Inhibiting mTOR, the “master determinant of lifespan,” is considered the best validated aging regulator. So, how do you slow it down? This is the first video in a three part series, so stay tuned for Inhibiting mTOR with Rapamycin for Extending Lifespan and Healthspan (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/inhibiting mtor with rapamycin for extending lifespan and healthspan) and Is Rapamycin a Universal Anti Aging Drug? (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/is rapamycin a universal anti aging drug).
