“Endurance exercise enhances muscle insulin sensitivity and prevents declines in mitochondrial respiratory capacity with aging. High-intensity interval exercise boosts mitochondrial biogenesis, and resistance exercise increases muscle mass, strength, and power.”

“Gray hair is often considered an inevitable part of aging, but evidence suggests lifestyle strategies—including diet—could slow it down. A recent study in mice found that luteolin, a plant-derived antioxidant, may help prevent hair graying by targeting key cellular processes.”

“Maternal choline supplementation is protective against a wide array neurological disorders including fetal alcohol exposure, autism, down syndrome, cognitive aging, and [Alzheimer's disease)[https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26391046/].”

“Collagen, the main structural protein of many of the body's connective tissues, comprising more than 80 percent of the skin's dry weight. This review presents an overview of the scientific data supporting oral collagen supplementation to ameliorate the effects of skin aging.”

“A new study finds that genetic reprogramming in old mice can restore youthful gene activity patterns, reverse the DNA methylation aging clock, and restore the function and regenerative capacity of the aging retina.”

“FTA: > An association between biological changes on the cellular level and both childhood adversity and psychiatric disorders has been identified by researchers. These changes in the form of telomere shortening and alterations of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), are important in the aging process.”

“Additionally, other developmental, lifestyle and health measures indicated that reverse causation is not likely, and the effect is not likely to be mediated through frailty (as measured by telomere length), or disease. Finally, other fitness measures, such as forced expiratory volume or grip strength, were not associated with brain aging when leg power was excluded.”

“Increasing AMPK in the intestine increased the fly's life by about 30 percent, and the fly stayed healthier longer as well. The research could have important implications for delaying aging and disease in humans.”

“They also highlight the importance of incorporating resistance training into exercise programs for older adults to promote healthy aging. Learn more about resistance training for older adults in this clip featuring Dr. Brad Schoenfeld.”

“Compounds derived from cruciferous vegetables may influence not only disease prevention but also the fundamental processes of aging. A recent roundworm study found that sulforaphane, a bioactive compound derived from broccoli, extended lifespan by more than 50%, but only when taken early in life.”
