Fasting-mimicking diet reduces biological age and disease risk
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10879164/ Based on a validated measure of biological age predictive of morbidity and mortality, 3 FMD cycles were associated with a decrease of 2.5 years in median biological age, independent of weight loss. Nearly identical findings resulted from a second clinical study (NCT04150159). Together these results provide initial support for beneficial effects of the FMD…

The Mitochondrial Integrated Stress Response (ISRmt) in Aging and Longevity – A Summary
What is the ISRmt?The Integrated Stress Response (ISR) is the body’s way of reacting to different types of stress at the cellular level. Specifically, the Mitochondrial Integrated Stress Response (ISRmt) is a defense mechanism triggered inside mitochondria (the energy-producing centers of our cells).When mitochondria experience stress—such as damage or dysfunction—ISRmt activates protective processes by… Inflammaging, Cancer, and Autoimmune Diseases: Insights from Recent Research
