“The most surprising part? It all happened within weeks and lasted for months.”

That’s an AI tell. It may not be entirely LLM-generated, the various direct quotations help a lot, but there are touches that definitely feel like an LLM had a hand here.

Vibes. It is in the vibes.

Just a heads up, you're firmly in Poe's Law territory.

Many Brain-aging study sample pools are from young folks that died in accidents, aged homeless alcoholics, and individuals that were in declining health.

Most cultures find it taboo to donate their beloved family members bodies for scientific dissection. Thus, people get ingrained "[bigotry] with extra steps" similar to phrenology proponents.

I take N-acetylcysteine and it helps with brain fog also! Plus it reduces stress and irritability.

And OCD symptoms, and many also benefit from better impulse control. Its more effective than SSRIs for some.

NAC is one of the only known treatments for trichotillomania, a under discussed but common condition that causes people to uncontrollably pull their hair out.

NAC has also been studied to reduce nicotine and alchohol cravings as well.

That's exactly what I want: immortal mice!

That's a surprisingly underused plot for a sci Fi horror film. Considering the grand total of experiments we've ran on the little guys, I'm kinda surprised we haven't bred Mousezilla yet
