You're gonna love this next story, for the good of mankind who would have thought that guys like Hugh Hefner(lao ban of playboy), and Michael Douglas are helping1 to preserve the human race. It’s all because they are into girls who are much younger than they are, women, we should say. A new study out suggested that older guys if they continue to hook up with the younger women, that the lifespan ceiling, as it's called for both sexes, will actually rise over time. Here now, Hackensack University Medical Center to share the good news. This is Dr. Jake Deutsch. Ok, so the idea being that the older guys with the younger women means we are all gonna live longer eventually, is that the headline?

That's the idea(How in the world does that work?) well I think it’s allowing people that are able to live longer because they've overcome natural selection for whether it is a heart attack or a stroke, or then reproducing at a late year age, and making children that then themselves live longer. So it'll translate to a longer lifespan throughout the population.

So basically what your messages to women is don’t be upset. When your husband runs off with the younger woman coz it's ultimately good for women too? How does that work?(It can be good. yeah, and good for mankind, absolutely) In that, why, er, coz this is probably gonna seem like a dumb question to a lot of people out there but I am asking anybody . Anyway, why is there this match-up, why is there…you know is there, is it a psychological more than we often..cause we’ve seen it throughout history of older guys (Right!) and younger girls. Is there an explanation for it?

Well, for whatever reason men are more likely to marry than women and as it turns out then there is other things, I think in terms of financial situations, companionship, other factors that play into that. And I think that genetic2 selection has also programmed men to want to reproduce and if they are able to, that translates into having children and if it's at an older age, so be it.

So it’s all about the reproduction. What about, we are looking at Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, an example of kind of this May-December idea. But what else happens when it is the reverse? Did, was that figured into the study at all, the idea of the Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore's simple world.

Well, they have looked at the women's reproduction. And actually women that are able to rear their children and grandchildren. It’s been found that their children lived longer. Whether it's because they have the genetics to pass long or they are just physically3 there in order to raise them, that’s resulted in people that live longer. So yes they have looked at it but this is a new twist with looking at the men.

Alright, Dr. Jack4 Deutsch, Jake Deutsch, I’m sorry I should say from Hackensack University Medical Center. That’s a good topic talked about today, right?(Yeah) Now I'll have a stop. Good to see you , Doctor, thank you!
