| Why do people grow old? Why cannot you live in the state of 20 years old? Humans have been thinking about this subject during thousands of years, but we have not got a clear answer yet. Recently we found that aging may be explained by a simple biological event. It is the fact that mitochondria, an organ in the cell that produces energy, is the key to aging. Through changing the way of food intake, it may be possible to activate mitochondria. By considering these backgrounds, we aim at anti-aging by food intake and propose the way of food intake for anti-aging. |
