Top Evidence-Based Interventions to Lower Biological Age

Epigenetic aging clocks estimate biological age based on DNA molecular tagging patterns, and interventions like semaglutide and ketamine reduce these estimates in humans.

As reviewed in this article, epigenetic aging clocks have estimated the effects of pharmaceutical interventions, lifestyle habits, supplements, and clinical interventions on biological age.

How to Boost Mitochondrial Tissue Density and Quality for Longevity

Lifestyle hacks contrived to promote the tissue density and quality of mitochondria (the cell’s powerhouses) can aid in the efficient generation of cellular energy and reduce inflammation, thereby promoting longevity.

Exercise, nutritional support, and lifestyle hacks like cold exposure can all help mitigate mitochondrial dysfunction, a key hallmark of aging.

Participants: Healthy middle-aged to older adults (average age: ~53 years)
Dosage: 1,000 mg/day of urolithin A for 28 days

Supplementing healthy adults with urolithin A —a compound produced by our gut bacteria— counters signs of age-related immune system decline.

Immunity

Model: Male C57BL/6 mice given continuous alcohol for 4 weeks 
Dosage: 350 mg/kg/day of nicotinamide riboside chloride for 2 weeks

The NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) precursor nicotinamide riboside (NR) counteracts neuronal damage caused by alcohol consumption in mice.
