Rapamycin
US clinician prescribed Rapamycin.
Studies have indicated that Rapamycin can increase the lifespan of various organisms, such as yeast, nematodes, fruit flies, and mice. It is believed that rapamycin imitates the benefits of caloric restriction, which has been shown to enhance lifespan in numerous species.
The longevity effects of rapamycin are thought to be a result of its ability to inhibit mTOR, which in turn triggers autophagy, reduces inflammation and cellular senescence, and enhances immune function.

Rapamycin
Rapamycin is a naturally extracted compound found in 1972 on Rapa Nui (Easter Island), which is where it gets its name. It has been used to help the body to accept transplants, to treat lung disease and to treat coronary stents.
It is now being researched as a longevity focused intervention. Since a groundbreaking 2014 experiment showed it could extend the lifespan of mice by 14%, it has been studied for its effect on age related disease and life extension.
The Washington Post, called it a “darling of longevity enthusiasts”, while GQ asked “is the secret to a longer life already available at your local pharmacy?”
