What yu really need to do is unblock your orgone energies; I've heard wonderful things about the Q-Ray and 'Ionised Water'. If your short on that,
Colloidal silver worked miracles on my friend Vlad and I can also testify to the wonders of Bonnore's Electro Magnetic Bathing Fluid. Also it
helps to replace all of your olive, canola and other oils with good old fashion Viper-Oil. Look for some with a 3% EPA rating. (Not EPA as in animal
protection, I mean Eicosapentaenoic acid).
For me, it's not a question of how long you can live; It's a question of how much you can live. Sleeping less of course benefits neither. Im a solid
8-9 hour heavy sleeper. And eating less doesn't seem like such a great idea... Just eat when you're hungry - no more, no less. Whats wrong with
people, that should be obvious!
Also, to live a little longer there is one very definite thing you can do: NEVER walk on stilts. When you travel, crawl instead of walk. Live in your
basement or cellar, and only use the attic and upper/main floors for storage; rarely go there! Instead of skydiving or parasailing, why not go diving!
If you ever think about going to visit a skyscraper, rather, contemplate visiting an underground bunker. And travel by train instead of aircraft
whenever possible. But NEVER walk on stilts... or go mountaineering (especially with a tourguide with double vision)!
Also, since this is mainly a chemical forum, if you want a reaction to progress a bit faster, don't risk a catastrophy and heat it, simply elevate it!
It helps if you perform all of your experiments on a roof or in an attic. But make sure to wait in the basement or lie on the ground lest the
difference be lost on you.
F. de Lalande and M. Prud'homme showed that a mixture of boric oxide and sodium chloride is decomposed in a stream of dry air or oxygen at a red heat
with the evolution of chlorine.

According to some Hindu Yogi philosophies the
length of life is determined by the number of breaths taken
each day, 21,600 daily breaths are alloted for a normal lifespan of hundred years.
This comes out to one breath every 4 seconds and it is said
that taking less breaths per minute the life is proportionally longer.
It's easy to lengthen breaths to say one every 8 seconds.
One breath every 16 seconds is fairly deep meditation.

Castration should help you live much longer. The castrati singers of the 16th to early 20th centuries demonstrated this. Testosterone (along with
cholesterol and similar non-aromatic steroids) catalyses the deposition of fatty deposits in the arteries, ultimately leading to arterosclerosis,
aneurisms, coronary occlusions, and myocardial infarctions. Besides, testosterone induces violent and risk-taking behavior, liable to lead to early
violent or accidental death.

Sorry John but it's probably too late, lol.
This from Wikipedia was news to me.
.................Castration before puberty (or in its early stages) prevents a boy's larynx from being transformed by the normal physiological events
of puberty. As a result, the vocal range of prepubescence (shared by both sexes) is largely retained, and the voice develops into adulthood in a
unique way. As the castrato's body grew, his lack of testosterone meant that his epiphyses (bone-joints) did not harden in the normal manner. Thus the
limbs of the castrati often grew unusually long, as did the bones of their ribs. This, combined with intensive training, gave them unrivalled
lung-power and breath capacity. Operating through small, child-sized vocal cords, their voices were also extraordinarily flexible, and quite different
from the equivalent adult female voice, as well as higher vocal ranges of the uncastrated adult male (...................

If drinking that healthy ionized water of vlad will make you last for another 50 years and by that time the world is still in 1 piece and we found a
solution for all our current world problems say before the end of 2012, then maybe the medical science has become so far advanced that they can fix
any failing bodypart and regenerate destroyed braincells.

There is some evidence that resveratrol can slow the aging process:

Never accept that which can be changed.

Nascimento, who can be searched for by name), see these sites yielded by Google:

anti-oxidants are also supposed to help a little too, Vit C, A and E as well as Selenium.
they act as free radical scavengers.

Selenium carries the unfortunate risk of selenium poisoning with it. One of the richest sources of selenium are Brazil Nuts, but supposedly eating
three a day puts you at risk for poisoning. Vitamin C and A (as beta-carotene) carry no such risks. Any fruits which are dark blue or purple are high
in anti-oxidants. The real effects of eating x amount of anti-oxidants is always significantly less than labratory tests though.
Generally, a mad-chemistry hobby is not a way to increase your life span, what with heavy metal accumulation, carcinogens, explosives, and the like.
If you want to live longer, go exercise, eat healthy, sleep more, and generally make anyone who can't tolerate that monotony insane. I prefer the
mad-science with potentially shortened lifespan.

Caloric restriction is confirmed in several mammalian species to extend life up to 30%. Retrospective studies of isolated communities with a
prevalence of extreme longevity suggest it works in humans too, but the mechanism is still anyone's guess.
