Model: Naturally aged 24-month-old C57BL/6 mice 
Dose: 0.1 mg/kg/day of folic acid administered orally for 12 months

Supplementation with vitamin B9, also known as folic acid or folate, prevents cellular senescence and slows vascular aging in naturally aged mice.  

Cardiovascular

Model: 20-month-old male C57BL/6 mice 
Dosage: 3,000 to 4,000 µg of ouabain dissolved in 27,000 to 36,000 µL of PBS injected twice per week every third week over a period of three months

AI Analyzes Millions of Molecular Profiles to Uncover Overlooked Aging Interventions

Harvard and MIT scientists analyze decades of publicly available molecular studies with a new AI platform to uncover hundreds of previously hidden anti-aging strategies, like the drug ouabain.

A new AI platform has uncovered hundreds of pro-longevity agents based on the reanalysis of millions of mouse and human gene expression samples.

Aging &amp; Longevity

Participants: Adults over the age of 60
Dosage: 3,750 mg of niacin twice daily (after gradual dose increase), 150 mg of dihydroberberine twice daily, 50 mg of taxifolin (with 500 mg of vitamin C and 15 mg of zinc) twice daily, 50 mg of tocotrienols twice daily

A combination of supplements, including the NAD+ precursor nicotinic acid, improves cholesterol, allowing some participants to cease taking statins.  

Study conducted by Professor Emeritus Joseph Keenan, MD, at the University of Minnesota. 

Nicotinic Acid

Participants: Healthy male adults between the ages of 18 and 50 
Dosage: 714 mg/day of nicotinamide and 19 mg/day of pyridoxine for nine days

In a randomized human trial, combining nicotinamide with vitamin B6 increases stem cell activation and muscle-growth capacity in response to exercise. 

Skin &amp; Muscle

Participants: Healthy males (age range: 70-76)
Dosage: 1 mg per day of rapamycin for 8 weeks

Supplementing with rapamycin leads to improvements in cardiac and vascular function in older men, suggesting this longevity-associated drug may counteract cardiovascular aging.
