It is approved for patients with diabetes because you can't get something approved as a general anti-aging drug.

It's going to be a really interesting 20 years-- there's a good chance anti-aging technology could remake society.

First, the overlap between the anti-aging and anti-death community and the effective altruism community is pretty large.

Not wanting to contribute to a goal another might have is fine, nobody should be forcing you to contribute to anti-aging research or experimentation.

The whole idea of anti-aging is for individuals to live longer.

I'm all in favour of funding for anti-aging research if the money gets taken out of our beer and circuses budget.
