If you’ve ever cooked with kalonji (Nigella sativa) seeds — or seen tiny black seeds studded on naan — you’ve already met black seed. For over 2,000 years, healers across the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia have used its oil for everyday aches, breathing troubles, skin flare-ups, and digestive support. Today, modern research is starting to catch up, exploring how compounds in black seed oil might support metabolic, immune, skin, and respiratory health. (PMC, Cleveland Clinic)

State of the Art
State of the Art Longevity Ecosystems for the 21st and 22nd Centuries Prologue Fathering radical life extension studies is a monumental and extremely important task for me. I have explored ideas concerning radical life extension for 15 years, following the tragic death of a classmate and track team member. Aubrey de Grey and Ray Kurzweil were my “cyber-mentors” throughout the process of learning about the topic. De Grey helped me understand cellular aging, and Kurzweil helped me understand the exponential growth of technology. These technical experts weren’t the only to offer guidance. I learned quite a lot from Ernest Becker’s 20th century ideas about mortality salience and how death is so central to human civilization. Various professors, journalists, freelance video bloggers, and others also introduced me to transhumanism, the Kardashev scale, and interesting ideas about population control. Even after completing my education at Emory University, conducting neuroscience experiments at some of the nation's most reputable laboratories, co-teaching some biology courses, and learning other interesting, futurist ideas in the field of biology; I still kept my desire to study radical life extension in spite of it not even being a formal field. Thus, the following work is a continuation of my attempt to fully establish the field of radical life extension studies.

5-MTHF: The Only Folate Your Body Can Truly Use
Folate is one of those vitamins everyone has heard of but few people truly understand. It’s routinely mentioned in prenatal care, listed on cereal boxes, and added to multivitamins, yet most people—including many in healthcare—don’t realize that the form they consume can make all the difference. The reality is that most of the folate you find in supplements and fortified foods is not the biologically active form your body actually uses. Instead, you’re usually getting folic acid, a synthetic compound that has to go through several biochemical conversions before your cells can benefit from it. If anything in that chain of reactions fails, the result is functional folate deficiency—even if your diet is technically “adequate.”
