 Life expectancy has slowed since the 1930s. No generation is projected to reach 100 years on average. A recent study co-authored by a University of Wisconsin-Madison professor shows that the rapid improvements in life expectancy achieved by high-income countries during the first half of the 20th century have slowed considerably. The research concludes that, on […]

 Researchers at the University of Basel in Switzerland have discovered that certain nutrients in food can cause a mild stress reaction in nematodes. Surprisingly, rather than harming the organisms, this slight stress appears to boost their overall health and help them maintain vitality as they grow older. People today are living longer than ever before, […]
