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.

Aging &amp; Longevity

<p>Model: 20-month-old male C57BL/6 mice<br />
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</p>


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.

Columbia University scientists find that inflammation increases the risk of common chronic age-related diseases only in people from industrialized populations.

Immunity

<p>Model: 24-month-old male C57BL/6J mice </p>
<p>Dosage: 1% w/v of betaine for three weeks </p>


The naturally occurring compound betaine is elevated in healthy adults after long-term exercise and mitigates signs of aging in mice.
