Three Tiers to biological escape velocity: The quest to outwit aging.

As longevity companies emerge with new products and the fields of anti‐aging research develop new cutting‐edge therapies, three distinct classes of longevity methodologies emerge. This discussion finds that there are three clear classes (Tiers) of longevity systems that are currently under development, and all three will be paramount to achieve biological escape velocity (where tissues can be repaired faster than aging can damage them). These classes are referred to as Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 treatments and are described in detail below. These three Tiers are required for easy identification for pharmaceutical companies and research companies to determine the type of therapy they may choose to deliver being noninvasive, invasive, time consuming, or simple end user products. Specific targets and goals need to be defined clearly from an early perspective in the development of these technologies for future precision medicines. This allows consumers of future anti‐aging technologies to consider which Tier a particular therapy may be, delivering a more informed choice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
