HUMAN LIFE EXTENSION THERAPY THROUGH MOLECULAR, CELLULAR AND SUBCELLULAR MANAGEMENT OF BIOCHEMICAL REQUIREMENTS OF MITOCHONDRIA AND OF OTHER ORGANELLE PROCESSES ASSOCIATED WITH THE ADVENT OF DISEASE AND/OR AGING
This invention provides compositions, systems and methods that improve and/or optimize the health and performance of animals, especially mammals including humans, canines, equines, felines, etc. Key aspects of the principle invention and its parts include the monitoring, management and modulation of the bodys natural cannabinoid systems through its native mechanisms thereby optimizing its processes by supplementation with endogenously occurring components and/or by administering synthetic compounds. The invention selects from multiple available resources to modify and/or rebalance an individual system or it may be applied across interconnected systems. The encompassing system that is intricately involved in the operations and intensities, e.g., the balancing of most other systems of our bodies, relates to cannabinoid compounds and their receptors. The cannabinoid pathways can be coordinated in rebalancing multiple and various metabolic pathways. Compositions comprising compounds that slow degradation of native endocannabinoids, that stimulate their production and/or compounds that act on cannabinoid receptors within the body are featured in systems and methods of this invention. The activated and rebalanced cannabinoid systems then become adept at modulating and the rebalancing of the numerous systems in which they participate to improve one or more systems including, but not limited to: normal and/or abnormal stresses of life, environmental influences, genomic or epigenomic irregularities and/or normal or accentuated processes of aging. Specifically targeted systems may include, but are not limited to, those involved in: cellular and/or mitochondrial metabolism, corticosteroid synthesis and effects, appetite, allergy and immunity, sleep and waking, etc. Practicing the invention selects from multiple approaches that may be used independently or in concert to compensate for a variety of concerns. Supplementing dietary intake to rebalance metabolism and/or its metabol
