Key Points: A colossal trove of molecular data, compiled by scientists over decades, has enabled testing millions of samples across an array of interventions. However, the researchers who helped generate these data rarely analyzed them for their effects on aging. Now, as published in a non-peer-reviewed preprint, Gladyshev and colleagues from prestigious institutions such as… Continue reading AI Analyzes Millions of Molecular Profiles to Uncover Overlooked Aging Interventions

How to Support Muscle Function with Age: Top Evidence-Based Supplements
Key Points: Whether taking supplements can support muscle function and physical performance as people age has garnered the attention of Walker and colleagues from University College London, as published in a review in Nutrients. Delving into their research on certain supplements can help uncover which, if any, supplements may aid older adults’ efforts to support… Continue reading How to Support Muscle Function with Age: Top Evidence-Based Supplements
The Rise of China’s Longevity Movement: A Quest to Defy Aging
Key Points: Recently, when a hot mic from Chinese state television caught China’s President, Xi Jinping, and Russia’s President, Vladimir V. Putin, discussing the prospect of living to 150 and possibly even forever, many reacted with anxiety and dismay. However, this was not the case in the laboratory of a longevity medicine start-up in the… Continue reading The Rise of China’s Longevity Movement: A Quest to Defy Aging
Peter Attia’s 2025 Performance Principles for Longevity: 60 Minutes
Key Points: When longevity physician Peter Attia appeared on 60 Minutes, he focused on a measurable, performance-based view of aging that looks at how well the body functions rather than how old someone is. Attia’s core message emphasizes that the final decade of life is shaped long before it arrives. He calls this period the… Continue reading Peter Attia’s 2025 Performance Principles for Longevity: 60 Minutes
Johns Hopkins Research Review: Parkinson’s Drug Shown to Extend Lifespan Across Mammalian Species
Key Points: Showing that a therapeutic approach reproducibly extends lifespan across multiple mammalian species serves as a key attribute of any potential approach before entering human trials concerning longevity. The reproducibility of findings is a crucial cornerstone of the scientific method, and when several laboratories can replicate lifespan extension in different mammalian models, this provides… Continue reading Johns Hopkins Research Review: Parkinson’s Drug Shown to Extend Lifespan Across Mammalian Species
Scientists Discover Deer Antler Stem Cells That Reverse Aging in Mice and Monkeys
Key Points: A new study in Nature Aging reveals that one of nature’s fastest-regenerating organs, the deer antler, may hold a key to slowing or even reversing aspects of aging. Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Northwestern Polytechnical University discovered that tiny particles released by special stem cells found in regenerating antlers can… Continue reading Scientists Discover Deer Antler Stem Cells That Reverse Aging in Mice and Monkeys
Beyond Aligning Life with Light: Supplements that Counter Circadian Decline
Key Points: Circadian rhythm maintenance comes down to adopting a daily routine, whereby the foremost aspects of life, particularly sleeping, eating, and engaging in physical activity, are done within the same window of time. Light is the most crucial of these circadian-entraining cues, suggesting the ideal routine is aligned with the rising and falling of… Continue reading Beyond Aligning Life with Light: Supplements that Counter Circadian Decline
Innovative Computer Model Reveals Aging May Stem from Lost Cellular Purpose
Key Points: A groundbreaking computational study published in Advanced Science challenges conventional thinking about why we age, proposing that the fundamental cause is not accumulated damage but rather a loss of biological purpose once development is complete. The research, from Levin and colleagues at Tufts University, utilizes an advanced computer model to simulate tissue development… Continue reading Innovative Computer Model Reveals Aging May Stem from Lost Cellular Purpose
Boosting NAD+ May Defy Aging by Enhancing Energy Flow, According to a New Theory
Key Points: In defiance of entropy, we exist in a highly ordered physical state known as the human body. To persist, we must consume food and breathe oxygen, providing the primary substrates necessary for the flow of energy. As this flow of energy sustains life, when disrupted, it promotes aging and death. However, according to… Continue reading Boosting NAD+ May Defy Aging by Enhancing Energy Flow, According to a New Theory
