USC Scientists Reveal that Fasting-Mimicking Diet Reduces Brain Pathology and Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer’s 

Key Points:  While many of us, including pharmaceutical companies, hope that AD can be cured with therapeutic drugs, a new study from the University of Southern California (USC) suggest that such drugs may be unnecessary.  Published in Cell Reports, Rangan and colleagues show that FMD reduces brain inflammation and cognitive decline in a mouse model… Continue reading USC Scientists Reveal that Fasting-Mimicking Diet Reduces Brain Pathology and Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer’s 

UCLA Scientists Show Young Blood Improves Kidney Function and Reverses Biological Age

Key Points: Older adults treated with umbilical cord plasma for 10 weeks have improved kidney function. Plasma treatment leads to no adverse reactions. Treatment decreases morbidity and mortality risks based on age-related DNA changes. Plasma exchange — where one’s blood plasma is exchanged for healthier, donor plasma — is considered standard treatment for various diseases,… Continue reading UCLA Scientists Show Young Blood Improves Kidney Function and Reverses Biological Age

Baylor College Scientists Reverse Signs of Aging with Antioxidant Cocktail in Older Adults

Key Points:  Supplementing older adults with GlyNAC restores cognition, boosts physical function, and mitigates insulin resistance — a condition that can lead to diabetes.  GlyNAC raises natural antioxidant defenses to reduce inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and oxidative stress — damage caused to cells by excessive reactive oxygen species.    The beneficial effects of GlyNAC treatment disappear 12… Continue reading Baylor College Scientists Reverse Signs of Aging with Antioxidant Cocktail in Older Adults
