From acclaimed journalist Charge Gifford comes a roaring voyage in to the world of anti-aging science - a place filled with remarkable breakthroughs and dangerous deceptions. Spring Fowl: Stay Young Forever (Or Die Seeking) Spring Fowl is a full-throttle, high-energy drive through the latest research, popular mythology, and early wisdom on maturing and life expectancy - from lines and wrinkles and baldness down to the innermost workings of skin cells - that examines how humans might be able to live much longer, healthier lives. In his funny, self-deprecating words, veteran reporter Charge Gifford takes visitors into cutting-edge labs where researchers are working to attain miraculous breakthroughs, like purging "senescent" skin cells from mice to invert the effects of maturing. He'll show you what has happened with resveratrol, the "burgandy or merlot wine supplement" that made headlines a few years back, how your excess fat tissue is trying to kill you, and how soon doctors can suggest life-extending medications exclusively tailored for every single individual. Gifford separates the wheat from the chaff as he exposes hoaxes and scams foisted upon an aging modern culture and arms visitors with the best possible advice on how to proceed, what not to do, and what life-changing treatments may be right nearby. A mixture of deep reporting, interesting science, and prescriptive takeaway, this is an excellent examination of a general obsession: What you can do about getting old?
