Saffron is one of the most expensive spices in the world, with a costly production process. The spice comes from the flower saffron crocus flower or Crocus sativus. The thread-like structures of the flower called stigma give saffron its name. Crocin is the most chemically active component of saffron and one of its […]

Shilajit is a tar-like sticky black substance found mainly in mountainous regions. It is primarily found in the Himalayas and is vastly popular in South Asia. Shilajit has a range of benefits associated with it. It is quite famous for its boosting effects on male sexual wellness and fertility. You can see the dark color […]
Resveratrol (RSV) is a natural polyphenolic compound with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-senescence and antitumor effects. A new study investigated the effects of resveratrol (RSV) on cigarette smoke (CS)-induced skeletal muscle atrophy and cellular senescence in mice. Thirty-two male mice were randomly divided into four groups: the control group (N), the resveratrol group (RSV), the emphysema […]
Fisetin is a flavonoid found in fruits and vegetables and has been shown to have powerful senolytic properties. In a new study, fisetin was shown to prevent immune cells from becoming senescent, allowing them to enter into a state of apoptosis or cellular suicide, a normal process at the end of a cell’s life cycle. […]
Use of NMN supplements was shown to activate Sirtuin-1, one of the body’s self repair enzymes, to repair kidney damage and restore kidney function in mice. (1) Kidney damage accumulates with age As we age, we accumulate kidney scarring and tissue hardening, which can impede the kidneys ability to filter proteins in the blood and […]
Supplementation with HLA may improve joint function, reduce wrinkles and even extend lifespan. What is Hyaluronic Acid? Hyaluronic acid (a.k.a. hyaluronan, HA, or HLA) is a substance naturally found in many areas of the human body including the skin, eyes, and synovial fluid of the joints. Preserves Tissue Hydration More than 50% of the […]
There has been little, if any, head to head research published comparing Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) and Nicotinamide Riboside (NR). However, Dr. Sinclair recently said he takes NMN instead of NR based on research he did that found NR did not work at all, while NMN increased the endurance in older mice such that they were […]
NMN doses of 1,000 mg taken once daily doubles NAD+ levels (middle graph). When taken twice daily, NMN triples NAD+ levels (right graph).
Dr. David Sinclair is a co-founder of Metrobiotech, whose NMN product MIB-626 was used in this research published Feb 19 2022.
Scientists from Baylor College of Medicine in Houston studying glutathione precursors have demonstrated some of the best life extension results ever achieved in mice – increasing their lifespan by 24%.
A study published on April 11, 2022 claims that 600 mg of NMN improves strength, well-being and the biological age in people aged 40-65.
This study confirms NMN supplementation increases blood intracellular NAD levels and improves physical strength and overall health in healthy middle-aged and older men and women.
Resveratrol is a polyphenol derived from plants with antioxidant properties that have been shown to enhance the activation of the body’s own self-repair proteins, called sirtuins. When sirtuins are activated, the effect is delayed aging, which has been demonstrated in a wide spectrum of experimental models, including mammals.
CD38 Increases as We Age and Drives Down NAD+ Levels CD38 is an enzyme that responds to inflammation, and consumes NAD+. Researchers have long known that CD38 levels increase, and that NAD+ decreases as we age. A 2016 study found that the increased levels of CD38 are a primary driver of decreasing levels of NAD+ […]
