Aging is a complex and multifactorial process that is influenced by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. While there is still much we don’t know about the exact mechanisms of aging, there are several leading theories. One theory is the accumulation of damage over time, which suggests that aging is caused by a buildup of damage to our …

Cellular senescence does hold secrets for healthier aging. Cellular senescence is a phenomenon where cells stop dividing and enter a state of permanent growth arrest. This process is triggered by a variety of stressors, such as DNA damage, telomere shortening, oxidative stress, and oncogene activation. While cellular senescence was initially thought to be a protective mechanism against cancer, recent research …

There is growing evidence to suggest a link between glucose management and longevity. Several studies have investigated the relationship between glucose metabolism and aging, and the results suggest that controlling glucose levels could have a significant impact on lifespan. One key study, published in the journal Cell Metabolism in 2013, looked at the effects of a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet on …
