The Influence of Chronic Inflammation on the Hallmarks of Aging
Chronic inflammation is a feature of aging, a continual activation of the immune response without any triggering injury or infection. Many different mechanisms contribute to this state of unresolved inflammatory signaling: the accumulation of senescent cells and the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP); mitochondrial dysfunction leading to mislocalized mitochondrial DNA that triggers an innate immune reaction; signaling from visceral fat cells in those who are overweight; changes in the gut microbiome and intestinal barrier that allow microbes and microbial metabolites to provoke the immune system; and so on an...

Rationing Health Care
Lately we ' ve touched upon the absurd cost of medical services in the U.S. -- we spend twice as much as the next biggest spender and three or four times as much as others -- and we ' re less healthy for it. There are a few reasons for this, but here I ' m going to touch the third rail.In the United States, in contrast to other nations, if the FDA approves a treatment, insurance has to pay for it. The FDA does not consider cost, but only whether there is evident of clinical benefit that outweighs risks or (non-financial) harms. The definition of benefit and harm, and how to value them, is of course far from obvious, but we...

Psychedelic Science 2023 – Full Conference Review
In June I attended the Psychedelic Science 2023 conference at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver. We were told this was the largest psychedelic-related gathering in the history of the planet, attracting about 12,000 attendees and 500 speakers.

BY MICHAEL MILLENSON In the 18th-century, a pre-Google guide offered democratization of medical information In 1767, as American colonists’ protestations against “taxation without representation” intensified, a Boston publisher reprinted a book by a British doctor seemingly tailor-made for the growing spirit of independence. Talk about “democratization of health care information,” “participatory medicine” and “health citizens”! Every Man His Own Physician, by Dr. John Theobald, bore an impressive subtitle: Being a complete collection of efficacious and approved remedies for every disease...
