lanchongziStudies conducted by Norwegian researcher Gro Amdam indicate that symptoms of old age such as short term memory loss and a decline in learning abilities can be reversed through social stimulation. Bees, whose brain cells work similarly to humans, were used for the research. Aging bees underwent a laboratory learning test in which they were challenged to combine an impression (a scent) with a reward, and remember that relationship at a later stage. The results showed that aging bees with dementia like symptoms either did not understand the relationship or forgot it immediately. However, by changing the social order of the bee community, half of the aging bees improved their learning and memory. Further research into these findings need to be conducted, but the scientific community feels that these results could help reverse these symptoms of aging in people.

woodleywonderworksResearchers from Harvard have discovered a biological mechanism that greatly affects aging. Their study shows that caloric restriction and daily exercise are linked to healthy aging because they rejuvenate the connections between nerves and muscles. Experiments performed on genetically engineered lab mice showed that some of the debilitation of aging is caused by deterioration of connections that nerves make with muscles, or neuromuscular junctions.
These microscopic links are very similar to synapses in the brain. In a healthy synapse, nerve endings and receptors on muscle fibres match very closely, ensuring maximum efficiency in transmitting the nerve's signal from brain to muscle. In the aging process these synapses deteriorate and nerves shrink, interfering with transmission of nerve impulses to muscles and eventually to muscle fibre death. But calorie restriction reversed all of this deterioration, while exercise also had a positive affect, though not as significant.
