<p>Participants: Prefrail older adults</p>
<p>Dosage: 50 mg/day of losartan for at least 8 weeks</p>


Losartan, a common blood pressure medication, increases the survival rate of mice and improves the metabolic outlook of pre-frail older adults.

What Is Mosaic Aging? How Organs Age at Different Rates

A new framework proposes that the patchwork nature of aging, where different organs deteriorate at different speeds, may hold the key to understanding the ultimate cause of death.

A new framework proposes that aging occurs unevenly in cells, tissues, and organs, and that targeting the fastest-aging tissues may extend lifespan.

New Study Shows Cranberry Extract Equivalent to Metformin in Fighting Aging

Fayoum University researchers found that cranberry polyphenols improve metabolic markers, cognition, and oxidative stress to the same degree as the drug metformin.

A new study suggests cranberry extract has effects against aging that rival metformin.

Scientists Discover Deer Antler Stem Cells That Reverse Aging in Mice and Monkeys

Researchers discover that deer antler stem cells can restore bone density, slow aging, and reverse biological age in mice and primates.

<p>Model: C57BL/6J mice, J20 mice, and 3xTg mice<br />
Dosage: 4.3 μEq l−1 of lithium in drinking water starting at 10 to 12 months of age and continued for 10 to 14 months during aging </p>


Harvard Study: A Low Dose of Lithium May Preserve Cognitive Resilience with Age

Researchers uncover significantly lower brain lithium levels in Alzheimer’s disease patients, and supplementing with a low-dose lithium salt restores memory in an Alzheimer’s disease mouse model.

A Harvard study suggests lower levels of lithium in the brains of patients with Alzheimer’s disease and that lithium supplementation may help preserve cognitive resilience.
