“In fact, telomerase levels in cancer cells are often as much as 10-fold higher than in normal, healthy replicating cells. In this clip, Dr. Elissa Epel discusses how having an optimal ratio of telomerase – high enough to reduce the risk of chronic disease, but low enough to reduce the risk of cancer – is key.”

“DNA-methylation clocks use patterns in blood or other tissues to estimate aspects of biological aging. In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's presentation at Natural Products Expo West, she discusses how omega-3 fatty acids may influence these research biomarkers.”

“A standard multivitamin may support selected older adults by filling dietary gaps, and population surveys show that many people consume less than estimated requirements for nutrients such as magnesium, calcium, and vitamins A and C.”
