Many factors contribute to the aging process. In particular, oxidative damage is said to be the leading cause of aging. However, scientists may have just found a way to slow down aging. In a research published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers found that niacinamide or vitamin B3 can protect against oxidative damage and delay the onset of aging.

Vitamin B3 or nicotinamide riboside chloride – or simply niacin – is one of the eight B vitamins. It plays a key role in digestive, skin, hair, and nerve health. Read more

Fasting and calorie restriction can delay the signs of aging,a  researcher finds. This may be old news, but it's worth repating since its the only scientifically proven anti-aging method.'

If you want to age gracefully, consider changing your lifestyle. The food you eat, and whether you smoke and drink may affect the way you look.

A researcher claims that fasting can slow down aging, pointing to a landmark study made in 2017 which revealed that adults age 0.6 years slower if they consume 25 percent less calories per day. This diet is similar to the diet of a grown man who consumes 1,875 calories within a 24-hour period or 1,500 calories for a woman, that is if guidelines are considered. The researcher, Rozalyn Anderson, said that people are often unaware of the “amazing fact” that wrinkles can be prevented.

Making Up for a Genetic Flaw With Vitamin C

Bill Sardi reveals how a genetic mutation cut short the human lifespan, and how we can make up for this genetic flaw with vitamin C supplementation.

Over a decade ago I wrote an article at LewRockwell.com entitled Can Humans Live Longer? The Missing Anti-Aging Hormone.

I explained the biological predicament of humans, that a gene mutation occurring long ago in human history shortened the human lifespan. Gulonolactone oxidase is among four liver enzymes most animals utilize to internally convert sugar to ascorbate (vitamin C). A mutation in the GULO gene for this enzyme also occurs in fruit bats, guinea pigs and primate monkeys and has forced these species along with humans to totally rely upon dietary sources of vitamin C to maintain health.

In the 1970s biochemist Irwin Stone explained that animals that make their own vitamin C live 8-10 times beyond their age of physical maturation. Mammals without this ability have a difficult time reaching 3-4 times. Today humans reach physical maturity around age 18 and live 70-90 years. If what is known from animals can be applied to humans, restoration of internal synthesis of vitamin C could theoretically produce humans that live hundreds of healthy years. Read more

Sex Is Better for Your Memory Than Sukoku

Sex is better for your memory than Sudoku according to health expert Delia McCabe.

Sex has the reputation for being a great form of exercise - a lively session between the sheets is roughly equivalent to 20 minutes of doubles tennis or walking uphill, 33 minutes of golf on a driving range, 40 minutes of yoga or 19 minutes of light rowing.

And research is now showing that sex provides a ’triple-whammy’ of benefits by combining a workout for the heart and lungs, the release of hormones that could lower stress and the production of new brain cells. Read more

Can pomegranates really add years to your life - and fight cancer?

They're the trendy fruit that are the latest must-have ingredient for salads and juices, even cocktails. But could pomegranates help you live longer, too?

Last week, Swiss scientists suggested that the Middle Eastern fruit may strengthen ageing muscles and add years to your life.

This is down to chemicals called ellagitannins, which are found in high levels in the fruit.

Our gut bacteria turn these chemicals into a compound called urolithin A, which helps keep the mitochondria (tiny battery packs that power the body’s cells) charged. Read more

“Is that you, Daddy?”

It was a good question, from my youngest daughter, who stumbled across my corporate I.D. card in my wallet. The picture was taken in 2003, right after I started at Men’s Health.

She was asking the question not because I looked 8 years younger, but because I looked 20 pounds heavier.

“It’s me, sweetie,” I said.

She looked at the picture inquisitively. The 2015 version of me isn’t all that different from the guy on the I.D. card, and yet she hardly recognized me. In short: Read more

5 Ways to Build a Younger Brain

New research can now identify markers of diseases like Alzheimer's much earlier than ever before. Learn how to protect yourself starting today.

When a recent Northwestern University study discovered the hallmark Alzheimer’s proteins in the brains of 20 year olds, many wondered: Is brain health a younger person's concern?

After all, these are the youngest human brains to date in which amyloids, the signature proteins, have been found. And while the majority of people impacted by dementia and Alzheimer’s are older than 65, experts will tell you that taking action now could help prevent damage down the line.

You may have more control than you realize, says Gary Small, M.D., author of Two Weeks to a Younger Brain: “The brain is sensitive to stimulation from moment to moment—if we are engaging certain neural circuits, they strengthen—if we neglect others, we don’t give the brain the opportunity to strengthen,” Small says. “But whether that impacts one’s risk of Alzheimer’s, we just don’t know.” Read more
