Telomere length
or is it?
Research has allowed scientists to identify central aging
system in cells – and specifically the aging clock in DNA
The two basic DNA markers that regulate aging are
Telomere length and Methyl Group Loss
Inside the center or nucleus of a cell, our genes are located on twisted,
double-stranded molecules of DNA called chromosomes.
Telomere
At the ends of the chromosomes are stretches of DNA called telomeres,
which protect our genetic data, make it possible for cells to divide.
Telomeres have been compared with the plastic tips on shoelaces
because they prevent chromosome ends from fraying and sticking to
each other, which would scramble an organism's genetic information to
cause cancer, other degenerative diseases, or death.
Each time a cell divides the telomeres get shorter (by 30-200 BP).
Healthy cells only divide between 50-70 times. When telomeres get too
short, the cells no longer can divide and becomes inactive, sustain
genetic damage and ultimately die.

Similar to telomere shortening – the loss of Methyl Groups (CH3)
shows a specific preprogrammed degradation throughout
mammalian lifespan. The degradation is accelerated by oxidative
stress, poor nutrition, lack of exercise, and environmental toxins.

Record mammalian longevity achieved
through weekly injection of DNA and RNA
• Study began with 750 day old rats with usual longevity of 800
to 900 days
• Identical conditions except treated animals received nucleic
acid injections
• Post 8 weeks control rats lost fur and vitality, whereas treated
animals increased muscle mass, libido, and activity levels
• Control animals all died in less than 150 days from start of
study
• Treated animals lived a minimum of 850 up to 1500 additional
days from start of study, doubling and even tripling the usual
life span

HOMOCYSTEINE
What is Homocysteine?
Homocysteine is a toxic amino acid by-product produced
by our own organism and accumulates in the bloodstream.
Elevated homocysteine is not only the indicator of, but is
the CAUSE of many major diseases includin Alzheimer’,
Arthritis, Cancer, Chronic Fatigue, Depression, Diabetes,
Heart Attacks, Infertility, Obesity, Strokes, Thyroid
Problems, and Ulcers
Homocysteine also accelerates the oxidation of LDL
Homocysteine Level VS Cardiac Risk Ratio
Research has shown that higher
HOMOCYSTEINE levels are directly
related to demethylation and telomere shortening

Primary source of nucleotides is endogenous synthesis
from amino acids and simple precursors
• Therefore nucleic acids have generally been
considered nonessential nutrients
• Under stress, however, some tissues unable to
produce enough nucleotides to support tissue needs
• In these conditions, nucleic acids bases may become
essential nutrients for optimum tissue repair and
function
• Glycine, Serine, Aspartic Acid, Glutamine
Nucleic Acids : Food & Supplementation
So why doesn’t
everyone just take a
giant nucleic acid pill?
Orally ingested nucleic acids undergo intensive
metabolic degradation in upper GI tract
• Over 99% of purine bases oxidized to uric acid before
entering portal circulation
• About 95% of pyrimidines are metabolized before
leaving intestinal lining
• Only 3% of ingested pyrimidines reach liver

Extensive experimental and clinical evidence for
benefit from nucleotide supplementation
• Increased survival in mice with Staph aureus
bacteremia from 21% to 71%
• Significantly increased survival in mice with
Candida sepsis – greater effect with parenteral
nucleotides than oral administration
• Survival in animals with high dose radiation
exposure increased from 5% to 50%
• Single injection of RNA in mice post tumor
immunization improved outcome from 0% to 40%
long term survival
• Rate of liver regeneration in rats post 70%
hepatectomy significantly greater if IV nucleic acid
bases given
• In young rats with chronic diarrhea, appearance and
enzyme function of intestine greatly improved
• Improved growth and maturation in young animals
• Infants given formula supplemented with nucleotides
to mimic content of breast milk showed more
benevolent intestinal flora an less diarrhea (50 times
more nucleic acids in breast milk vs. formula which is
significant in developing countries)
• Supplemented infants had better lipid profiles with
higher HDL cholesterol
• Significant improvement in human cellular immune
function
• Significant improvement in memory in animals and
humans
• Accelerated wound healing

Direct antitumor effects (RNA nucleotide) specifically
incubation with ATP breast and prostate cancer
• Synergistic antitumor effects in conjunction with
chemotherapy – in vitro studies suggest up to 90%
dose reduction possible for certain cell types
• IV ATP has halted progression of tumor cachexia
(advanced cancer with rapid weight loss)
50 mcg/kg/minute x 24 hours x 3 weeks
• Protection of tissues from radiation injury
• Increased natural killer cell function
• Survival of patients in ICU for shock (multi-organ
failure) increased from 70% to 100%
