Dr. Bruce Ames on The Ames mutagenicity test

Core perspective shared by Dr. Bruce Ames (Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute (CHORI)): "The Triage Theory: When micronutrients are in modest deficiency, the body prioritizes short-term survival proteins over long-term DNA repair, accelerating aging."
