AUTOPHAGY 'to eat thyself.' Baby Boomers endured the most abuse from the medical establishment over the last 40 years. Before it’s too late, the medical establishment might have a few years to redeem some of the atrocious recommendations that your generation lived were given. The science of how the body eats itself is something you should pay attention to and master.

Autophagy removes debris found inside your body’s cells. All those years of poorly fed brain cells, sleep deprived hearts, smoking in your early years, and becoming fatter than any generation before has left you with lots of crusty cells. The debris within your tissue has been there for years. If you are overweight, this debris has been around for as long as those extra pounds have insulated you. PLUS ten years.

Reference: The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2016 - Yoshinori Ohsumi for his discoveries of mechanisms for autophagy.
