I admit it. Researching "Aging Gracefully" overwhelms me. But today I serendipitously discovered a skeleton on which to hang the book's muscles. It is an article entitled "The Hallmarks of Aging," published 10 years ago in the scientific magazine "Cell." The link is at the bottom. These are the 9 Hallmarks:
Genomic instability
Telomere attrition
Epigenetic alterations
Loss of proteostasis
Deregulated Nutrient Sensing
Mitochondrial dysfunction
Cellular senescence
Stem cell exhaustion
Altered intercellular communication
