NO AGING GENES. “Many confuse aging with longevity determination, which is indirectly driven by genes. There are no genes for aging. There are genes to maintain the biological functionality of an organism up to and including reproductive success. There is no mechanism that immediately causes death after reproductive maturation; it’s too costly. Longevity determination asks ‘Why do we live as long as we do?’ Aging research asks ‘Why does everything ultimately fail?’ and that is a huge difference.”
