NAD+ Supercharges Immune System Recovery in Older Mice

Researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, found that young mice need NAD+ breakdown, while old mice need NAD+ boosting.

With over 246 million data points, obtained from 108 participants, scientists show that we rapidly age around 45 and 60. 

Stanford researchers find that our biological age accelerates during mid-life and retirement age.

Stanford Researchers Propose Psychological Stress as a Critical Hallmark of Aging

Stanford scientists propose that the impact of psychological elements like trauma and depression are key drivers of aging.

Stanford researchers propose designating psychological factors like past trauma, depression, and loneliness as a new hallmark of aging.

Model: Twenty-five-month-old female Sprague-Dawley rats
Dosage: 1 mL of blood plasma from two-month-old rats intraperitoneally injected every other week until death
Model: C57BL/6J male mice
Dosage: 0.055 mg/mL of ergothioneine administered orally in water from seven weeks of age until death

Canadian Longevity Organization Spotlights Key Research on Latest Anti-Aging Treatments

The Canadian Longevity Association — a non-profit organization dedicated to accelerating longevity research — highlights research on rodent lifespan extension with young plasma and the mushroom-derived compound ergothioneine.
