The Molecule Holding The Key To Cellular Health And Combatting Age-Related Diseases

August 11, 2022

Breakthroughs in medicine and technology account for a global increase in life expectancy, yet improvements in quality of life for the elderly population lag far behind. Human longevity coupled with poor healthspan expectations is a significant challenge facing anti-aging medicine and the future of population health. Targeted therapeutic interventions and preventive care protocols are necessary to mitigate the sharp rise in age-related disease and disability accompanying longer life expectancy.

Different designer diamines, lab-derived amines with two amino groups, are increasingly being studied for their potential to enhance the healthspan by promoting mitophagy and protecting cells against oxidative damage. In a recent study, researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem evaluated a new molecule for its potential to prevent age-related diseases and increase life expectancy and wellness. Their findings were published in Autophagy and outline the role of mitophagy in age-related disease and the promising protective effect of diamines.

Breakthrough Research Finds Meal Timing Is Key To Longevity

July 15, 2022

Plant-based diets have long been the focal point of longevity research as they have proven to stave off chronic disease, improve biological markers of aging, and aid in weight management, among many other benefits. Current dietary interventions primarily encourage the consumption of plant-based foods and the elimination of processed ingredients. However, emerging research suggests that it is not only the type of food consumed but also the timing of meals that can profoundly affect life- and healthspan. A new study published in the journal Science reveals the promising potential of strategic meal timing to promote anti-aging effects.
