Recent studies, including one conducted by Shao et al., […]

Autophagy is the name given to a complex collection of processes responsible for identifying and recycling damaged or otherwise unwanted structures in the cell. Typically, a structure flagged for recycling is engulfed by an autophagosome, which is transported to and fuses with a lysosome, and the structure is broken down inside the lysosome by enzymes. An optimal level of autophagy for the maintenance of cell function only occurs in response to stress, including heat, cold, lack of nutrients, toxins, oxidative damage to important molecules, and so forth. Thus mild stresses that inflict relatively little damage to a cell can improve the function of cells, tissues, and organs, leading to a greater resistance to the damage and dysfunction of aging. Most of the well studied interventions […]

Improvements in public health have allowed humankind to survive to older ages than ever before, but, for many people, these added golden years are not spent in good health. Aging is a natural part of life, but it is associated with a greatly increased incidence of most chronic diseases, including various cancers, diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease.

Improvements in public health have allowed humankind to survive to older ages than ever before, but, for many people, these added golden years are not spent in good health.

In today's open access paper, researchers review the evidence for exercise to slow the aging of muscle tissue in part because it improves DNA repair mechanisms. How exactly damage to nuclear DNA contributes to aging beyond creating a raised risk of cancer remains a debated topic, despite recent conceptual advances. Nuclear DNA damage occurs constantly, near all of which is repaired. Yet the remaining damage largely occurs in genes that are not used or that are not all that important, and in cells with few replications remaining. Thus the ability to cause harmful alterations to cellular metabolism throughout a tissue was thought to be limited. The first way in which nuclear DNA damage could meaningfully impact aging is via somatic mosaicism. When mutations occur in […]

Researchers have been publishing more data of late from the CALERIE trial of human calorie restriction that took place over the course of a few years. The participants aimed at a 25% reduction in calorie intake, and ended up achieving something more like 12-15%. The trial started nearly 20 years ago at this point. It is often the case that tissue samples and data remain intact and potentially useful long after the study is complete, awaiting greater funding and interest, as well as the existence of more advanced analysis technologies. Small non-coding RNAs (smRNAs), approximately 20-35 nucleotides in length, represent a diverse class of regulatory molecules that include microRNAs (miRs) and piwi-interacting RNAs (piRs). These nanoscale molecules are key regulators of gene expression, orchestrating complex […]

What determines how long we live—and to what extent is our lifespan shaped by our genes? Surprisingly, for decades, scientists believed that the heritability of human lifespan was relatively low compared to other human traits, standing at just 20–25%; some recent large-scale studies even placed it below 10%.

Researchers found that small doses of an antibiotic can coax gut bacteria into producing a life-extending compound. In worms, this led to longer lifespans, while mice showed healthier cholesterol and insulin changes. Because the drug stays in the gut, it avoids toxic side effects. The study points to a new way of promoting health by targeting microbes rather than the body itself.

Editor's Note: This article is a reprint. It was originally published April 14, 2024. Over the past decade, I’ve written many articles discussing the evidence of biological harm from nonionizing electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation and radiofrequency radiation (RFR) from wireless technologies. The video above features an interview I did with Siim Land in February 2020 for his Body Mind Empowerment podcast in which I discuss EMF — what it is, your greatest sources of exposure, how it affects your biology, and how to minimize your exposure. I also review how the telecommunications industry manipulates the truth to keep you unaware of the hazards. While the wireless industry is built on the premise that the only type of radiation capable of causing harm is ionizing — X-rays being one example — researchers have for a long time warned that even nonionizing and non-heating radiation can jeopardize your health. This includes not only human health, but also that of plants and

Relative to skin elsewhere on the body, facial skin is less prone to scarring following regeneration from injury. Researchers have identified how this difference is regulated, and here demonstrate that they can influence the relevant mechanisms in order to reduce scarring during regeneration of skin injuries elsewhere on the body. It is also possible that further investigation of this biochemistry may yield approaches to reduce scarring more generally. This is of interest in the context of aging, as tissue maintenance becomes dysfunctional in many organs in ways that lead to excessive formation of disruptive small-scale scar-like structures. Surgeons have known for decades that facial wounds heal with less scarring than injuries on other parts of the body. This phenomenon makes evolutionary sense: Rapid healing of […]

The composition of the gut microbiome changes with age. A variety of factors likely contribute, including reduced physical activity, changes in diet, and a decline in the ability of the immune system to keep unwanted microbial populations in check. With age, microbes capable of provoking inflammation grow in number while microbes responsible for generating beneficial metabolites diminish in number. This is not an inevitable fate: the composition of the gut microbiome can be permanently changed by fecal microbiota transplantation. Studies have shown rejuvenation of the aged gut microbiome, improved health, and extended life span following fecal microbiota transplantation from young donor animals to old recipient animals. In human medicine, fecal microbiota transplantation was up until recently conducted in something of a gray area of regulation, […]

A new study suggests that those with long-lived families probably have the best prospects of making it to a very old age.

The human life span could be far more heritable than previously believed, according to international researchers. The team aimed to disentangle death from natural causes and other deaths using mathematical models, simulations of human mortality, and multiple large-scale studies that used twin data. The findings of the analysis show that once deaths from external factors, such as accidents or infectious disease, are accounted for, genetics may explain ~50% of how long we live.

In addition, the study examined whether the dental wear reflects the environmental conditions of the glacial period known as MIS 12, one of the coldest globally, which would have favored a significant expansion of semi-arid vegetation on the Iberian Peninsula around 450,000 years ago.

The therapies developed by Immunis represent the less well trodden path when it comes to the ongoing but still early stages in the replacement of stem cell therapies. This replacement is possible because the benefits provided by presently widespread forms of stem cell therapy result from the signals secreted by those cells in the short period of time before they die. Few such therapies have demonstrated any meaningful degree of long-term engraftment and survival of transplanted cells. Benefits are thus a matter of signals from the stem cells favorably adjusting the behavior of native cells for some extended period of time. The most reliable beneficial outcome of such therapies is a reduction in chronic inflammation. Most efforts to replace stem cell therapies with a logistically […]

Sleep sits at the center of longevity in a way many people underestimate. Large-scale population data show that how long you sleep predicts how long you live — often more strongly than diet, exercise, or social factors. 1 When researchers compared major lifestyle risks side by side, short sleep emerged as one of the strongest drivers of early death, second only to smoking. This means sleep loss isn't a minor lifestyle flaw. It functions as a biological stressor that quietly reshapes how your body ages. When sleep is consistently shortened, your body spends less time repairing tissue, regulating hormones, and restoring cellular energy. Over time, this shifts your body toward faster aging, reduced resilience, and lower tolerance for stress — even in people who otherwise appear healthy. In terms of health priorities, sleep is not something you "fit in" after diet and exercise are handled. It's the biological process that allows every other health strategy to work. To
