Other terms are familiar but difficult to explain. As the good cholesterol and the hormone DHEA.

Bad cholesterol or LDL has become the “bete noire” of doctors, who ruthlessly pursued their patients because it accumulates in the arteries and increases dramatically the possibility of heart disease.

By contrast, HDL cholesterol, LDL helps fight and prevent it from accumulating.

The hormone DHEA was baptized in the late twentieth century as the elixir of eternal youth, although the expectations placed on it have not-at least for now-expected results.

DHEA is short for dihidroepieandrosterona, a natural hormone produced by the adrenal glands and, in turn, can make hormones such as testosterone, estrogen and progesterone. These hormones decrease with age and their absence contributes to diabetes, dementia and cardiovascular problems in men, and obesity and vascular disease in women.

The stem cell research is still in its infancy, but everything suggests that future humans could live for over one hundred years, in great shape physically and mentally.
