Researchers have discovered that infrared lasers promote the clearance of toxic metabolites from the brains of age-accelerated mice by improving lymphatic drainage. Gunking up the works Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), like their acronym suggests, accumulate with age. These substances, which are formed when sugars bind to other molecules without the assistance of enzymes, drive multiple...

Scientists have given three types of beer to artificially aged male mice and recorded numerous beneficial effects, including improvements in microbiome diversity and lipid profiles [1]. Can alcohol be healthy? While it is firmly established that excessive alcohol consumption negatively impacts health, debates around moderate consumption are still ongoing. Some researchers suggest that the healthy...

In a randomized, controlled trial published in Nutrients, researchers tested supplementation with resveratrol, vitamin C, and a combination of both. They learned that all of the treatments had a similar positive impact on oxidative stress in postmenopausal women [1]. Menopausal transition Around the world, a significant proportion of women have reached the post-menopausal stage. In...

An analysis of data from over twenty thousand people has indicated that greater dietary diversity is associated with slower biological aging [1]. Your health is what you eat Good dietary habits are linked to many health benefits, and different diets were previously reported to impact the speed of aging and senescence. For example, adherence to...

In Aging Cell, researchers have published their findings that exosomes, which we have previously reported to extend the lives of mice, also extend the lives of rats. Known to be effective Exosomes, a subset of extracellular vesicles (EVs), can be visualized as messages and packages that cells send to one another. Along with lifespan studies,...

Publishing in Aging, researchers have reversed the early aging of prenatally harmed young mice by exposing them to a more enriched environment. Young organisms born old Newborn rodents from sleep-deprived mothers have conditions that are biologically similar to the processes of aging. One rat study found that maternal sleep deprivation causes these animals to be...
