Anti-Aging Health Supplements

Resveratrol is a potent antioxidant,  having anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, glucose and lipid regulatory, neuroprotective, and cardiovascular protective effects, therefore, can protect against diverse chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), cancer, liver diseases, obesity, diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease.  Antioxidative Activities Resveratrol has shown strong antioxidant properties in many studies. Resveratrol protects against oxidative stress, one of the primary contributors to many diseases. Anti-Inflammatory Activities Resveratrol has been illustrated to have potent anti-inflammatory activities in many studies. Resveratrol protected from inflammation not only by inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β), but also by inducing anti-inflammatory heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in RAW264.7 macrophages. Immunomodulating Effects Resveratrol has exerted immunomodulating e

Population aging represents a major public health problem worldwide, because current trend in the rise of life expectancy is not accompanied by an increase in health span. This is since aging per se is a primary risk factor for most pathological conditions related to age. Therefore, developing therapeutic modalities to target processes contributing to aging becomes a priority task for the scientific community. Phytochemicals offer great hope for the development of new drug classes for treating aging-associated conditions. These compounds may activate pathways involved in aging, such as autophagy, DNA repair, and counteract aging-related systemic oxidative stress and inflammation. Anti-aging potential was reported for several phytobioactive compounds including curcumin , resveratrol, quercetin, epigallocatechin gallate, berberine and several others. The therapeutic potential of orally administered phytochemicals is, however, significantly limited because of their low gastrointestinal ab

Telomerase is an enzyme that helps maintain telomeres , the protective tips of chromosomes. As we age, our telomeres naturally shorten, contributing to the aging process. Telomerase supplements are designed to promote the lengthening of telomeres, which may help prevent some age-related diseases and improve overall health. What are telomeres?  Telomeres are stretches of DNA at the end of chromosomes that protect the end from deterioration. They shorten each time a cell divides, and when they get too short, cells can no longer divide and die off or become cancerous. Telomere length is a good biological marker of aging, and shorter telomeres usually indicate greater age and a higher likelihood of age-related pathologies. As telomeres provide protection for the genetic material inside DNA, shorter telomeres provide less protection. The shorter the telomere, the more likely a subject is to suffer from disease or age-related illnesses.  What is telomerase?  Telomerase is an enzyme t
