Young Blood Seems to Reverse Aging in the Brain
Researchers have recently discovered that administering young blood to older mice causes their hearts to beat faster, muscles to strengthen more quickly and thinking to sharpen. Now scientists are researching specific components in young blood which appear to halt brain aging. Heterochronic parabiosis and administration of pro-youthful factors such as GDF11, clusterin, GPLD1, and a-klotho […]
Read MoreBest Supplements to Reverse Aging
Age-related biological and physiological decline occurs naturally; however, lifestyle habits like regular sleep schedules and vitamin supplements can help counter this process. Supplements such as Coenzyme Q10, Quercetin, N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC), Resveratrol and Rose Hips have been demonstrated to lower oxidative stress and slow the signs of aging. InsideTracker only recommends supplements with sufficient evidence […]
Read MoreHow Do You Reverse Aging?
Many people desire a way to turn back time and live longer and healthier lives, and scientists are currently exploring methods of slowing or even reversing biological aging. Your cells contain special endcaps called telomeres which protect DNA. When these become too short, cells die. Some cells don’t die; these senescent cells instead accumulate and […]
Read MoreCan Scientists Reverse Aging?
Scientists are making strides toward making major advances when it comes to slowing and possibly reversing aging, including advances like cellular reprogramming. Nobel laureate Shinya Yamanaka discovered four genes can convert an adult cell into something known as an induced pluripotent stem cell – similar to embryonic stem cells. Epigenetics, spearheaded by Harvard Medical School […]
Read MoreCan Quitting Sugar Reverse Aging?
Sugary foods stimulate cravings and release dopamine in our brains, altering both mood and behavior. Reducing added sugar could significantly enhance both mental health and cognitive performance. Eliminating all sugar isn’t healthy, but cutting back significantly has many advantages. Quitting suddenly may cause withdrawal symptoms like headaches. Reduces Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Sugar may […]
