    Growth Hormone Receptor Deficiency Is Associated with a Major Reduction in Pro-Aging

    Has anyone read the article in the NY Times "Ecuadorean Villagers May Hold Secret to Longevity". It basically goes on to say these villagers live longer, have no cancer or diabetes and it's directly related to very low IGF-1 levels.

    Here is a link to the article:

    Here is a link to the study:

    I read a study done about longevity of residents living in Okinawa, Japan. The average villager lived well beyond 100 years. The theory was the simple farm life including the diet a raw veggies and little meat and regular exercise in the fields. The researchers also found that the community living, where neighbors were concerned for one another, built and emotional bonding to the villages which led to emotional stability. The people who lived there were poor but lived contented and long lives. The two studies above were also interesting.
