Reminder UV-associated photoaging is baseless pseudoscience peddled by the sunscreen industry, and the best evidence they have to offer is an n=1 of a single trucker, who was on a number of photosensitive and phototoxic drugs his entire life. There is no evidence or even sound speculative mechanism as to why UV exposure would cause damage, provided melanogenesis exceeds dose relative to burn exposure. You want good skin? Stay hydrated, avoid ethanol (responsible for lipofuscin deposits). A runaway dermatological microbiome does more damage to the skin, than moderate sun exposure, which would have prevented that problem in the first place. FUCK the sunscreen industry.

No reason to care for aging itself until you get of the non-aging cuases first.

First is magnesium deficiency. If you eat any modern diet, you are very likely magnesium deficient. Magnesium deficiency causes a wide range of ailments, much of which are blamed on aging.

Neurological disorders. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6024559/

Cardiovascular diseases and others: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5786912/

Thymic involution and cancer: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF00402054

and many others, including osteoporosis, high cortisol levels, etc.

Iron accumulation causes neurological disorders and brain damage. https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnagi.2018.00065/full This may be the actual mechanism of how caloric restriction works: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2898557/


Calcium overload makes the effects of magnesium deficiency worse, depletes magnesium and is made worse by low magnesium.


Other minor mineral may cotribute. Low copper levels may contribute to alzheimers and cognitive decline. Molybdenum is necessary in several enzymes needed for waste removal. Both copper and manganese are needed to prevent oxidative damage through superoxide dismutase.

It depends what kind of skin you have; if you're white, just don't go out in the sun; limit your exposure as much as possible; don't think clothing is 100% protection either, UV can pierce certain fabrics easily. I've worn those cheap white cotton tshirts that come several to a bag in the underwear aisle on the beach before, you WILL get burned through those. If your skin tans, good for you, you're lucky, you can slowly build up color by limiting your UV exposure. A lot of white people can't even build up tans without risking burns.

Masturbate frequently. No, really. Jerking off 2 times daily keeps your testosterone levels lower; as a result, you will age more slowly, your body hair will be less dense, and your skin will be better. Problem is if you want the full effect you have to start doing it immediately when puberty hits. The lower testosterone levels during the formative years will make you basically a perma-teen (genetics probably plays a role as well, no guarantees). This is not confirmed science, just a theory of mine. I am 32 years old, but people still mistake me for a 17 year old when I go out. I look exactly like my father when he was young, but when HE was 32, he looked his age.

Now look up the UV blocking effects of a sufficient amount of melanin, you brainlet, which is accrued with cumulative moderate sun-exposure. It has very similar UV blocking effects. Mutanogensis only occurs with burning
>The fact that UV rays are harmful and directly cause cancer and aging is irrefutable.
Where is your evidence? This is only demonstrated with direct burning. These monographs you listed are a series of literature reviews, poor ones, paired with UV rated protections for various sunscreens.
>Sunscreen helps prevent this beyond a shadow of a doubt.
No kidding it insofar as it blocks harmful burns (a tan is not a burn) but so does melanin pigmentation which is more than sufficient with cumulative exposure for virtually all mainland Europeans, a majority of nords even. Only redheads, very fair blue-eyed, light blond with freckled skin (say Estonians, Finnish) would need this extreme protection. This protection itself is not harmless, often predisposes the regular wearer to extreme burns when without it because he has no baseline level of protect and Vitamin D deprivation. Moreover, the agents used, especially non-mineral, can be toxic to the kidneys and brain.
>Saying anything else is beyond being a tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy theorist.
False dilemma and guilt by association. Very low IQ.
>>10815275
Norway gets comparatively little yet has very high rates of melanoma per capita. This is because of intermittent exposure and sudden burning, often worsened because someone was led to believe any sun exposure was harmful, wore an excessive amount of the stuff, and one day was caught with out it.

Moderate sun exposure and having a healthy baseline amount of melanin not only protects against burns but is healthy for the individual. The photosynthesis of Vitamin D reduces cholesterol. Sun exposure raises testosterone. There numerous other photocatalyzed reactions, products of evolving under the sun. Sun, in moderation, is good.

Wasting your semen, instead of reabsorbing is not a good idea. It's genuinely like saying just bleed out on the floor for an hour everyday to prevent aging. Your body is going to be working overtime to get back the nutrients you lost. This is not a good way to prevent aging.

Lysosomes should be easy to fix. It's merely a matter of figuring out what enzymes can break down the debris that our lysosomes can't, and figuring out how to transport large amounts of these enzymes into our own cells.

It appears that high molybdenum intake could cause copper deficiency, as well as possibly gout (but that may be combined with another deficiency) so care need to be taken with supplementation.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but won't you die when your telomeres get short and the cell starts to take damage either way? I feel like you'd have a hard cap of 1.5-2 centuries even if you were perfectly healthy and never got a scratch, just from genetic damage.

There’s no such thing as a healthy tan, sport. Tanning is your body reacting to radiation damage.

It's an evolutionary adaptation from living countless millennium under the sun, it isn't reacting to damage, it is reacting to UV exposure and pigmentation to prevent damage from successive and further doses, which invariably would occur to a species living under the sun without any further means of protection. There is such a thing as a healthy tan, otherwise the body would have no means of utilizing photocatalyzed reactions. Notice how you try to use cheap rhetorical techniques with your false equivalences, absolute black and white thinking, and extreme emotional undertone. In other words, a brainlet.

Ironically, UVA and UVB are both non ionizing radiation too so thanks for further bolstering my point and putting yourself in his ranks by screaming m-muh unhealthy at any amount of exposure! Most of the history of mankind has been under the sun and it performs many vital functions and is very prophylactic for preventing a number of dermatological conditions, especially acne, and is very therapeutic for psoriasis.

The sun clearly does damage the skin in some capacity though. Sunburn isn't just from heat, it's from the UV nature of sunlight. When cells are damaged, they have to multiply and regenerate, this causes ageing in whatever organ is being regenerated, in this case the skin. Obviously sunburn is an extreme case but really any amount of sun exposure is going to cause some amount of damage which needs to be regenerated. Why do you think humans in high UV areas have evolved dark skin (yes I know the first humans had dark skin but they did have to evolve that feature at some point). It's because sunlight is harmful, simple as.

I'm not gonna peddle avoiding sunlight entirely but saying that sun doesn't age the skin is honestly just not true. It's just common sense.

The adaption of tanning is a response by the body to prevent damage when it encounters a higher UV environment than the one it usually exists in. There is no reason that tanning or dark skin ever would have evolved if UV did not cause damage. If you are tanning it is a sign that you are at least taking some damage since your skin does not currently have enough pigment to protect you. Sure, once you get dark enough for your given environment you probably don't need to worry, but in the meantime damage is being done.

No, it's more like summer and winter fur. It's genetic if you tan or not. You can be very white and tan or brown and not tan.

>> No.10827498

>>10827427
Summer and winter fur are also adaptions meant to protect against changing environmental conditions, but fur is moreso for cold temperatures than it is for anything to do with UV. Tanning is the same. You tan in the summer to protect yourself against the suns rays. Yes there is a genetic element, but you will only tan if exposed to sunlight or other UV light. If you spend the entirety of the summer indoors and in shade, you won't tan. You can even tan in the winter if the sun is out enough and you go out in it. So tanning is certainly more of an on the fly adaptation to current environmental conditions than anything else.
>It's genetic if you tan or not. You can be very white and tan or brown and not tan.
Most people do tan to a degree. Very brown people might not tan as much because there is no need for them to do so, since their skin has the long term adaption of high melanin levels due to longterm evolutionary changes. White people have more of a need to tan if they go into a more UV exposed environment, and of course tanning on a white person is more noticeable. Inability to tan is pretty rare and is a form of albinism, a genetic defect, since this ability is actually pretty important for most humans on Earth.

I guess what I am rambling about is that tanning is a genetic but it is also a real time adaption to whatever level of UV you are currently exposed to. If the body decides to tan it is because you are in an environment that the body detects has a high level of UV. It is very likely that if you are tanning you are also accumulating cellular damage, which is why the body needs to react fast in order to protect itself against the sunrays.

wrong, testosterone is necessary for a healthy life and deficiency is associated with a lot of diseases, aside from just the lower quality of life you will get as it saps energy and in effect the amount of life you live in a year.
