According to this study which analysed proteins in blood: Stanford scientists reliably predict people’s age by measuring proteins in blood
This would strongly point at programmed aging, rather than driven strictly by metabolism, no?
As much as I appreciate Ray's work and agree with his methods to increase metabolism and health, I can't see how aging is not programmed and therefore a different intervention is needed to really extend lifespan..
There are animals which do not seem to age, apparently lobsters are getting more virile with age and do not show signs of aging, but at some point they can't grow their shell to the needed size anymore. Does that mean that lobsters have perfect metabolism? I don't think so.
If it wasn't programmed surely we would see more variation than just a hard stop at 120 years.
