@mortein:
"Yeah, that seems to be a direction in which things tend to move, but there is no reason why "LIFE -----> DEATH" couldn't be "LIFE ---------------------------------------------> DEATH", and there's no reason why this arrow couldn't be indefinitely long, and why we couldn't keep on expanding it, basically increasing our expected lifespan by more than one year per year.
Granted, it's unlikely that we'll live infinity long, but that's not a reason to do nothing."
I have already said that you can extend the lifespan of bodies and MOST ASSUREDLY YOU CAN. That is what we should be trying to do utilizing the CORRECT methods but YOU CANNOT HAVE AN IMMORTAL BODY, NOR CAN YOU "CURE" AGING which is the topic of this thread. Aging is not a disease or error to be expunged or corrected; it is LAWFUL Universal process.
"I think this is ancient Chinese symbol which represents a struggle between two opposite, but complementary forces, which is supposed to be analogous to the way our universe works, or something like that. I'm no expert on these things."
The Yin Yang symbol is an ancient Eastern depiction of the universal principle of DUALITY, which is the driving force of this Universe and its backbone, EVERYTHING IS SEX DIVIDED. EVERYTHING IS A POLARITY. The Universe is founded on the principle of
BALANCED INTERCHANGE BETWEEN PAIRS OF OPPOSING OPPOSITES.

Just like the previous comment you get the picture.
"Interesting hypothesis. When and how was it tested, and what were the results?"
Its been tested since eternity and has had the same results and continues to have the same results and will ALWAYS have the same results.
But jeez, I wonder what the MAGNETIC FIELD surrounding our bodies means? There's a reason the terms Magnetism and Electricity have been joined into a single word --Electro-magnetism. Where there's one, you're surely going to find the other.
And Fizzicists have SPURNED Electricity if you still haven't noticed yet. So you won't find any research and tests by modern Fizzicists in this capacity.
Gravity does all the work, right? Oh, Oh and your STRONG and WEAK Nuclear forces.
"When I talk about aging, I'm talking about the accumulation of molecular and cellular damage as a side effect of the normal operations of our metabolism, which starts before we are even born. If you think that the word aging better describes some other phenomenon, then I could just use some other word to describe the accumulation of damage while talking to you, like Senescence. Would that work with you?"
Whatever you say.
