Gompertz is an exponential increase in mortality.

It’s quite an interesting finding that “Among all tissues examined, the aorta aged fastest and most dramatically.” I wonder why this would be the case as compared to other tissues.

The study suggests that aging isn’t so much linear and that it unfolds in phases… times when large-scale aging takes place. If this is correct, it again makes me wonder why this would be the case.

Is anyone doing anything to keep their cardiac tissue healthy in particular, outside of the usual items like maintaining a great lipid profile, great BP, good exercise conditioning, etc.
