In community after community, the hospitals keep closing. In 2018, it was Northside Regional Medical Center in Youngstown, Ohio. In 2019, it was Ohio Valley Medical Center in Wheeling, West Virginia, along with East Ohio Regional Hospital across the river in Martins Ferry, Ohio. That November, St. Luke's Medical Center, which had treated patients in Phoenix for more than a century, shut its doors. In 2020, as the pandemic hit, it was one in Massachusetts and another in West Virginia. Followed by four more — in California, Pennsylvania, and Texas — over the next three years. Other  hospitals are teetering  on the brink. In 2022, Conemaugh Nason Medical Center in Pennsylvania announced it was ending OB-GYN deliveries, leaving some mothers-to-be to travel almost an hour to give birth. Last year, Glenwood Regional Medical Center in Louisiana was ordered by the state to turn away patients because of inadequate supplies and staffing levels. In addition to their financial struggles, ...

Singapore was named a Blue Zone 2.0, or “the next frontier of ageing”, in 2023 by Dan Buettner, the American author and explorer who coined the term “Blue Zones” for places with lower rates of chronic disease and a longer life expectancy. Unlike the five original places Buettner identified – Okinawa, Japan; Sardinia, Italy; Nicoya, Costa Rica; Ikaria, Greece; and Loma Linda, California – where traditional ways of life have naturally led inhabitants to live longer and healthier lives, Singapore is an “engineered” Blue Zone. Its status is the product of infrastructure, programmes and legislation that encourage citizens to live healthier lives. Singapore features in the 2023 Netflix documentary Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones . Life expectancy in Singapore has grown by 20 years since 1960, and in 2023 the Southeast Asian island state had the seventh highest in the world, with an average lifespan of 82.13 years for men and 86.42 years for women.

Some do everything they can to mask it or use some other method to make it go away, while others barely notice and simply go about the business of living. What is it? The way of the gray. Gray hair has been, for want of a better phrase, "the way it is," since the beginning of time. Like taxes and that other thing we won't mention, "earning" gray hair is inevitable for the vast majority of people. Proverbs says, "Gray hair (in the King James version it's 'hoary head') is a glorious crown; it is found in the way of righteousness." This observable fact has been linked to  aging  since humans lived long enough to experience the privilege. The alternative is generally undesirable. They've said it was genetic for years. But is that really the case for hair that turns gray prematurely or otherwise? Science says it'...
