“Although iron is essential for many physiological processes in the body, it can also be harmful, inducing oxidative stress and hindering neurogenesis. The body typically stores iron in protein complexes until needed, but these storage processes decline with age, leading to iron accumulation in body tissues.”

“Choline is an essential nutrient that supports the production of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved in neurogenesis, synapse formation, learning, and memory. It is produced in the liver and is also found in foods such as eggs, meat, fish, beans, and nuts and as a dietary supplement.”

“BDNF is critical for brain function, neurogenesis, neuronal survival, memory, and body weight regulation. Low BDNF concentrations are typical in psychiatric disorders but typically rise after antidepressant treatment and high omega-3 fatty acid doses.”

“Both eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), the two main forms of omega-3 fatty acids, suppress inflammation, regulate neurogenesis, decrease oxidative stress, and protect the aging brain.”

“These findings indicate that incorporating moderate amounts of choline-rich foods into one's diet may protect brain health during aging. This protective effect may be due to choline's role in producing acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved in neurogenesis, synapse formation, learning, and memory.”

“Some of the mechanisms that drive the beneficial effects of exercise on the brain include increases in brain volume and connectivity, improved blood flow, enhanced synaptic plasticity, and increased neurogenesis – the formation of new neurons.”

“Diluting the blood of old mice enhanced muscle repair, increased neurogenesis in the hippocampus, and decreased fat stores and fibrosis in the liver – recapitulating the effects of heterochronic blood exchange.”
