Professor
Geoffrey Grant believes that the processing of food
in the commercial venue
detrimentally affects human aging, age-related diseases and therefore
our existence. Humans in the industrialize
world are subject to a multitude of toxic environmental substances, as
well as food additives, preservatives and flavor and sensory
enhancing ingredients that negatively contribute to our health and
well-being. To extend the period of health and wellness the nutritional
supplements that we ingest must be free from toxic additives,
artificial preservatives and stimulants. We must
supplement our diets with a wide variety of micro-nutrients that are
normally unavailable in a 'standard' diet and ensure that these
nutritional supplements are natural organic ingredients uncontaminated
by any toxic additives.
Dr. Grant is
interested and desires to correct the root molecular cause of aging,
He
has an intense passion and is an acknowledged expertise in the
remediation of the
aging process.
His desire is to extend the period of healthy human existence and to translate that improved wellness into a longer life and an ability to function independently with a higher quality of lifestyle. This means the prevention and/or correction of the body's dysfunctional intracellular signaling and energy metabolism that occurs as humans and animals age. During the past decade there has been enormous amounts of research conducted in the area of aging and its prevention. Prof. Grant has focused his studies upon the meta analysis of experimental molecular and biochemical events that surround age-related disease states and the commonalities of the declining physiology of cells, organs and tissues. Dr. Grant has developed and formulated recipes for wellness and a long healthy existence based upon readily available nutritional supplements each of which have been scientifically shown to independently retard the processes of aging. These nutritional supplements have been tested in animals and each has demonstrated the ability to extend the quality of a healthy existence of the treated animals in contrast to parallel controls.

formulated recipe for wellness and a long healthy existence can be

His post-doctoral research and, subsequently, an assistant professor faculty position was at the 'Salk Institute for Biological Studies' in San Diego California where he conducted research on the biology and chemistry of brain hormones as they relate to body physiology and regulation. In 1977, his mentor, Dr. Roger Guillemin received the Nobel Prize for the group’s discoveries on these brain hormones. Dr. Grant has published research articles in such prodigious journals as ‘Nature’ and ‘Science’ as well as a multitude of articles in peer reviewed journals. He has written many invited review chapters in scientific textbooks. Dr. Grant was a Co-Discoverer of Somatostatin, the Hypothalamic Growth Hormone Release Inhibiting Peptide [ SRIF ] that regulates the growth hormone and thyrotropin secretion of the pituitary and both insulin and glucagon secretion in the pancreas. Dr. Grant is an Emeritus Professor of Science. University of Texas Prof. Grant has established, University Technologies of Texas, inc.[ http://www.uttx.com ] to commercialize the nutritional science and knowledge concerning aging and age-related diseases developed by university research into successful supplement products. Dr. Grant is a former director of the U Texas Arlington Technology Incubator, an entity striving to assist startup companies especially technologies originating from U Texas Arlington. Prior to 1998 Dr. Grant spent 20+ years acquiring, managing/operating, upgrading and developing 7-8 small manufacturing businesses. During 1992-3 he was CEO of Micrologix Biotech, inc a Canadian biotechnology company that he supervised during the transition into a public company and is now part of Migenix,inc. [TOR:MGI] a large Canadian biotechnology company. |
