://www.longevityforall.org/groups/

Most recently, 3 associations from Canada joined: Canadian Longevity Association (CLA), Lifespan Society of British Columbia, and Vitality Healthspan Foundation.

http://www.longevityforall.org/groups/

In 2021, the ILA organized and co-organized and/or was strongly represented in a dozen online longevity conferences, especially during October, “the Longevity Month”, organized by core ILA members in several countries, with international participation, including: Slovenia, Belgium, Nigeria, Bulgaria, Brazil, Malaysia, US, Spain, India, Russia, Israel.

https://longevityalliance.org/organization/1/post/25

Furthermore, ILA continued its scientific activities as well as activities for the promotion of science.

https://longevityalliance.org/organization/1/post/24

Analytical summaries have been published, such as

“Anti-aging treatments against COVID!?”

https://longevityalliance.org/organization/1/post/26

Moreover, the ILA launched a worldwide and unlimited collaboration, based on open data, to collectively see how to improve health worldwide. The initiative is entitled OpenData4Health, and welcomes any volunteer and any institution to join the project! The initiator is an ILA board member Dr. Edouard Debonneuil. Instructions are at:

http://OpenData4Health.org

https://longevityalliance.org/organization/1/post/27

The results of ILA-initiated studies of potential geroprotective therapies in mice have been reported in the scientific literature. Thus, a recent study explored the effect of the potential geroprotective drug C60: Dmytro Shytikov, Iryna Shytikova, Deepak Rohila, Anton Kulaga, Tatiana Dubiley, and Iryna Pishel. Effect of Long-Term Treatment with C60 Fullerenes on the Lifespan and Health Status of CBA/Ca Mice. Rejuvenation Research, 24(5), 345-353, 2021. https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/10.1089/rej.2020.2403

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/i-am-a-little-mouse-and-i-want-to-live-longer#/

An additional research study on the use of senolytic drugs for healthy longevity in mice, co-organized by ILA and Leipzig university, under the direction of Dr. Alexandra Stolzing, is now in the final stages of preparation.

https://web.archive.org/web/20201026153126/http://longevityalliance.org/?q=mmtpsenolytics-second-dosing-september

In 2021, ILA together with HEALES, co-sponsored additional mouse lifespan trials, at the initiative and by the support of an ILA board member Didier Coeurnelle https://www.theworldhour.com/heales-co-chair-didier-coeurnelle-donates-50000-for-life-extension-research/

As well as the Longevity Hackathon https://longhack.org/

A strong focus of ILA scientific activities has been on developing clinical evaluation criteria for aging and aging-related diseases.

For example, ILA experts, an ILA board member Dr. Ilia Stambler and an ILA scientific advisor Dr. Alexey Moskalev, initiated, under ILA affiliation, a special research topic on clinical evaluation criteria of aging and aging-related diseases, in the scientific journal Frontiers in Genetics: Genetics of Aging. 9 scientific articles have been published in this research topic by internationally acclaimed scientists, as well as an e-book, and summary by the ILA expert editors.

https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fgene.2021.764874/full

ICD AgeingAnd perhaps most importantly, in a large measure thanks to the years-long advocacy of ILA members, especially an ILA board member Dr. Daria Khaltourina, since January 1st, 2022, “aging” is officially included in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) under 2 categories: “symptoms” and “causality”.

Please read about this inclusion in the article by the ILA board members Daria Khaltourina and Ilia Stambler, published in The Lancet Healthy Longevity, entitled “Advanced pathological ageing should be represented in the ICD”

(free and open access)

As well as this explanation https://www.longevityforall.org/advanced-pathological-ageing-should-be-represented-in-the-icd-lancet-healthy-longevity-january-2022/

This is the kind of achievement that ILA was created and existed for! And it gives encouragement for more activities and achievements in the future!

ILA meetingThe ILA continues its operation. On January 29, 2022, the annual ILA general assembly took place, and confirmed 8 ILA board members, representing 8 of the ILA federated members. 5 federated members will serve a new two year term in the board: Maria Entraigues Abramson – SENS Research Foundation (US); Walter H. Crompton – American Longevity Alliance (US); Didier Coeurnelle – AFT Technoprog (France); Alexander Tietz-Latza – HEALES (EU); Martin Lipovšek – Society for Vital Life Extension (Slovenia). There will remain 3 federated members to serve for another year of their 2 years term: Daria Khaltourina – Council for Public Health and Problems of Demography (Russia); Edouard Debonneuil – Longevite & Sante (France); Ilia Stambler – Israeli Longevity Alliance (Israel). https://www.facebook.com/InternationalLongevityAlliance/posts/4626370860822524

Looking forward to a new productive year for the ILA!

20 Years of Longevity Activism

Making a little personal celebration: 20 years of involvement in longevity or life extension activism. 10 years ago, by January 2012, I completed my PhD thesis on the “History of Life-extensionism” and co-organized our first demonstration for life extension (on January 20, 2012) and since then became fully involved in longevity or life extension activism. And 10 years before that, around January 2002, after completing the MA, I started to work as a science writer in biotechnology and co-created our first multi-lingual site on life extension, and so became partly involved in longevity (life extension) activism. In these 20 years, one could see the massive shift of public attitude in favor of the possibility and desirability of healthy life extension, hopefully at least in some small measure also thanks to our activism. But still there is a lot of work to be done to bring this possibility and awareness closer to real implementation, to the actual achievement of aging amelioration and healthy life extension (and not a lot of time to do it…). Below are some highlights, summaries, references and pictures from those years.

Advanced pathological ageing should be represented in the ICD, Lancet Healthy Longevity, January 2022

ICD for PostHappy and proud to see our correspondence article published in “Lancet Healthy Longevity”, entitled “Advanced pathological ageing should be represented in the ICD

By Ilia Stambler, Aleksey Alekseev, Yuri Matveyev, and Daria Khaltourina

(free and open access)

https://doi.org/10.1016/S2666-7568(21)00305-6

And happy to join forces with another correspondence article, in the same issue of “Lancet Healthy Longevity”, with the same title, by Evelyne Bischof, Andrea B Maier, Kai-Fu Lee, Alex Zhavoronkov, and David Sinclair.

https://doi.org/10.1016/S2666-7568(21)00303-2

These articles appeared in response to a campaign raised by some gerontologists to remove the designation “Old age” from the new version of the International Classification of Diseases – ICD-11 (the code “Old Age” MG2A), as they claimed this designation would sound discriminatory against older people simply because of their age (“ageist”).

This campaign is exemplified by the article of Debanjan Banerjee et al. “Not a disease: a global call for action urging revision of the ICD-11 classification of old age” in “Lancet Healthy Longevity” to which we respond

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanhl/article/PIIS2666-7568(21)00201-4/fulltext

As well as others

https://www.paho.org/journal/en/articles/old-age-and-new-icd-11-position-latin-american-academy-medicine-older-persons

https://www.ageing.ox.ac.uk/blog/ICD-11-and-an-argument-about-old%20age%20

https://www1.folha.uol.com.br/folha-100-anos/2020/08/queremos-morrer-velhos-mas-nao-de-velhice.shtml

https://www.portaldoenvelhecimento.com.br/a-velhice-e-uma-doenca/

There was perceived the danger that, because of this campaign, this entire category code would be removed, and thus aging would no longer be recognized as a contributor to disease or a part of age-related pathogenesis, which would have detrimental outcomes for the research, development and therapy specifically designed to address and prevent aging-related ill health. Thus the removal of this code could in practice damage the health of older people that the campaign wished to protect from ageist labels.

So our articles were intended to defend the remaining of this code, in order to draw attention and resources for research, development and treatment specifically to address and improve aging-related ill health.

And indeed, due to the campaign, an ICD revision was introduced concerning this code (made public after our articles were accepted).

https://icd.who.int/dev11/l-m/en#/http://id.who.int/icd/entity/835503193

Yet the result turned out to be even better for the purposes of supporting healthy longevity R&D and treatment, than the earlier version. It would not remove the code entirely, but just rename the main term from “Old age” to “Ageing associated decline in intrinsic capacity”. Indeed, the term “old age” was rather scientifically ambiguous, while the new main term encourages practical projects to define, measure and improve the “intrinsic capacity” of older persons (which is currently not well defined or widely adopted). At the same time, all the code synonyms that would help address aging as a medical condition remained, including over 40 “index terms” altogether, such as ‘Ageing’, ‘Senescence’, ‘Senile state’, ‘Frailty’, and ‘Senile dysfunction’, that we also mention in our article and whose practical utilization we support.

https://icd.who.int/dev11/l-m/en#/http://id.who.int/icd/entity/835503193

Ageing in ICD11At the same time it should be noted that the new revision (“Ageing associated decline in intrinsic capacity”) is set in motion, but the official released version of ICD-11(that came into effect on January 1, 2022) still mentions “Old age”.

https://icd.who.int/browse11/l-m/en#/http%3a%2f%2fid.who.int%2ficd%2fentity%2f835503193

https://icd.who.int/ct11/icd11_mms/en/release (search “ageing”)

But those semantic distinctions may not be crucial, as in either case, with the main stated significance of this code being the “general symptoms” of ageing, the attention would be drawn to addressing aging pathology and improving aging-related ill health, the need for which we also argue in our article. Notice additionally that neither version directly refers to aging as a “disease”, but refers to “general symptoms” (similar to the “general symptoms” of “cachexia”, fatigue”, “shock”, “sleep disturbance” etc. that are also in the ICD). This designation as “general symptoms” may help address aging as a medical condition generally. This is in addition to the “XT9T Ageing-related” ICD-11 code in the “Etiology” or “Causality” category.

https://icd.who.int/browse11/l-m/en#/http://id.who.int/icd/entity/459275392

Thus the main message and fact remain:

AGING IS NOW IN THE ICD AND CAN BE OFFICIALLY ADDRESSED AS A MEDICAL CONDITION!!! And this can help address and improve aging health!

It should also be noted that mere semantics will not be effectual for the good or bad of aging health. In order to practically implement the ICD aging categories, it will be necessary to develop and implement evidence-based metrics and clinical evaluation criteria for aging, not just to predict the trajectory of aging health but also necessary to test the effects of geroprotective or healthspan improving interventions, as we also argue elsewhere.

http://www.aginganddisease.org/EN/10.14336/AD.2017.0130

Hopefully our joint work, with the other co-authors and partners, will further stimulate this discussion and research. It was a great honor to be a part of this stellar team!

(Just to note, the views expressed in this post are my personal views, following our article publication and the public introduction of the new main term “intrinsic capacity” after our article was accepted). These are not necessarily the views of the other co-authors and partners. For our joint views, please see the articles themselves. Thanks for your consideration! Ilia Stambler)

Cryonics according to Halakha

קריוניקה בהלכה
מאת הרב אור שרגא
נשאלתי על ידי כמה אנשים מה דעת ההלכה היהודית כלפי שימור קריוני.
אומנם התחלתי לכתוב על קריוניקה אבל על הדרך כבר דנתי לכלל דיני קבורה ושאר עניינים.
[המסקנה שלי לגבי דין קבורה בכללי: שיש לבטל את צורת הקבורה הקיימת כיום שהיא בעייתית ולעבור לכתחילה לקבורת כוכים שהייתה נהוגה וכמו שבנו מעין זה בירושליים לאחרונה. ולגבי קריוניקה: אדם שיבקש לעשות כן זה כן תחשב לו כקבורה ויש לעשות כן]
1. כאן שאלה ששאל ד”ר איליה סטמבלר בנושא כבר בשנת 2012
2. הערך קריוניקה בויקפדיה העברית
3. סרטון הדמיה לתהליך הקריוני ששמתי לו כתוביות בעברית
