The above articles are not at all convincing. They are also hosted at sites that have a vested interest in selling you weird shit to put in your body that will supposedly make you live longer.

I'm going to eat my vegetables, go to the gym, and pass on the weird shit.

Clearly you didn't click though, much less go on to read the scientific papers linked from those posts. Fight Aging! is a science blog. It reports on published research and advocates more research into aging and longevity. The only thing it's selling is the idea you should give more money than you are presently giving to research efforts like Aubrey de Grey's SENS.

Really, it just illustrates how ridiculous and poisoned the cultural environment has become surrounding fat, aging, and research that someone would knee-jerk the remark above.
