RE: The quest for elixir of life - Episode 3 - Inflammageing

They show that this can be reversed by use of anti-inflammatory drug - ibuprofen or via an anti-oxidant drug.

Eat your colored fruits and veggies, I guess! Did they use a kind of over-the-counter supplement-like antioxidant or was it a potent chemichy-type drug?

what we saw in today's article is when we get old we get a low grade chronic inflammation in our body.

Works the other way around too, I guess?

we will look into effect of caloric restriction on inflammation and take our quest further

That's interesting. I was reading @rycharde's self-experiments just yesterday. Let's see what you give us!

As long as two bodies can meet each other and produce a new body that will live a fourscore years, it means the solution is in there somewhere. The body knows, but it's keeping immortality a tight-lipped secret! ☝

They used BHA, an antioxidant, which is a food additive used in animal feed.

Yes

Ah! Nice, I will be reading those self experiments today, in that case.

That's a nice way of putting it out, I would say.
