Show Notes
Scientists have launched the Dog Aging Project, enrolling over fifty thousand dogs, to study aging and find ways to slow it down. Dogs, due to their faster aging process and shared environments with humans, make perfect study subjects. Early results show that dogs living with others get fewer diseases, and lack of exercise raises dementia risk. A pilot study tested rapamycin on dogs with cognitive issues, revealing less brain inflammation in treated ones. Biotech firm Loyal is developing drugs aiming for an extra healthy year in senior dogs, with FDA backing. These efforts could unlock insights for human longevity too.
