Curing cataract without the need for surgery
Cataract is an age-related visual problem that is caused by excessive free
radical damage. Unfortunately free radicals are toxic by-products of everyday
metabolism. As we age the production
of these free radicals increases, and
at the same time the body’s defences
against them becomes less effective. As a result, free radicals destroy
proteins, enzymes and DNA causing
chronic damage to your tissues.
This process is called oxidation, but
there is another important process
implicated in the formation of cataract, called glycation. This is a process
whereby sugar and similar molecules
attack your proteins and DNA, causing
abnormal chemical bonds between
individual molecules. Free radicals
then make matters worse by facilitating this destruction of your tissues. In
the end, there is an increased amount
of abnormal, twisted and deformed
proteins in your body, worsening the
risk of developing age-related chronic
conditions.
In the case of the eye, these deformed
proteins can cause visual impairment
through cataract, (and indeed also
through macular degeneration or glaucoma).
What is cataract?
Cataract is a common age-related
condition that affects 1 in 4 people
over the age of 65. It is caused when
the proteins inside the lens of the eye
(called crystallins) become damaged.
Glycation is the main culprit here, it
causes the crystallins to bind to each
other and become misshapen, forming
opaque plaques in the lens of the eye.
As a result, light cannot pass properly
through the lens and so vision is impaired. The word cataract is Greek and
means waterfall, thus a severe cataract
may look like trying to peer through a
waterfall.
In summary, cataract develops on
a background of both oxidation and
glycation. It is logical to assume that in
order to prevent, or even reverse this
that cataract may be cured without the
need to resort to an operation.
Anti-glycators to the rescue
Apart from carnosine, other good antiglycators are the agents pyridoxamine
and aminoguanidine. Both work to
reduce the risk of glycation of proteins
within the lens of the eye and thus prevent the harm caused to the proteins of
the lens. By helping to improve microcirculation of the blood in the eye these
can be useful both in macular degeneration and glaucoma.
damage, it is necessary to use a combination of chemicals which work both
against oxidation and glycation.
The remarkable natural molecule
called N-acetylcarnosine
The most recent development in the
prevention of age-related eye diseases
is the nutrient N-acetyl-carnosine
(NAC). This natural chemical is closely
related to the natural dipeptide (meaning two aminoacids linked together)
carnosine. Carnosine has been investigated extensively and there are over
1000 scientific reports discussing its
biological actions and safety.
NAC works by preventing free radical damage and reducing the risk of
glycation, but NAC is particularly useful
within the eye because it remains biologically active for longer. Once inside
the eye tissues NAC transforms into
pure carnosine and prevents free radicals from further destroying eye tissues
such as the crystallins. It also reverses
glycation, in other words, it may be useful in curing already existing cataracts.
Indeed, clinical trials conducted in Russia have highlighted the fact that NAC
eye-drops such as Can-C™ when used
regularly over a period of 3-5 months
can halt and even reverse cataract!
As such these eye-drops are a very
important discovery- because it shows
The by-products of glycation (called
AGEs) are frequently found in several
parts of the eye. Thus, antiglycators
such as carnosine, pyridoxamine and
aminoguanidine can fool nature by
reducing AGEs before these have the
chance to combine with the receptors
and affect the eye.
It may not be enough to only use one
remedy in order to prevent or even
reverse chronic eye conditions. Using
additional supplements will ensure
that you are getting the extra insurance
necessary to keep free radical action
at low levels and reduce the risk of further harm to the eyes. The following are
some relevant nutritional factors that
may also have a role to play in improving vision.
Ginkgo Biloba
Ginkgo is used in order to improve
memory and blood circulation problems. It is also a very good antioxidant.
However, many people buy the ‘raw
leaf’ preparation of ginkgo which may
not contain a standard amount of the
active ingredients. It is best to use a
standardised extract.
Ginkgo can protect against cataract by
reducing the injury caused by oxidation
on the lens of the eye. It turns out that
ginkgo increases antioxidant enzymes
which makes it less likely that free radicals caused by radiation, (such as UV
for example) can damage the lens.

Grape Seed
It is well known that both grapes and
their seeds contain antioxidants such
as flavonoids. These are strong natural
chemicals with antioxidant power up to
20 times more than vitamin E and 50
times more than vitamin C. Flavonoids
from grape seeds help to protect the
eyes from UV radiation and to improve
overall vision.
Vinpocetine
Although vinpocetine is a well known
brain booster, it has also a role to play
in preventing chronic eye conditions,
particularly if used in combinations
with other supplements.
Nutritional supplements such as
vinpocetine improve blood circulation.
Scientists have found that vinpocetine
can improve optic nerve atrophy
caused by head injury and improve the
sensitivity of the retina and protect the
optic nerve, (which transmits visual
signals from the eye to the brain). Also,
it improves blood flow within the arteries of the eye- which means that more
nutrients could reach vital eye tissues.
Lutein and zeaxanthin
The two best known supplements for
eye protection are the carotenoids
lutein and zeaxanthin. There is quite
a lot of scientific evidence confirming
that consumption of these two chemicals reduces the risk of age-related
cataract. Lutein and zeaxanthin are
the only two carotenoids present in
the lens, and their role is to protect the
lens against free radicals caused by UV
radiation from the sun.
Others
Apart from vitamins and nutrients, it is
also necessary to protect your eyes in
other ways. For example, avoid strong
sunlight which facilitates free radical
reactions within the eye. Instead, wear
good quality sunglasses, particularly
if you live in a place where sunshine
is strong. Wearing a hat is also a good
idea, as it cuts down some of the harmful UV radiation reaching your eyes.
Frequent eye tests will pick up any early
signs of eye disease and will give you
the chance of starting or modifying
your prevention nutritional programme.
If you have diabetes, are a smoker or
have a family history of chronic eye disease, then prevention therapy becomes
even more important.

The Antiageing Island
We all know the British radio show where
guests are told they
are going to be stuck
on a remote island and
they can only bring a
few things along with
them. Then they have
to explain why they chose those things.
Here we will play the same game a little
differently! We will ask leading antiageing professionals what few things they
would bring to their island to help them
fight against the ravages of ageing! (By
the way, the island gets plenty of sunshine, has numerous exercise possibilities and is full of fresh organic produce,
fish & game and pure water!)
Today it’s Walter Pierpaoli, M.D.
• Born Milan in 1934
• Graduated in medicine and holds a
PhD in immunology.
• He has his own research laboratory
and Institute for Integrative Biomedical Research as well as the foundation for basic biomedical research in
Zurich.
• Is the Director of the Jean Choay
institute for neuroimmunomodulation in Riva San Vitale
• He is author of over 130 publications
on referenced scientific journals and
the organizer of the Stromboli Conferences on Aging and Cancer.
• Plus he has also published popular books including the; “Melatonin
Miracle” which has been translated
into 15 languages and a New York
Times bestseller.
BLS: Dear Walter, what is it you are
bringing to your island?
WP: That’s an easy answer for me- it’s
melatonin of course!
BLS: Please explain why that is an
easy choice for you?
WP: Quite simply because it is the most
universal molecule we’ve ever come
across. In essence it’s a molecule that
protects us from ageing.
BLS: So where does it come from?
WP: It is produced in the pineal gland
in the brain; it is also produced in some
other parts of the body; however I do
not consider it to be a hormone per
se. It is a special molecule that existed
before life began and has been put to a
unique role.
BLS: What do you consider its primary
function to be?
WP: To protect the pineal from ageing
and to allow the pineal to manufacture
other chemicals that rebalance the
entire hormone system, thus bringing
order to the circadian cycle, the daynight cyclicity that governs our ageing. An easy way to think of this is to
imagine the pineal as the conductor of
an orchestra (the hormones). Without a
conductor the orchestra makes noise,
with a conductor it makes music.
BLS: I know you have performed lot
of animal and human research with
melatonin, what sort of outcomes
have you seen?
WP: Once the sleep cycles and the
endocrine system come back into
harmony there are many miraculous
benefits. Our patients have conquered
“Melatonin protects
us from ageing”
their cancers, Alzheimer’s, cardiovascular disease, depression and of course
their ageing. Also I want to mention
that a recent trial has highlighted that
melatonin can halt and even reverse
age related macular degenerationwhich is the leading cause of vision
disorders in the elderly.
BLS: How can you be so sure that
ageing is reversed too?
WP: We conducted an experiment with
mice, taking the old pineal gland out
of an old mouse and putting it into a
young mouse, at the same time we
took out the young pineal from the
young mouse and placed it into the old
mouse. The young mouse aged quickly
and the old mouse became young!
We have published this information in
medical journals and presented it as
numerous conferences.
BLS: It’s a wonder why this hasn’t
become widely known?
news
Diesel fumes increase the risk of
heart disease
Recently scientists
have discovered that
diesel contaminants
breathed in from the air react with
fats in the body to switch on genes
that cause inflammation to blood
vessels.
WP: There are many forces and dogmas against preventative medicine,
especially in old Europe which seems
to be set against the widespread use
of melatonin, unlike the USA and some
other countries where it can be purchased freely.
BLS: What about safety with melatonin?
WP: It is very safe indeed, the regular
dose is 3 mg before bedtime, yet one
study gave women 300 mg for a year,
100 times the normal dose and yet no
significant side effects or contradictions were recorded.
BLS: You mentioned earlier that the
wake/ sleep cycle governs our ageing, does this mean that you believe
in a pre-programmed limit to life?
WP: In a way the answer is yes, but the
point is that melatonin resets the clock,
literally turning back the hands of time.
It gives us more time and perhaps
more importantly it gives us better
health with that time.
BLS: Do you think that you will be
able to describe this concept in a
future book?
WP: I hope to publish this as the rotation theory of ageing.
BLS: We wish you more power to your
elbow Walter and good luck with
everything you are doing.
WP: Thank you and I hope that the fine
message you are trying to cry out in
the UK with the BLS- that there are real
proven alternative health treatments, is
a great success too.
The study was published in the
journal Genome Biology and its lead
researcher Dr André Nel commented;
“Their combination [diesel and LDL
cholesterol] creates a dangerous
synergy that wreaks cardiovascular
havoc.”
Dr Nel went on to state; “Exactly how
air pollutants cause cardiovascular
injury is poorly understood, but we do
know that these particles are coated
with chemicals that damage tissue
and cause inflammation of the nose
and lungs. Vascular inflammation in
turn leads to cholesterol deposits and
clogged arteries, which can give rise
to blood clots that trigger heart attack
or stroke.”
The advice of the British Heart Foundation was that anyone with chronic
lung disease or coronary heart
disease should avoid staying outside
for long periods when pollution levels
are high.
The BLS thinks that this is yet another
indicator of how “everyday” pollutants
are contributing to accelerating ageing and exacerbating various diseases. The obvious solutions apart from
“cleaning up our act as a society”
(which let’s be honest is going to take
a very long time), is to also seek out
regular (probably life long) detox and
chelation therapies to ensure that
we have the lowest possible levels of
toxins inside of us. We hope to report
more on these types of therapies in
future issues, please stay informed by
subscribing to the BLS today.
A new drug
is a novel aid
to help stop
smoking
Frankly we
believe at the
BLS that it should be obvious to its
members not to abuse their bodies
with things such as excessive alcohol, narcotics and smoking etc., but
once in a while we believe it’s worth
discussing items that may help “kick
the habit” to help those who want to
quit- but are having difficulty.
Varenicline (trade name Champix) is
the first non-nicotine drug developed
specifically to help smokers give up
for good. Now that the smoking ban
in public places is law across the United Kingdom it has
become apparent to
many smokers that
apart from damaging
their own health and
the health of others,
being a social outcast
is yet another good reason to stop!
The new Pfizer drug Varenicline is
unusual in that it both stimulates and
blocks specific nicotinic receptors in
the brain. Through this mechanism it
is believed that the stimulation to the
receptors mimics nicotine to reduce
cravings, plus the partial blocking
produces a weaker response for the
will to smoke.
The clinical trials indicated that after
a 12-week course of Varenicline 44%
of smokers quit. These are impressive
figures especially when compared to
those on placebo (18% quit) or 30%
quitting on another anti-smoking
drug- Bupropion.
A spokesperson for NICE said: “Having looked at all the evidence, our independent committee has concluded
that Varenicline appears to be a good
way to help people who want to quit
smoking.”

Positive Stress May Be Healthy
periods of intermittent fasting, irregular eating times and unusual items in
the diet, such as exotic fruit, game, or
uncommon nuts.
Most people don’t know that mild and
repeated stimulation or stress build-up
our defences against ageing.
Examples of stimulation or challenges
which may show benefit include:
•Dietary restriction.
•Physical and mental exercise.
•Social and spiritual stimulation.
Scientists know that specific and mild
stress or stimulation such as radiation,
heat or cold can cause mild damage
to the organism. This stress activates
the repair processes which try to mend
this damage and at the same time any
age-related damage that happens to
“mild positive stress
is called hormesis”
exist, is also repaired. This type of mild
positive stress is called hormesis and
whilst little is known about its effects
on humans there is new research that
shows promising results.
Hormesis and human ageing
A well known example of hormesis is
caloric (or dietary) restriction, to date
this is the only intervention that has repeatedly and consistently been shown
to increase lifespan in all animals studied. Caloric restriction is a nutritional
challenge to the body; it improves
several biochemical factors such as
cholesterol, insulin, hormones and immune proteins. Some doctors believe
that nutritional stress could also be
achieved by following an ever-changing
dietary routine with variable amounts
eaten at different, irregular intervals
throughout the day. They advise to have
BLS Newsletter 1 : Page 4
With regards to mild brain stress,
several examples of anti-aging mental
exercises can be given. Over the past
10 years we, at the British Longevity
Society, have been recommending
specific mental, sense and memory
exercises as a way of counteracting
some of the effects of age on the brain.
These exercises cause hormetic events
which may have a positive impact on
the prevention or delay of age-related
mental problems such as dementia
and memory problems by:
•Improving nerve
growth factors to
cause better binding
of neurotransmitters
to the brain cells.
•Increasing sensitivity of brain stem
cells.
•Reducing abnormal
and early death of
brain cells.
Examples of physical
stimulation
Day 1:
30 minutes tai chi
in the morning and
20 minutes ballroom
dancing in the evening
Day 2:
Go for a 20 minute
brisk walk and then do
15 minutes yoga.
Day 3:
Play football or other ball games for 30
minutes in the afternoon.
Day 4:
No exercise, just follow your everyday
routine.
Day 5:
Try a new sport such as horse-riding,
fencing or rowing.
Day 6:
To the gym for 20-25 minutes of weight
lifting.
Day 7:
Aerobics for 30 minutes, followed by
yoga.
Day 8:
No exercise, but keep generally
active.
Examples of mental exercises
•Choose a controversial subject and
argue the side opposite to your own
opinion.
•Try listening to unusual music, such
as traditional oriental songs.
•Tune into a foreign language radio
station and try to guess the general
meaning of the programme.
•For about 5-10 minutes, read a
magazine holding it upside down. To
make the exercise more difficult, hold
it upside down in front of a mirror and
read from the mirror image.
•For 5-10 minutes a day use your nondominant hand to write something.
•Read a magazine or newspaper that
you do not usually read.
•Difficult Exercises (doing two/ three
demanding things at once).
E.g.: Listen to music while surfing the
internet AND using a grip exerciser on
the other hand. Play table tennis while
listening to music AND arguing the
side opposite to your own opinion.
Use your non-dominant to write a
paragraph while blindfolded (and
chatting about something else).
Examples of social and spiritual stimulation
•Do not accept easy answers or expla
nations; always look for the real rea
son behind each event or situation.
•Strengthen your social bonds, friend
ships and family ties.
•Explore other religions.
•Explore aspects of your own religion
which you have not considered in the
past.
Long in the Tooth
By Brian Halvorsen, BDS
Is type-III diabetes the trigger
for Alzheimer’s
disease?
The most common
disease in the world is
gum disease (periodontitis) and is the principle
cause of tooth loss in
the 40 years and above
age group.
Historically, Stone Age humans were
only afflicted with dental disease when
they started cooking their food. So
as we have become more ‘civilised’,
especially in a dietary sense, our dental
health has deteriorated. Without preventative measures such as visiting the
dentist/ hygienist, tooth brushing etc,
and dietary/ supplemental modifications the majority of us will suffer from
age related gum disease.
The good news is that gum disease
and subsequent tooth loss is entirely
preventable. As we, on average, are
expected to live longer, dental health is
“Without preventative measures...the
majority of us will
suffer from age
related gum
disease”
increasing becoming an important factor in our general health and wellbeing.
Periodontal (gum) disease has been
linked to circulatory and heart disease,
diabetes, certain cancers, autoimmune
diseases and liver disorders. Holistically, it’s a ‘chicken and egg’ situation.
Is the gum disease an indication of a
body dysfunction, or are the bacteria,
inflammatory products and toxins produced by the gum disease the source
of the body disorders?
Poor nutrition, smoking and excessive
alcohol consumption are predisposing
factors to accelerate the progress of
gum disease. Periodontists (experts
in the treatment of gum disease) will
often refuse to treat patients who
continue to smoke because the treatment outcomes are seriously compromised. People who smoke are at least
10 times more likely to develop mouth
cancer and if they smoke and consume

condition whereby

type-II diabetes is a condition
whereby the patient uses an insulin stimulant such as a metformin
pill.
large amounts of alcohol, are 30 times
at risk!
Until the advanced stages, gum disease is rarely painful. Any bleeding of
the gums indicates gingivitis. Red and
swollen gums are more serious and
the attentions of a dentist are urgently
required. As a dentist I am often asked
if there is a genetic link to gum disease, as my patients’ parents had lost
their teeth to gum infections, often at a
young age. Although genetics is a factor, anyone should be able to keep their
teeth for life!
So what is the solution?
1. Find a preventative dentist, prefer
ably with a hygienist/ dental health
educator and attend regularly.
2. Home care– Use the advice from
above. We all have differing oral
hygiene requirements.
3. Boost your resistance to disease by
reducing your life stresses. Improve
your nutrition, emotional, environ
mental and physical aspects of your
lifestyle.
4. Both vitamin C and coenzyme Q10
(CoQ10) have been shown to have
specific health benefits for maintain
ing healthy gums.
Remember, there is no secret to having
healthy teeth and gums, or for that
matter a healthy mouth and a healthy
body.
Now scientists say they have found
a new form of diabetes. They have
discovered that insulin is produced
not only by the pancreas, but also
by the brain. This new form has
been dubbed type iii.
Although it is not thought to affect
blood sugar, type-III does affect
brain insulin levels and appears to
be linked with Alzheimer’s disease.
It has been known for some time
that people with diabetes have
a 65% increased risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease and that
diabetics have protein deposits
in their pancreas that are similar
to the protein deposits found in
the brain tissue of people with
Alzheimer’s disease.
In fact poorly controlled diabetes is
correlated with poorly functioning
memory and reduced brain activity
and now studies are highlighting
that insulin and its related growth
factors are vital for the survival
of brain cells. For if these factors
are not produced at normal levels,
the cells die and in the case of
Alzheimer’s, the cells that die are
located in the part of the brain
involved with memory- the hippocampus.
In a future issue of the BLS newsletter we shall also be reporting
on the role of excitotoxins and
how they may also be a trigger
for Alzheimer’s. Excitotoxins and
diabetes are both related through
nutrition and thus, other than toxins (particularly the accumulation
of mercury), Alzheimer’s may be
caused by long-term poor diet!

books
Here are some books we think will be of interest to our members
Title: The Melatonin Miracle
Author: Walter Pierpaoli, M.D.
Cost: £4.50
This remarkable introduction to melatonin was on the NY Times
best sellers list for many years. Whilst it is now about 10-years
old, it still offers a fascinating glimpse into the discovery of
melatonin and its antiageing properties. Those prepared to wait
a few months may like to know that Dr. Pierpaoli’s update; the
key of life- should be available before the end of 2007.
Title: Hormone Solution
Author: Thierry Hertoghe, M.D.
Cost: £12.95
This book is a step-by-step guide to what many hormones are
responsible for. Each one is evaluated for the signs to look for in
a patient, i.e. if a hormone is too high or too low, and the author
also explains the kinds of therapies that can be adopted. Plus
there are questionnaires to help you discover what you may be
lacking in the endocrine department!
Title: Life Extension
Author: Durk Pearson & Sandy Shaw
Cost: £6.00
Although this book was written in the mid 1980s (and its price
reflects its second hand price on Amazon), it still represents a
great insight into the whys and wherefores of what is trying to be
achieved in antiageing medicine. Many people feel that Pearson
and Shaw were pioneers of the industry and much of what is in
their book, in terms of protocols etc. are still valid today.
Title: Smart Drugs II (the next generation)
Author: Ward Dean, M.D.
Cost: £7.50
Following on from the author’s best seller Smart Drugs and
Nutrients, this book exposes more of the so-called off-label uses
of agents that can enhance memory and help to slow and retard
dementias. Antiageing medicine is made up of many novel substances and puts existing substances to alternative uses, hence
the smart drug series is useful in understand why this type of
approach is necessary for preventative needs.
Title: The Cataract Cure
Author: Marios Kyriazis, M.D.
Cost: £5.95
This book highlights the latest Russian eye-drop breakthrough
for the treatment and prevention of senile cataract. It is the
story of N-acetylcarnosine and it details how it can be used
to achieve the best results in order to avoid cataract surgery.
Other eye disorders including glaucoma, macular degeneration,
dry-eye syndrome are also discussed with a view to the types of
nutrition that are beneficial.
BLS Newsletter 1 : Page 6
The BLS will endeavour to list conferences that are relevant to antiageing and preventative medicine.
What is more, the BLS will shortly
be organising meetings composing of a short lecture with an open
discussion panel. We hope to be
able to hold such meetings every
3 months in London. All members
with e-mail addresses will be told
about these; we shall also place
details on the BLS website and in
the BLS newsletter.

of ageing) at the King’s College,
University of London. He is also a
Chartered Biologist for work in the
biology of ageing.
Who is the BLS for?
The British Longevity Society is for
individuals who want to live a longer,
healthier life. It is a forum for discussion, exchange of ideas and dissemination of information on how to avoid
premature ageing and how to keep an
active, healthy body and brain well into
a very old age.
What are the BLS intentions?
The BLS intends to inform the lay-person about the advances in this science
that are being published in the clinical journals every day. The BLS seeks
to inform in a way that everyone can
understand how these remarkable
new approaches are going to change
medicine and our understanding about
health forever.
What advantages are there to a BLS
membership?
As a member of the BLS you will receive 4 quality newsletters each year
(either by electronic or physical form)
that will be full of interesting information regarding antiageing/ preventative
medicine, all of which having been written by leading professionals in the field.
Furthermore, the BLS intends to
organise quarterly meetings in the UK,
beginning in London. BLS members
will be given priority to attend these
limited seating meetings. Each one will
have a speaker on a chosen topic and
afterward there will be an open forum
on healthy ageing. It is your opportunity
to meet with like minded people and
discuss your needs and opinions.
In addition, the BLS will be negotiating deals for its members with other
companies and organisations. This will
mean special offers and discounts on
a wide variety of health related goods
and services including nutrition, spa
and clinical treatments, conferences,
books and magazines etc.
How much does BLS membership
cost?
From as little as £14.95 a year for electronic newsletters sent to your email
address in PDF format.
