The article discusses genetic treatments that reverse aging at the cellular level and highlights the role of exercises and diets in functioning of body and mind. Topics discussed include a study which suggests that the effects of Alzheimer's disease may be reversed through dietary changes, brain stimulation and exercise, metabolic changes induced through diets high in fructose and sucrose, and age-related hearing loss. Other topics discussed include use of mouse protein to treat heart hypertrophy, association between social networking and health, and effect of volunteering on stress.
