Dear Colleagues,
I thought that perhaps this scientific community may be interested to know
about the existence of legitimate anti-aging studies published in
reputable scientific journals by established researchers.
Here is a sample example of such studies (21 references). The terms like
'anti-aging' in the titles of the publications are highlighted in CAPITAL
letters.

rat liver autophagic proteolysis from the age-related decline co-varies
