00:01 The following program presents principles
00:03 designed to promote good health and is not intended 00:05 to take the placed of personalized 00:07 professional care. The opinions and ideas 00:10 expressed are those of the speaker. 00:12 Viewers are encouraged to draw their own 00:14 conclusions about the information presented. 00:49 Hello and welcome to Health For A Lifetime. 00:51 I'm your host Don MacKintosh. 00:53 We're glad that you joined us today 00:54 and we are glad you are watching 3ABN. 00:56 We think that you grow spiritually and hopefully 00:59 you live longer and that's what we are gonna talk 01:01 about today longevity and to talk with us about 01:04 this important subject is someone who has lived 01:07 a number of years, but he still looks young, 01:10 which is also good. Dr. George Guthrie, 01:12 we're glad that you are here with us today, 01:14 thanks Don, and you are a physician, 01:18 you have been a physician for a man, 01:19 who only looks probably might be 5-10 years, 01:21 but you really been practicing 01:22 for almost 25 years, that's right 01:24 and you are now at the Lifestyle Center 01:26 of America in Southern Okalahoma 01:28 and there you treat all kinds of diseases 01:32 from a lifestyle perspective, 01:34 that's right, that's right. We try to help people 01:37 optimize their lifestyle, so that they minimize 01:39 their need of physicians and medications. 01:43 Oh! I am sure the drug companies love you 01:45 and, they don't visit us anymore Don, 01:47 they don't visit. 01:49 Well look you have a great webpage, 01:52 I have been through it there Lifestyle Center 01:53 of America and goes through the different programs 01:56 and different things that, that you offer their 01:59 and many times people come their to you 02:02 because they are in a acute disease stage, 02:05 you know, they realize they are going in the wrong way 02:07 and you help them reverse that, right, 02:09 but wouldn't it be better if they came 02:11 and just learned how to do things, 02:13 so they could prevent the things they are dealing with. 02:15 Generally to spend that much time 02:17 and that much money there needs to be a crisis, 02:19 umm! umm! sometimes what we do is called 02:21 by people preventive medicine, 02:24 but it's no more preventive medicine and what 02:26 the cardiologists does when he puts in a stent 02:29 for example, umm! umm! we really doing lifestyle 02:32 intervention on disease, umm! umm! 02:35 But this is your chance as we talk today about 02:38 how people can take a perspective right now, 02:41 may be I don't care what age you are watching, 02:43 you can learn from today how to live hopefully 02:45 for a longtime. Living long and healthfully 02:47 is really the what prevention is all about, 02:50 isn't it, that's right. Now what is it, 02:53 we talk about life expectancy in order words, 02:56 how long we expect to live maybe, 03:01 what is it that really impacts that. 03:05 Really our lifestyle affects it, 03:07 but for us to understand that is a bit of challenge, 03:12 you see, as science has tried to approach 03:15 how to live a longtime. Now, I know when preacher 03:17 has come to living a long time 03:20 it's a little different tack, 03:21 we talk about eternal life, right. 03:23 But scientists are working on extending really life 03:26 and the quality of life here on this planet 03:29 and as a Christian I like to think of that as 03:31 extending my opportunity for service, 03:34 the joy of service and this is part of 03:36 eternal life of course. But again as the scientists 03:41 try to delve into this whole field they have got 03:43 some dilemmas especially setting in human beings 03:45 because they are human beings too for example 03:49 young fellow at 18 decides I'm gonna study 03:53 how to live a long time, so he goes to school studies, 03:56 he is a bright fellow, he has got his PHD by age 30, 03:59 gets couple of research projects under his belt 04:02 and finally gets the big one 04:03 at age 35 to study ageing to do it right. 04:07 He has got a start prenatally before birth, 04:12 and he is already like 35 years old, 04:14 and he is already 35, you see the problem 04:15 is he is gonna die before his subjects too, 04:18 so it's little harder for us to study our own species 04:21 and we have had to depend often on what we can 04:24 learn from other species, so how they gone about it, 04:27 they look at, how do scientists go about 04:29 studying ageing then since they are gonna die. 04:31 Well in humans the first thing we can do 04:33 is observe right, Umm! Umm! 04:34 and so you look around and you say okay 04:38 around the world who lives a long time 04:41 and we have the Vilcabambans, 04:43 Equatorial Andes, we have got the Georgians 04:47 from the Caucasus mountains. 04:49 We have got, okay now once, 04:51 well okay now once, yes the actually longest living 04:55 people today as if as far as the culture. Umm! 05:00 So we look at these populations and we say 05:04 what is it about their life that's different 05:08 then everybody else may be that has something 05:11 to do with and living longer, 05:13 as we look at them for example in a group of Hunzer, 05:16 they look to their cholesterols, 05:18 they are like between 120 and 150 somewhere 05:21 wrong in there really lower cholesterol levels, 05:26 on average people are more active 05:28 they eat fewer calories, umm! umm! So, 05:32 we can learn some things from looking at people 05:35 who have lived a longtime, but it's not consider 05:38 a real good science, we have improved any thing 05:40 we have simply observe some things, okay. 05:42 So sounds like diet has something to do with it 05:46 and you mentioned cholesterol levels, sure, 05:48 sure. I of course diet is associated with some 05:50 diseases, diseases tend to end our lives, so right. 05:55 Now your message today is probably gonna be you know 05:57 people are gonna think twice before jumping 05:59 on the bandwagon, but you are gonna be talking about 06:01 caloric restriction as relates to longevity. 06:07 That's where science has ended up 06:09 pointing their finger. It's a real, really a rather 06:14 interesting topic as we got to move towards 06:17 an understanding. As scientists have moved 06:20 toward try and understand how this works on humans 06:22 one of things they did was a very large study 06:26 in Alameda County in California just 06:29 North of the Golden Gate Bridge 06:31 one of the wealthiest counties in the country. 06:33 They got a whole group of elderly folks, 06:37 7000 of them who were at least 70 years of age 06:40 and they follow them from 1965 to 1974, Umm! 06:46 They ask them at the beginning a whole bunch 06:48 of questions about their lifestyle, 06:50 anything they could think of that might make a 06:52 difference is far how is people, 06:54 you know, what makes them live longer 06:55 and what makes people die sooner, umm! umm! 06:58 Then over that period of time they watch the 07:00 death registry to see who died from what 07:03 and then went back and look at the data, 07:07 okay. So these were these peoples habits, 07:09 these died sooner, these died later 07:12 what can we do as human beings to live longer, 07:15 first step, so it's little better then the observation 07:17 and we have got several of them here. 07:20 The first one, I bet you are not surprised at, 07:23 it's don't smoke, don't smoke oh! 07:26 that is, people who don't smoke live longer, 07:29 well of course, we know that right, smoking 07:31 leads to cancer and puts it at risk for heart disease, 07:36 so that's obvious right, umm! umm! 07:39 Regular exercise, that doesn't surprise me either, 07:42 really. Regular exercise helps us keep fit 07:45 doesn't it, umm! umm! Has keep active and 07:48 we notice it in the other populations those 07:51 who live a longtime it tend to be active. 07:53 So regular exercise, I mean watching a game 07:56 show once or may be was talk show 07:58 and this guy was on there and he was talking about 08:01 being a 104 years old and he was running 08:04 or walking 2 miles a day and then 08:08 they interviewed him overhere and then 1 year 08:10 he didn't do it and he wasn't back, he died, 08:13 okay. I guess that make sense. 08:16 Exercise does help obviously that was 08:18 observational and we would like a little 08:20 stronger proof then just a story, but, 08:22 that was one. Another one, appropriate weight, 08:27 appropriate weight, I bet you are not, 08:28 you are weight is appropriate 08:30 you are not as likely to die sooner, 08:33 that's not a surprise either is it, no. 08:35 I mean that's, what is overweight associated 08:39 with disease wise. Oh! Diabetes, sure, 08:43 hypertension, heart disease big ones, 08:47 yeah, probably stroke, arthritis, 08:49 so having a normal way is a reasonable finding 08:54 from this Alameda Health Study, okay. 08:56 Now the next one is a bit of surprise it was 08:58 to me when I saw it, okay, what is it, 09:01 regular breakfast, breakfast, 09:04 what, what was the association there, 09:06 well you know they don't tell us, 09:07 all they said was people who eat a regular breakfast 09:10 live longer, umm! 09:13 Now I can guess, I think we have got some evidence 09:16 of possible explanations for that, 09:18 umm! umm! one of them might be 09:22 people who eat breakfast tend to eat foods that are 09:25 protective for example more whole grains 09:28 more fruit, umm! umm! Another one, 09:33 people who eat breakfast actually 09:34 eat fewer calories during the day, umm! 09:37 People who skip breakfast eat more calories 09:40 they kind a get that starve sort of thing. 09:42 So eating breakfast has a decreased number 09:44 of calories and I have wondered if a big meal 09:48 at night doesn't really stress the system 09:51 you all that food coming in and if somebody 09:53 goes to sleep and just lays their with all that food 09:56 doesn't it clog up the system, umm! 09:59 So one of my, and it's just you know theory, 10:02 is that people who eat breakfast 10:05 or the ones who haven't eaten a big meal, 10:07 the night before because if they eat a big meal 10:09 the night before you are not hungry in the morning, 10:11 right, so may be it's kind of a secondary marker 10:13 for a big meal we don't know, 10:15 umm! umm! certainly not from this study, 10:16 but there is some possibilities 10:19 and so regular exercise way breakfast 10:22 anything else they found in 10:23 the Alameda Health Study. No snacks, no snacks, 10:28 snacks, people are signing out there 10:30 they say Oh! no, no, umm! umm! okay, no snacks. 10:34 May be you've heard it before I kind a like 10:36 this little saying the bigger the snacks 10:40 the bigger the slacks, okay, 10:43 I don't know who originated it, but, 10:44 probably true, you know the snacks that we eat tend 10:46 to be high in salt and fat or high in sugar 10:51 and fat and don't the advertisement say 10:53 you can't have just one, well said, 10:56 and they seem to be right don't they yeah, 10:58 they seem to be right. So for some reason 11:00 and it make sense to me, umm! umm!, 11:02 no snacks is actually tends to make people 11:07 a lot of people who live longer, 11:09 okay. Well let's review what we are seeing so far, 11:11 okay, put up on a graphic. No smoking, 11:14 these are the things that were done in the 11:16 Sabbath Alameda Health Study. 11:17 Regular exercise, appropriate weight, 11:20 regular breakfast, no snacks and then 11:22 the one we didn't cover, 7-8 hours of sleep a day. 11:26 Now, I would rather say night, a night, 11:28 I don't like people to go to sleep during my lectures, 11:30 okay, so 7-8 hours of sleep in a 24-hour period 11:34 generally you need, we need at night 11:36 is associated with living longer. 11:39 So if we want to live longer then 11:43 these are the things we really need 11:44 to be looking at. But these are lifestyle 11:46 components that we can do something about 11:48 to help us live a little longer. 11:50 We are talking with Dr. George Guthrie, 11:52 we are talking about longevity, 11:54 how you can live a longtime 11:56 and I think all of you started interested in that 11:59 and I think that if we are not we should be, 12:02 so when we comeback we are gonna look at 12:03 some groups that actually live at a longtime 12:05 the Okinawans and when we comeback we look at 12:08 even more factors that may be you can incorporate. 12:11 Join us when we comeback. 12:14 Have you found yourself wishing that you could 12:15 shed a few pounds, have you been on a diet 12:18 for most of your life, but not found anything 12:20 that will really keep the weight off, 12:22 if you have answered yes to any of these questions 12:25 then we have a solution for you that works 12:28 Dr. Hans Diehl and Dr. Aileen Ludington 12:30 have written a marvelous booklet called Reversing 12:33 Obesity Naturally and we would like to send it 12:36 to you free of charge, here's a medically 12:39 sound approach, successfully used by 12:41 thousands, who were able to eat more 12:43 and lose weight permanently without feeling guilty 12:46 or hungry through my lifestyle medicine. 12:48 Dr. Diehl and Dr. Ludington have been featured on 3ABN 12:52 and in this booklet they present a sensible 12:54 approach to eating nutrition and lifestyle 12:57 changes that can help you prevent heart disease, 12:59 diabetes and even cancer.

We have been taking 13:24 about longevity and we have been taking with 13:27 George Guthrie, he is a physician from 13:29 Southern Okalahoma and his whole purpose in life 13:32 is to help people live longer here and hopeful 13:34 also have ever lasting life as they come to know 13:37 Jesus Christ is their savior, 13:38 but let's look a little bit at what we were reviewing 13:42 or going over just before the break. 13:45 The Alameda Health Study Dr. Guthrie were looking at, 13:47 umm! right, and it showed that those 13:49 who live longer don't smoke, 13:50 they get regular exercise, have the appropriate weight, 13:53 they eat breakfast, they don't eat snacks 13:55 or very little and they sleep 7-8 hours 13:59 in a 24 hour period. These were some things 14:02 and, these were lifestyle choices, lifestyle 14:06 related situations that you can do 14:09 something about right. And at the Lifestyle 14:12 Center of America there in Okalahoma 14:14 you try and remind the people of this all the time. 14:16 That's right, that's what our work is. 14:18 Well, let's look now at this other group 14:21 you mentioned and I want to comeback you 14:23 had mentioned the okinawans. 14:24 We had started out saying it is difficult for human 14:28 beings to study human beings getting older, 14:30 right because they die, and so we can look 14:32 at older folks, we can do it in a kind of 14:36 observational sort of a way then the Alameda 14:38 Health Study was another way to do it and now 14:40 another study this actually ongoing and it's 14:43 designed in such a way that it out lives any investigator, 14:48 so you can go on, so in other words say handed 14:49 on to the next, handed on to the next generation, 14:51 is a look at the population in this world 14:55 that lives the longest. The people who live on 14:57 the Island of Okinawa, Japanese Island 15:01 small relatively poor folks, 15:05 south of Japan have a life expectancy longer 15:09 than anyone else in the world. 15:11 I heard the Seventh-Day Adventists in California did. 15:14 Well, I'm sorry that is another country. 15:17 Oh! okay, but as far as looking at country, 15:20 so we have, their life expectancy is about 15:23 81 years of age, so that's quite impressive, 15:27 81 years of age, yeah. So as we look at 15:31 what's different about the Okinawans, 15:33 we begin to learn some interesting things, like. 15:36 Well, number one, Okinawans eat 40% fewer 15:40 calories what Americans do, 15:42 oh, so they don't lose it's back to this whole 15:44 idea a low caloric intake is associated 15:48 with longevity, you introduced that concept, 15:50 caloric restriction, that's correct. 15:53 They eat 17% fewer calories then the 15:56 average Japanese, so even on the other island 16:00 they eat more than they do, that's right, okay. 16:03 But, their the calories they take well it's low 16:09 they have excellent nutrition, umm! 16:11 so they are eating less, but it's better. 16:14 They are eating fewer calories, but it's better 16:16 and they have a rather simple lifestyle 16:19 there is a lot of truck farming, 16:21 people have their own farms, 16:22 they do their own fishing, they are active, 16:24 they are preparing their own food, 16:25 so excellent nutrition, but restricted calories why 16:29 Okinawan children have 36% below 16:34 the Japanese recommended intake for their children 16:38 as far as calories are concerned, okay, 16:39 so they are in the low side. 16:40 So they are unlike not a high protein diet, 16:42 but little protein diet. Well, we are taking 16:44 about calories, okay, so low calorie diet, 16:46 low calories that's high in nutrient density, 16:49 okay and they live longer, umm! It's really had an 16:53 impressive situation, so the message is move 16:56 to Okinawa, okay. I suppose you don't have 16:59 to do that to gain the benefit, 17:01 but you can maybe put in the practice some 17:03 of the things, some of the things have learned. 17:04 Now if we look at the, what happens in the Okinawa 17:07 in experience is they have these restricted 17:10 calories, umm! umm! We find that Okinawan 17:14 old people are 75% more likely to retain 17:19 their cognitive ability, and they don't loose 17:21 their coconut, they don't loose their coconut, 17:23 their minds stays clear. There is a 75% improved 17:29 risk that is less likely to get Alzheimer's. 17:33 Woh! This said interest to lot of us, yes, 17:36 it's okay. There 80% few are breast and 17:40 prostate cancers, that's a big killer, so 17:43 breast cancer, why not, what is at 100 of every 17:44 3 men gets it, quite a few, in America, 17:46 50% few are ovarian and colon cancers, umm! 17:51 and 50% few are hip fractures, 17:55 it sounds like they are on top of everything, 17:57 well it does, it's interesting the Okinawans 18:00 take in on an average 500 mg of calcium a day, 18:05 woh! The recommendations for us here in this country 18:07 for postmenopausal women is 12 to 1500 mg. 18:11 The Okinawans have fewer hip fractures 18:13 and they actually take less calcium, which is 18:15 kind of interesting. Umm! I don't know 18:18 if there is a connection between caloric restriction 18:20 and the bones, but it may not be all 18:23 osteoporosis may not all be a calcium. 18:25 So they must get their calcium from green leafy 18:28 vegetables, that's where the calcium gets it, 18:29 that's where the calcium gets it, okay. 18:32 So, interestingly enough the Okinawans have 80% 18:35 fewer heart attacks as well, 18:37 80% this is a interesting. Let's review those, 18:40 we have some graphics that help us review that 18:42 because the people are saying. 18:43 I wanna be Okinawan, 18:45 let's, let's write them down, okay. 18:48 40% fewer calories than Americans, 18:50 so less is more. Umm! Umm! 18:52 17% fewer calories than the Japanese average. 18:56 Caloric intake of Okinawan children is 36% below 19:01 the Japanese recommended intake, 19:03 so their total cereals not the same as 19:06 the total cereal of the Japanese, okay. 19:08 And the Okinawans have adequate nutrition, 19:11 so calorically dense foods, not calorically dense, 19:16 nutritionally dense, nutritionally, 19:18 calorically not so dense, not so dense, okay. 19:21 A calorically dense foods that would be 19:24 nutritionally poor would be things like 19:27 French Fries, potato chips, I means it's a junk food, 19:29 so very little junk food a lot of plant food. 19:32 Morbidity is minimized 75% more likely to retain 19:35 cognitive ability, they don't loose their coconut, 19:38 80% few, fewer breast and prostate cancers. 19:42 Umm! Umm! And you said 50% fewer ovarian and 19:46 colon cancers, right. And 50% fewer fractures 19:49 of the hip and the average intake is like 500 mg of 19:54 calcium a day, which is much lower, but 19:57 they are still doing better 19:58 in that hip fracture, yes. And an 80% 20:00 fewer heart attacks, amazing. 20:02 It's a rather interesting experience, 20:04 now I supposed it's time to pull in the 20:07 information that we have obtained 20:09 from animal studies, okay. Because 20:12 it appears that longevity in human beings as 20:16 we kind of pointed out as in the Okinawans as 20:18 an example is related to caloric restriction. 20:22 We have learned that from experience with rats 20:27 and mites and rodents. So if you decrease 20:31 their calories they live longer. 20:33 Yes, you think about it, they take a rat or mouse, 20:37 they put it in a cage, they give it a wheel 20:39 to run on, and they give a food all the food 20:42 at once and that's rather boring sort of a life 20:44 I would suppose. I have tried to put 20:46 myself in a rat's place what would I do in a cage, 20:50 eat, right, eat, what we call that Ad Libitum, 20:54 that is eat all you want. Ad Libitum, 20:57 that sounds like a, sound like a model of America. 21:00 Eat what you want, so when you allow mice 21:03 or rats to eat all they want, umm! umm! 21:06 They have a certain lifespan. 21:08 If you calorically restrict them 21:11 they actually live longer, I think we have a graphic 21:13 that kind of shows that from some studies. Okay, 21:17 so here it is, which one is the healthy way. 21:19 Well, notice on the top the green one there is 21:22 non-caloric restricted, the CR means 21:25 calorically restricted, and they lived only 21:26 what 30 minutes and it looks like it's not minutes 21:29 I think, has more to do, months, with months, okay. 21:31 So, with eating all they want they last, oh! 21:36 at about 35 months and then they eat, 21:39 they eat less. If they eat 25% less you can see 21:43 it extends out closure to 43, okay, with 55% less 21:47 it's getting at above 50 and of course 65% about 21:51 55. Now if you go much beyond that, 21:53 you start talking about malnutrition 21:55 and of course the death rate starts to come sooner. 21:58 So there is a point beyond, which you cannot 22:01 calorically restrict. So the solution here 22:05 to the problem with rats is feed them more. 22:08 Oh! you mean as far as to kill the rats because 22:10 you don't want them, right. If you don't 22:12 want them you just put more food out in your house 22:15 you know we are in 3ABN, what may be, may be, 22:17 may be it would be better to learn a lesson from 22:20 the rats, okay learn a lesson from the rats, okay. 22:22 And when the rats are in the rat race of life, 22:27 okay and they are eating they have got all 22:30 the foods supply that they need 22:33 they are very likely to die sooner same with us. 22:36 If we want to live a little longer, 22:37 it would make sense that we did a little more 22:39 of the hunt and scratch that's the rats do. 22:42 You know in the natural world they don't have 22:45 all they want, they have to find this seed here, 22:47 find that seed their, kind of run around 22:49 or they it's little bit and I think the natural 22:52 state is more calorically restricted 22:54 then the cage fed, okay. And we were designed 22:57 to be that way, to be outside, to be working, 23:02 to hunting gathering, to grow our food, okay, 23:04 hunting, gathering, moving, growing 23:07 and not eating as much as many calories as we are now. 23:12 So how does it work there, 23:13 how does this caloric restriction work. 23:16 That's a fascinating study and scientists beginning 23:19 to understand it. Let's see if I can put 23:22 together in simple language. 23:25 Many of us have talked about getting vitamin E 23:28 and vitamin C, we probably our, 23:30 many of our listeners are taking it now 23:32 to try to live longer and put off disease. 23:34 Umm! Umm! Anti-oxidants are 23:36 supposed to keep down the free radicals 23:38 those things that would cause cancer well 23:40 and even kill cells why? We think that free radicals 23:43 have something to do with a normal 23:45 dieing off of cells. Free radicals are very reactive, 23:50 very radical, very radical, 23:52 if we get it loose they damage DNA, 23:56 RNA, proteins, they damage things in the cells 24:01 and when there is enough damage and even 24:03 the repair mechanisms and the backup mechanisms 24:06 are damaged then the cell dies. 24:08 Umm! Umm! We start it losing 24:09 them one at a time and when we loose too many, 24:11 we die. Umm! With that's kind of the process. 24:14 So how this caloric restriction 24:17 address these things, address the whole 24:19 business of free radicals, how does it decrease 24:22 free radicals. Well, the answer lies within 24:26 the mitochondrion, okay those are the power 24:28 houses of the cells, the little power houses 24:30 inside the cells have within them the mechanism 24:34 to take the food that we eat and turn it into 24:36 energy that our cells use we call it ATP, okay. 24:41 That process, right, each day in each cell 24:47 makes somewhere between 24:50 a 100,000 and 1 million free radicals, 24:54 oh!, so each cell in your body making 24:56 all these free radicals. Some people worry about 24:58 the free radicals in the air. 24:59 Let me tell you there is nothing compared 25:01 to the free radicals that are made just in 25:03 normal physiology. I'm feeling 25:05 more radical as we talk. 25:08 The free radical, the extra electron that's 25:11 so active is then passed on through the body. 25:14 It goes into the, it's picked up by 25:15 coenzyme Q10 or vitamin E, glutathione, 25:19 vitamin C, Bioflavonoids and finally it's dumped 25:24 in the colon, in the fiber, 25:25 which is the high fiber diet should be a good 25:28 dump for those free radicals. 25:30 So that's what the way the body deals with it, 25:33 okay. Now, it's very interesting you heard 25:36 me say somewhere between 100,000 and a million 25:39 per day per cell, that's a lot, 25:41 but think about it there is a difference of 10 fold. 25:44 If you did something different you might 25:46 make one tenth as many free radicals. 25:48 If you did something else you might make 25:50 10 times as many so there is a range, okay. 25:53 It ends up that when we have too many calories 25:56 more than we need, our body gets very 25:59 inefficient and it makes many more free radicals, 26:03 oh! I see, when we are calorically restricted 26:06 then, then it's less, we make up to 26:09 110th number of free radicals. 26:11 In illustration on a hot summer afternoon, 26:14 you grab a big glass of lemon to quench 26:17 your thirst and deal with the heat, 26:20 an hour later you are hotter than you were before 26:22 why because all that energy you buy 26:24 it don't know what to do with it, 26:25 it is trying to turn into heat. 26:26 So, it didn't really help. And illuminate would 26:29 not be good as well, water, exactly. 26:32 So, caloric restriction helps us live a longtime, 26:34 but increasing the efficiency decrease 26:36 in the free radicals and it's true the anti-oxidants 26:39 especially those it come in plants can be very 26:41 helpful in helping us maintain good cell health 26:45 throughout our body so we can live 26:48 a long time and enjoy it. 26:51 Is it too late to start? That's a excellent question. 26:56 Scientists have been trying to answer 26:57 that question and I don't know they have 26:59 the answer completely, but a couple, 27:01 a few months ago, I ran across an article 27:04 where they were studying fruit flies, okay, 27:07 and they found that no matter how late 27:09 in the fruit flies life 27:12 they did caloric restriction, 27:13 the fruit fly still in the same height. 27:15 So, I don't know whether that will 27:18 turn over to be same for humans, 27:19 but it were fruit flies and we are starting there. 27:21 I don't think it's too late, good. 27:23 If it is good for the fly, it might be good for you 27:25 and I.
