Top Secret Meeting of Medical Minds Seeks To Crack the Immortality Code

Gang, I thought you should see this. It updates you on the research with TA-65, the anti-aging compound I am taking and what it means. It was released to the press and has been number one searched on google under recent press releases for TA-65.

Fleetwood, PA (PRWEB) May 29, 2009 --

“Top Secret Meeting of Medical Minds Seeks To Crack the Immortality Code”

Dr. Dave Woynarowski MD is a guinea pig. He is a member of an elite group of top medical minds on a supplement that is thought to be able to prolong human life by lengthening a part of the genetic code known as the telomere.

“I was a perfect specimen for them!” says Doctor Dave. “They were looking for people who were objective enough to give honest feedback on the results of taking an extremely rare all natural supplement known as TA-65.”

Like many in the group Dr. Dave is an MD and specializes in anti-aging medicine. Unlike anyone else in the group, however, Dr. Dave designs his own supplement line and is also an ultra marathoner and fitness fanatic.

“They loved me because of my unique combination of specialties. I knew supplements inside and out since I design them personally and don’t private label them at all like so many others.

The athletic side of my life really puts a huge stress on my body so everyone was anxious to see how the TA-65 would help me. I have an upcoming race that I am doing for charity called the Canadian Death Race. It is 77 miles through the Canadian Rockies and anything can happen so I need to be in tip top condition.”

Dr. Dave was so enthused about taking TA-65 that he got on it before the most recent round of scientific evidence was released.

“I had already seen enough to be convinced it was absolutely safe but the big thing was what it would do for me. I was hearing all kinds of great stories about running faster, lifting more, accelerated fat loss, looking and feeling better and better, increased sex drive, firmer younger looking skin and eyesight and so on that I decided to get on it as soon as I could.”

Here is the great news for people who share Dr. Dave’s enthusiasm.

Now it is no longer experimental, it is here right now and the first people to move on this will be among the lucky few to join the ranks of what Dr. Dave calls the “newly immortal.”

How does it work?

“Our cells rely on our genetic material, called DNA, to reproduce. There is a very small end cap of DNA known as the telomere, which seems to dictate the number of times a cell can reproduce before it dies. Each time the cell reproduces, the telomere shortens so the telomere effectively acts as a ‘ticking time bomb’ that dictates the length of life in that cell and ultimately in that person,” Dr. Dave says.

Scientists from around the globe have been working on finding something to lengthen or at least stop the shortening of the telomeres so we might stop cellular aging and thus lengthen life, maybe even to the point of immortality.

Until the advent of TA-65 nothing safe and effective had been found.

TA-65 is derived from the all natural Astragalus plant. One tiny portion of the many active compounds in this plant seems to safely do what no other commercially available compound has ever done before; lengthen the telomere.

Additionally it appears to have true ‘adaptogenic’ properties. “It apparently lengthens the shortest telomeres, the ones that are getting close to the end of their rope so to speak, but it seems to leave the normal ones alone,” says Dr. Dave.

When asked about playing God, Dr. Dave responds with a laugh.

“Don’t worry, that is the farthest thing from anyone’s mind here! There are many ways to die besides just getting old! We are trying to keep people as healthy as possible for as long as possible and there is no question this is another huge step in that direction. But you can still drink and smoke yourself to death or get hit by a bus, so there are no guarantees with TA-65. All we know for sure is that it has some real benefits and the data are now available to confirm that it really does what we say it does!”

When asked about his own personal experiences Dr. Dave says, “In the relatively short time I have been on TA-65 I have noticed marked improvements in my physical abilities including strength and endurance. I have even less craving for junk food than before and I think this is really going to help me stay lean and strong!”

Others have noticed similar benefits as well.

Dr. Dave says, “I just got back from a top secret meeting of other doctors who are on TA- 65 and the leaders of T.A. Sciences, who own the rights to this all natural supplement.

Everyone in the room, which included Bill Andrews, one of the scientists who discovered the telomere, was on TA-65. I jokingly called us the ‘Telonauts’ because we are like the pioneers in space, discovering a whole new universe! We all have amazing stories of how TA-65 has made incredible and rapid differences in how we feel and how we perform.

The science is there already and I believe there will be much more of it but what really matters is how people feel and what they do with the time they have been given. I know in my heart of hearts TA-65 has made a huge difference in my life and I am getting everyone I love and care about it on TA-65 as soon as I can.”

What about the down side?

“Well, there are two main problems with TA-65. The first is that it is extremely scarce and there is no way that once this goes public the demand can be met. It takes 8 tons of raw material to make enough TA-65 for one person. That leads to the second problem in that it is quite expensive. I have mentioned the $16,000 a year price to people and they are astounded. Then they get into their Lexus and drive away. I wonder to myself, ‘What is your life worth!’” laughs Dr. Dave.

What do Dr. Dave and T.A. Sciences expect from the recent turn of events?

“Well the phones are ringing off the hook here, and the Wall Street Journal just did an article on TA-65 so I am sure T.A. Sciences is inundated as well. The real problem is that we are clearly going to have to turn people away since there is no way enough raw material can be made available and processed fast enough to meet the demand! I am doing my best to get my family and friends in and of course the people who call me first will get first dibs.”

What about using multivitamins and other supplements? For a long time we have thought that we might be able to do something similar with multi-vites, antioxidants, etc. It makes sense if you understand the free radical method of damaging DNA. There are actually studies that suggest this is the case but no one has the solid data that TA-65 does and no one can show that kind of selective telomere lengthening.

Bottom line: stay on your vitamins and supplements whether you are on or off TA-65; they do something good, just not nearly to the same degree. This again should answer the critics who say we are doing something we should not be messing with. If regular vitamins do but less, then even taking Vitamin C might be playing God!

‘Krill is three times better than fish oil’

You may have seen the above headline; I’ve seen it over and over again.

While I hate to even dignify this with my time, it appears that there is now enough money and desire for “something new” in the Omega 3 market that even krill oil, which up until recently had been completely ignored for years, has become a minor player in the Omega 3 marketplace.

Here is how it started.

Schiff Vitamin Company, a company with a big budget, released a krill-based supplement and made the claim it was 3x better than fish oil.

Here is what happened to them.

They were asked to modify or discontinue certain advertising and label claims for their Krill Oil dietary supplement, following an inquiry by the National Advertising Division (NAD) of the Council of Better Business Bureaus. The Council for Responsible Nutrition filed a challenge, which led to the NAD requesting proof and substantiation for certain claims related to heart health effects and efficacy compared to fish oil.

Please note this was heart health benefits only, not all the other benefits. But with a 3x better headline you think it means everything.

And what about those heart benefits?

Well the NAD determined the information did not provide a basis for making unqualified superiority claims for CRP* levels as the best marker for assessing heart health. As such, NAD recommended the company discontinue comparative health and dosage claims between its krill oil and fish oil, and modify claims related to krill oil’s impact on cholesterol levels.

In other words there was no basis for these claims and they needed to stop using them in their advertising.

Yet other people who are marketing Krill must not have gotten the message because occasionally my customers send me the very same false claim as a headline used by yet another health care professional who is selling it.

To those professionals all I can say is, “there is a price to pay for letting copywriters write your articles! And there is a price to pay in the trust of your readers who know better!”
I will not spend any more time addressing Krill and I will refer anyone who asks to this blog.

Just remember this: the success of any Omega 3 is based on the already proven success of fish oil. Without the years of trials and gradual grudging acceptance of fish oil as a necessary and valid dietary adjunct none of these other products would even be on the map.

Here is what I find very gratifying about the whole situation.

In the past year or so every medical conference I have attended has mentioned fish oil in a very positive light. Krill, Salba, Chia, lyprinol and even flax have not even been mentioned (of course because they are all so good and revolutionary, modern anti-aging medicine just hasn’t caught on yet, right!).

Seven years ago when Dr. Dave’s Best had only fish oil to sell I was told by my medical director that I needed psychiatric help for making, backing and taking a natural supplement and expecting and believing that it would do any good at all. My own former friends looked at me funny and shook their heads. Now they are all on fish oil!

My, how times have changed.

Doc


* Regarding CRP levels: CRP levels remain a valuable predictor of heart disease but as a SINGLE agent they are not considered useful yet by clinicians. While they are occasionally reported as an independent risk factor for heart disease, these terms can be deceiving even to doctors. Any independent risk factor is worth improving if it is high but it does not mean that fixing it will save you from a heart attack because there are many independent risk factors including: bodyweight, body fat, stress levels, other inflammatory/nutritional markers including blood sugar, TNF, IL-6, homocysteine levels, cholesterol good and bad EPA/DHA levels (fish oil levels in the blood cells), patient symptomatology and family history, smoking and so on and so forth.

Doctors and scientist continue to look for the “magic marker” for heart disease so they can make simple and easy decisions in a 5 minute office visit. The human body and human health continue to resist becoming an assembly line process!

Power and longevity

I am going to go out on a limb here and tell you that the stuff you are reading on exercise and longevity is only half true. So to begin we’ll briefly look at what is out there.

But before we do let me say this: I have come to terms with the fact that at this moment in my life I am a runner. I am now training for my second 125 km Canadian Death Race and most of what I do centers around long slow distance endurance training. The very kind of training I tell you NOT to focus on.

Let me explain.

I do not do this stuff for the “physical goodness” of it. I do it for the mental moving meditation, the ability to still do it while my body can still tolerate the abuse and yes, it is abusive.

And this year I am doing it for charity. My website theraceagainstdeath.org should be up in 4 to 6 weeks for those of you who want to get involved.

While I don’t think I am losing years of my life for doing this, I sure don’t expect to live any longer because of it. After all it is called the “Death Race” for a reason!

Now let’s look at what is printed in the lay and other exercise press. Run run run. Runners live longer, runners aren’t injured any more than non-runners -- maybe actually less -- and runners are healthier.

Now I haven’t examined this data all that closely but I suspect that the info comes from very long studies. Normally I would tell you that a 20 year study is very powerful. But if you keep only the people who are still running at the end of a twenty year period you have really selected out a ton of people and left only those genetically gifted for the sport who may indeed already have the genetics for longevity as well!.

And then there is the fact that most of these guys doing the research are distance runners and especially distance cyclists.

I would love to see some power guys get into research in the same fashion.

But you look at the other side of the fence and you’ll find some articles on longevity and power generation. Interestingly enough you’ll see an almost direct correlation of longevity to things like explosive or one-rep leg strength and grip strength as well.

Now if you combine the new information on higher intensity short distance training, including running, with the fact that this leads to power generation, you get two great benefits.

First is longevity.

Second is this kind of strength and power training will make you more accident proof.

And actually there is a third benefit! Fat loss since high intensity training done right is the best way to lose fat.

So from a guy who runs 80 mile races I am still telling you, “Do as I say, not as I do!”

Next year will be the 10th anniversary of the Canadian Death Race. I will be running it but this time in a relay. I plan on doing lots of power training and high intensity cycling for my cardio. By then it will be time to give these feet and legs a break.

One final observation for you athletes out there. You do not need to do only Olympic weight lifting for triple extension (which is one of the key movements to real power!).

Check out the 4th circuit on my Fabulous Fat Burning for Everyone DVD by JC Santana and Rhadi Fergusson. You’ll see real raw power as Rhadi prepares for the Judo nationals!

Dr. Dave on money

Before I give you “advice” on money let me tell you my qualifications.

I do not study money, I do not study finance and I know no more about money than the next person. Which, in the current situation makes me as qualified as anyone else who is out there.

Turn on any “news” channel and after the bevy of “reality news” featuring the latest tragedy that this economy has caused somewhere in some remote corner of the globe and you will see people known as pundits screaming at the top of their lungs about why their way is the way to correct the economy.

So everyone has an opinion and everyone knows everything. And you know what they say about opinions: they remind one of a certain body part because every one has one and they stink.

Sorry, I find that hard to believe that any of these so-called experts has any real value to add here except to upset people and glue them to the TV. So I took a different look at things. I looked at them through the eyes of "neuroeconomics” which is how the brain works “on money” as opposed to on drugs or alcohol (or food!).

Turns out that the brain reacts to money issues much the way people who are compulsive gamblers or crack head; addicts.

The other interesting things that were found were that people consistently overestimated the value of their investment and their ability to make good decisions about money.

It was very hard as well for people to divorce themselves from their emotions when it comes to money even though it is a relatively new invention in the grand scheme of humanity.

Even the lead author of the neuroeconomics text who was an editor for Money magazine admitted he lost over a quarter of million dollars in the market because “he knew better than the rest of the world”.

Money seems to represent love, lust, power, security, social status and vanity all wrapped up in one.

Now remember I have the same qualifications as the pundits do, maybe even more: I know nothing about money.

But I do know human behavior.


So here are my predictions about the economy.

It will be volatile, up and down and until it goes up continuously people will freak out every time it dips.

And it’s likely to dip a lot deeper for some time. Then if you’re smart you can make money!

And dip it will; the media will make sure you know this. They will also feed the fear and convince you that this is reality so you need to focus on it. And by focusing on this reality we will all create more of it, I promise you.

When the economy does finally recover everyone will take credit for it, and all the pundits will tell you “I said we needed to do this to turn it around”. No one will ever look back to now to see what they really said.

So my advice: Since I don’t play the market much, again I have all the qualifications to tell you this. Anyone who tells you they are doing much better than the market in returns is either lying or cheating.

So don’t expect your market investments to do any better than the market and for the immediate future that means don’t expect much!

Above all take care of your health. And take care of the ones you love. That is what will matter in the long run.

Take your fish oil!

On Thanksgiving

For me, Thanksgiving is one of the more solemn holidays.

Like many people I spend the time with my family and have a traditional meal, etc., relishing the time with those I love and keep close.

Perhaps, like you, I have a small nuclear family that I value above all else because they are the reason I get up every morning.

I do not speak of them much because they prefer to be in the background and remain anonymous, avoiding the sometime celebrity that follows my public appearances.

But I give thanks for and to them everyday, especially on this day.

Here are some other things you may relate to as well:

I am grateful for having the best friends any man could ever wish for.

I give thanks for my health and the ability to create more of it and share these discoveries with others. I can say that at my current age (50-ish) I am as fit and healthy as I have ever been and I look forward to the next decade with the positive expectation of more of the same, perhaps even better.

I will share that with you as well through my continued writings.

I am grateful that I live in the USA.

In spite of the media feast on the supposedly dead carcass of our economy, I know two things for sure: First, the rest of the world (yes, even China and Japan) will falter miserably if we are weak economically. We still matter that much, much to the chagrin of the rest of the world. And two, the economy will turn around and be resilient and strong again, hopefully devoid, at least for a while, of the greed and stupidity and duplicity that got us into this mess in the first place.

I am grateful that I avoided all that!

I am grateful that I believe with all my heart that I make my own future and that it is not totally dependent on all the outside forces that others seem to dwell on.

I am grateful that I understand that adversity is merely the flip side of opportunity.

I am grateful to my critics and to the people who dwell on the negative aspects of the world, my world and their world for reminding me of what I do not want to be.

I am grateful for the new wonderful people who continuously enter my life.

I am grateful for the people who have left and the lessons they taught me.

I am grateful for the mind I have been given and the ability to see and create things that did not exist in the past because every man and woman wants to leave a legacy and to a large extent Dr. Dave’s Best will be mine.

I am grateful for my home, my car, my bikes, my hobbies, my talents, the beautiful area I live in and my continued ability to share and uplift people with them.

I could go on but you get the picture.

I have a lot to be thankful for.

I hope you do too and that you are able to recognize it.

Thanks for spending this little time with me and have a blessed and wonderful Thanksgiving and a gratifying rest of the year!

Doc

P.S. To all of you who will be joining me at my Boot Camp in Boca this February, my sincere gratitude as well and be ready for a tour de force in fitness and fun!

How to increase your calorie burn by twenty percent

How to increase your calorie burn by twenty percent

A few months ago I took a little run through the Canadian Rockies. I ran 78 miles to be exact and when I crossed the finish line of this race known as the Canadian Death Race (because if you finish you probably cheated death) I had achieved something that only 35% of the people who started as solo runners did.

I finished the race!

Now there were many factors in this. As a matter of fact, I am in the process of writing a book about the experience but I can distill it down to a few biggies.

And it's one of those biggies I want to tell you about now.

Trekking poles.

After attempting to come down one of the mountain sides in practice I realized there is no way my quads and my legs are going to survive such a race. Enter "Dr. Death" also known as Dale, the originator of the Death Race. After a 5 minute session on trekking pole use, I was set and I found them to be one of the major keys to completing such a long, hard race over such difficult terrain.

They especially helped me literally fly down the mountain sides without breaking my neck. This helped make up for my less than stellar speed on the climbing side of things.

So when I got back from the Death Race I decided that just about any run on any trail I would take would see my trusty trekking poles by my side.

Thus when I showed up at some shorter races in my local area I got a bunch of funny looks and a few comments about "the dude with the ski poles".

Most had never even seen them let alone seen anyone using them.

What my running friends didn't know is that trekking polls stand poised to be "the next big thing" along with band training in the fitness industry.

And with good reason, they help you burn more fat.

I could go on and on about why I use trekking poles for my trail runs, but the main reason I want to bring them to your attention is that recent studies in the Journal of Strength Conditioning Research have shown that they increase the calorie burn without increasing the perceived exertion of the exercise.

So whether you walk or run, you burn more calories and you don't feel more tired.

It has been estimated that you actually burn about 20% more calories using the poles because they engage your upper body and core.

So if you are looking for a way to improve your walking/running efficiency in terms of calorie burning this is a great way to do it.

And if like me you live in areas of ice and snow in the winter, the poles behave like extra legs so now you have 4 legs instead of 2!

Get out, move and enjoy!

Learning to say goodbye

If I had to put my finger on the one thing that bugs most people, causes more problems in people's lives and more emotional, physical and spiritual discord it would be this: other people!

In twenty + years of practicing medicine I have listened over and over to people complain about other people. The most common complaint I hear would boil down to this: They just won't behave the way I want them to!

Now no one actually comes out and says this. What you get is a litany of complaints instead about reactions, behaviors, responses, lack of responses and overall multiple reasons why one or more people is making the selected individual miserable.

If only they would be the way I want them to be and then I could be happy.

A scary thought isn't it?

Needing someone to behave a certain way for you to be happy!

My advice to these folks is "don’t hold your breathe and learn to say goodbye and good luck."

It is very rare that anyone will permanently modify their behavior willingly to suit another person.

Those that try usually get bitter and miserable themselves and ultimately find that there is really no end to the need to change for someone else once you have tried.

Now goodbye is a tough thing and not always possible. After all we are pretty much stuck with some of our family members. In those situations you pretty much have to simply accept them as they are. I'll tell you one thing: at least they're consistent.

I think goodbye is an underutilized word in our lives.

Loyal, determined and persistent beings that we are, we tend to cling too long to things and people that no longer serve us.

I am all about evolution personally and I will tell you that as life changes so do relationships.

Not always for the better.

Your goal is to be happy in your world, not to change the worlds of others so the world looks the same for everyone. It will never work anyway.

Sometimes goodbye is the best thing you can do for everyone involved.

Remember this. When you say goodbye be thankful to the person you are saying goodbye to even if it's painful, sad or angering.

Like it or not they were part of your evolution. Hey, at least you know what you don't want!
