Microplastics have been found in human blood, lungs, and even heart tissue, raising concerns about their long-term effects on health. While there’s no proven way to completely eliminate them from the body, research is uncovering methods that might help reduce their accumulation. How microplastics get inside us Microplastics—tiny plastic particles less than 5 mm in … Read more
Bryan Johnson takes hydration as seriously as every other part of his health regimen. From carefully measured caffeine intake to multi-stage water filtration, every drink he consumes is part of his longevity-focused lifestyle. The morning routine and why he stopped his green shake For a long time, Johnson started his day with a drink he … Read more
Rapamycin, originally developed to prevent organ transplant rejection, has gained attention in the longevity community for its potential to extend lifespan. However, prominent aging researcher David Sinclair chooses not to include it in his regimen. Let’s explore what rapamycin does, Sinclair’s reasons for avoiding it, and what other experts think. What rapamycin does for lifespan extension Rapamycin … Read more
Harvard geneticist David Sinclair has been a prominent figure in aging research, particularly known for his work on sirtuins—proteins that he suggests play a crucial role in regulating lifespan and healthspan. But what exactly are sirtuins, and can we harness them to promote longevity? What are sirtuins and how do they affect aging? Sirtuins are a … Read more
Harvard professor David Sinclair, known for his work on aging and longevity, has been open about taking Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) to boost his health. He reportedly takes 1,000 mg of NMN every morning, hoping to maintain youthful energy levels and slow down aging. But does the science back up his approach, and is NMN even … Read more
A growing number of high-profile figures in the health and longevity space share their supplement stacks. While some, like David Sinclair, are scientists conducting aging research, many others—like Bryan Johnson, Andrew Huberman, and Peter Attia—are more accurately described as influencers who blend science with personal experimentation. The supplement table: What are they taking? To make … Read more
The idea of competing to reverse aging might sound like science fiction, but it’s already happening. Over the past few years, longevity has evolved from a personal health pursuit into a competitive sport, complete with leaderboards, biomarker tracking, and even prize money. Brian Johnson recently tweeted that for the first time, he is topping the … Read more
Longevity research has seen a surge in interest over the past decade, with certain compounds standing out for their potential anti-aging effects. Among these, NMN, Rapamycin, and Metformin have gained the most attention due to their distinct mechanisms that may influence the aging process. Understanding how NMN works Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) is a precursor to … Read more
Exercise does more than keep you fit—it changes your body at a cellular level, slowing down the aging process and extending your lifespan. Studies show that regular physical activity boosts mitochondrial function, protects telomeres, and improves cellular cleanup, all of which contribute to better health as you age. How exercise affects your body at a … Read more
Aging—it’s something we all deal with, but scientists are getting closer to figuring out how to slow it down. From medications that might extend healthspan to genetic tweaks that could rewind the clock, the latest research suggests that aging isn’t as inevitable as we once thought. Here’s a look at some of the most promising … Read more
