It was the aim of this study to objectively and subjectively evaluate the impacts of a nutritional intervention as compared to placebo on the appearances of hair, skin, and nails in middle-aged adults.
Dietary consumption of food supplements has been found to modulate skin functions and can therefore be useful in the treatment of skin aging. However, there is only a limited number of clinical studies supporting these claims. In this double-blind, placebo-controlled Continue reading →
Mitochondrial dysfunction can drive cellular senescence, which is accompanied by changes in metabolism and increases in senescence-associated secretory phenotypes. Although pyruvate, a key metabolite for numerous aspects of metabolism, has been used as general supplement in synthetic media, the physiological Continue reading →
Collagen-based supplements have become a keystone in the management of the ageing process, with proven ability to repair skin damage, bestowing a youthful and healthy appearance sought in the pursuit of beauty. Collagen is an essential scaffold protein that gives Continue reading →
Never in our generation’s lifetime has our immune system been more important than in the current viral pandemic. Seldom has the constant emphasis of good lifestyle habits been more appropriate to support our immunity Continue reading →
The cofactor nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) – once consigned to the oblivion of metabolic pathway wall charts – has recently attained celebrity status as the link between metabolic activity, cellular resistance to stress or injury, and longevity.
Restoring a mitochondrial metabolite slows stem cell loss and aging. Cell Metabolism.
NAD was discovered over a century ago, and its role in cells as a redox conduit in metabolism was subsequently established. More recently, its oxidized form, NAD+, resurfaced Continue reading →
