Medical research into longevity points not only to delaying frailty (still a good outcome) but a compression of morbidity, a shortening of time spent suffering from diseases.
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.

Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
what I think is much more interesting and much more important is reducing or compressing the period of morbidity late in life and what I think people should fixate on is how do I not be really really frail both physically and cognitively in the last decade of my life
