Understanding the Link Between Blood Sugar, Aging, and Longevity with Dr. Bob HaririIntroductionIn a revealing conversation, longevity scientist Dr. Bob Hariri delves into groundbreaking insights on aging and the critical role blood sugar management plays in health and longevity. His discussion highlights how high glucose levels, senescent cells, and immune system dynamics contribute to premature aging. Additionally, these factors are linked to the onset of chronic diseases. This article summarizes Dr. Hariri's insights, exploring the interplay between blood sugar control, immune health, and aging.High Blood Sugar: A Key Factor in AgingOne of Dr. Hariri’s central points is the damaging effect of elevated blood glucose on the circulatory system. He uses an impactful analogy, comparing glucose molecules to "shards of glass" that damage blood vessel linings. The accumulation of glucose leads to inflammation, scarring, and atherosclerosis, all of which significantly compromise […]
