Stanford Neuroscientist Andrew Huberman’s Nutrient and Supplement List for Brain Health
Brain Health Nutrients and Supplements: In a Huberman Lab episode, Andrew Huberman, Ph.D., discusses the top nutrients involved in brain function. These nutrients may maintain brain health over time, potentially counteracting the memory loss and cognitive deficits that occur with aging. EPA (1.5-3g/day) Huberman declares that fat is the most important food element for brain… Continue reading Stanford Neuroscientist Andrew Huberman’s Nutrient and Supplement List for Brain Health
Biohacker Gary Brecka on the Anti-Aging Capabilities of Methylene Blue
Key Points: Gary Brecka knows a lot about what makes people live longer. As a former life insurance actuary, he predicted the lifespan of clients based on their age and medical history. Brecka now hosts the Ultimate Human podcast, where he discusses health, wellness, and longevity with guests like Steve Aoki. In a recent podcast… Continue reading Biohacker Gary Brecka on the Anti-Aging Capabilities of Methylene Blue
Rhonda Patrick Reveals How Intense Workouts Can Revolutionize Your Lifespan
Key Points: Dr. Rhonda Patrick, a celebrity biochemist and aging expert, says that if we could reap the benefits of exercise in the form of a pill, it would be the best longevity supplement available. In a presentation she gave at the Longevity Fest 2023, Dr. Patrick says that we can harness a vigorous exercise… Continue reading Rhonda Patrick Reveals How Intense Workouts Can Revolutionize Your Lifespan
Research Supports Apigenin’s Anti-Aging Benefits on The Brain
Key Points: The most common cause of neurodegenerative disorders, which are characterized by the degeneration of the brain and include conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, is the process of aging. In spite of the fact that this area of research has attracted a significant number of researchers and an absurd amount of funding, there isn’t… Continue reading Research Supports Apigenin’s Anti-Aging Benefits on The Brain
Researchers Use Gold Nanoparticles to Treat Neurodegenerative Disease
Key Points: Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder characterized by memory loss, cognitive decline, and behavioral changes due to the degeneration and death of brain cells. These changes in the brain are thought to be caused by the buildup of abnormal protein in the brain, causing damage and eventually killing brain cells. In this… Continue reading Researchers Use Gold Nanoparticles to Treat Neurodegenerative Disease
Probiotic and Fiber Drink Deters Dementia in New Japanese Study
Key Points: Millions of people across the globe suffer from dementia, with worldwide economic costs reaching $1.3 trillion in 2019, not to mention the unmeasurable physical, emotional, and psychological costs. Since dementia is preceded by mild cognitive impairment (MCI) — decrements in memory and thinking — countering MCI could deter the path to dementia. Now, as reported… Continue reading Probiotic and Fiber Drink Deters Dementia in New Japanese Study
Study Shows Stem Cell-Secreted Particles Can Reverse Alzheimer’s
Key Points: An overarching objective of aging research is to find a universal therapy capable of treating a spectrum of age-related diseases, including AD. Considering that organ degeneration is behind most age-related diseases, the organ regenerative properties of stem cell EVs may provide such a therapy. Now, researchers from Tongji University in China present data… Continue reading Study Shows Stem Cell-Secreted Particles Can Reverse Alzheimer’s
New Study Reveals Coffee-Derived Molecule Trigonelline Defends Against Cognitive Decline
Key Points: Age-related cognitive decline affects ~11.7% of adults over age 65 and up to ~40% of adults over 80, with symptoms including slower problem-solving ability, reduced perceptual speed, and memory impairment. Recent research has increasingly focused on the potential of naturally occurring compounds in foods and beverages to slow down brain aging and counteract… Continue reading New Study Reveals Coffee-Derived Molecule Trigonelline Defends Against Cognitive Decline
Latest Findings: Fisetin Confers Anti-Aging Impact Against Brain Senescence
Key Points: Fisetin, a naturally-occurring flavonoid found in fruits and vegetables like strawberries, cucumbers, apples, and onions, has been shown to enhance rodent cognition and promote neuron survival. Fisetin’s cognition enhancing effects in rodents have mainly been attributed to its antioxidant and antiinflammatory activities. However, whether fisetin acts as a senolytic agent to reduce senescent… Continue reading Latest Findings: Fisetin Confers Anti-Aging Impact Against Brain Senescence
