“In this clip, Drs. Levine and Patrick discuss new advances in cellular aging research that show it's possible to reverse aging and generate new stem cells from already differentiated cells. Dr. Levine also discusses parabiosis, a treatment that involves giving old mice an infusion of plasma from young mice, and how it may reverse the cellular changes that accumulate during aging.”

“As techniques are developed to differentiate and transdifferentiate cells from one cell type, such as a fibroblast, into another, such as a neuron, interesting patterns of effects on epigenetic age are revealed. Listen as Dr. Steve Horvath discusses nuances of epigenetic age in the context of cellular differentiation and aging experiments in the lab.”

“In this member Q&A clip, Dr. Rhonda Patrick shares four practices she uses or finds compelling for healthy aging: sauna, sulforaphane-rich foods or supplements, time-restricted eating, and high-intensity interval training.”

“Dr. Aubrey de Grey is a biomedical gerontologist and the founder of the SENS Research Foundation which aims to find technologies that can repair the various types of damage that occur during the aging process. Learn more about Dr. Aubrey De Grey SENS Research Foundation.”

“Obesogenic diets appear to accelerate epigenetic aging, contributing to metabolic dysfunction across multiple generations. Conversely, animal studies suggest that caloric restriction may slow epigenetic aging.”

“Clinical biomarkers examining the methylation profile as an estimator of biological age are expected to be on the market soon. In this clip, Dr. Valter Longo highlights which biomarkers, both currently available and forthcoming, that he considers relevant when assessing longevity and biological age.”

“One gram per day of algae-derived EPA and DHA produced small favorable differences in several DNA-methylation aging measures. Combining omega-3, 2,000 IU of vitamin D3, and a home exercise program produced an additive effect on one clock.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses leafy greens, blueberries, and omega-3s for micronutrients, cognition, mood, and healthy aging.

“However, the DNAm GrimAge epigenetic clock is a highly reliable predictor of healthspan and lifespan, based on DNAm surrogates in blood, including biomarkers of aging and alterations in blood composition.”
