Half Life Of Lipofuscin

Re: My age spots are increasing. I was hoping that, given the four-year half life of PUFAs, I would have excreted much of it out of my body in the last ten years of being careful. Tissues and organs do not all age at a uniform rate. Organs can be decades apart in aging, depending…

OMEGA 3 FATTY ACIDS are the prime culprits — DHA, EPA, ALA, etc. They transform metal complexes into molecular attack weapons.

Monsanto Fighting Lipofuscin?

The cure is worse than the disease. Old age a few years earlier is the worst most people will get from eating omega 3 fatty acids. Many people get various forms of amyloid-tangled, brain-plaque dementia, but highly unsaturated fatty acids aren’t the sole perpetrator. Richard F. Wilson & David F. Hildebrand (“Engineering Status, Challenges and…
