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.

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.

Model: 22-month-old male C57BL/6NIH mice 
Dosage: 400 mg/kg of NR for eight weeks, administered in food

Treating aged mice with the NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) precursor NR (nicotinamide riboside) improves memory and reduces pro-inflammatory immune cells.

How to Support Muscle Function with Age: Top Evidence-Based Supplements

Data suggest certain supplements, such as L-carnitine, vitamin D, and essential minerals, support muscle function and physical performance in adults of advanced age.

Researchers from University College London review data supporting that supplements, like vitamin D, L-carnitine, and essential minerals, support muscle function during aging.

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.
