60 Minutes recently did a segment on Resveratrol which is supposed to do the same thing as claimed for Rapamycin here. How about a little cross referencing in these articles & segments in the future?

“In flies and worms, drug treatments have been shown to prolong lifespan...”

So you’re saying they’ve been secretly giving this to members of congress?

Most people do not know that Sirolimus(Rapamune) was extracted from the soil of Easter Island in 1987.

I have used Rapamune, since my Heart Tx three years ago.According to my mirror it does not appear to be Ponce de Leon’s fountain of youth.
