Your Guide to Bioidentical Hormone Therapy
Published November 12, 2009
Dr. Edmund Chein, head of the Life Extension Institute in Palm Springs, California, received his post graduate medical training at the University of Southern California Medical Center in the specialty of Rehabilitation Medicine. Dr. Chein is also a licensed private forensic investigator. He retired from forensic medicine in the 1990s and began research in bioidentical hormones and their relationship to DNA. He discovered that telomeres found in DNA control the human aging process (the field that won the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2009) and that telomeres in our DNA are controlled by telomerase, which in turn are activated by hormones. Chein parlayed this discovery into a collaborative study with the Medical College of Wisconsin, where he tested 1,000 human subjects by restoring nine of their bioidentical hormones, including the Human Growth Hormone, to their 20-year-old levels. This process became an anti-aging procedure that reversed up to 20 years of biological age. Dr. Chein holds a patent for this anti-aging procedure in the United States, British Commonwealth and the People's Republic of China.
