How did Dooku and Sidious avoid senescence?

I need to know the answer. Don't just say "the force".

I'm pretty sure it did. If not the Dark Tower avatar most certainly did.

It's probably among my top 3 favorite book series.

I've read a few of them but I never really got into the series fully. I might reread the ones I read when I was younger and finish them all though, I've been trying to find a new fantasy series to read.

What sorts of books do you typically read? Malazan Book of the Fallen is the best fantasy series ever written imo. ASOIAF is up there too.

Those and DT are probably my three favorite book series'.

It's one of my favorite series. While it's over detailed at times it's well worth reading up till the last 3 books which are written by a different author due to the death of the original.

Fantasy/Scifi generally. Never read that series. Is it at B&N?

Wheel of Time, DT and the Belgariad/Mallorean are mine.

Keeping an active mind. My uncle is 81, and his mind is still sharper than mine. They are so busy reading data and plotting stuff during the Clone Wars, it probably is a stimulant. Also, speaking of stimulants, Star Wars is a (usually) advanced technological society. They probably have eradicated senescence in old people.

They have not, but what you're talking about is senility not senescence anyway; both still exist in Star Wars.

Anyway, the real reason is Dooku and Sidious have magical powers that let them have complete control over their bodily functions consciously. Not really much more to it.

Well going through Jedi and sith training they did excericese a lot and ate healthy so that's part of it. The rest is the force. I think it says in ROTJ that Sidious was well beyond his years and he used the force to sustain him.

Senility and Senescence kind of go together in my book; that being said, I can't wait to go the gym regularly next year once college comes around.
I alright eat healthy and keep my mind active but spend too much time on KMC sitting at a desk sad

How indeed? I would really like to know how Palpatine maintained such a youthful complexion:

Barely a day over 85, who would have guessed?

Regardless of his face, the man would die if you removed all the midichlorians from his blood.
Dooku was about the same age at his death yet was considered to be in better shape than men half his age.

Nah those skin folds are the secret, what you need is a good face scrub.
