biological aging

A new report argues that the booming longevity industry — anti-ageing treatments, supplements and clinics — is growing faster than the scientific evidence supporting its claims. The piece warns that consumers are being sold promises of extended healthy lifespan before researchers have proven the underlying biology. It calls for stronger scrutiny of a market driven more by hope and investment than by clinical results.

New research reported by Medical Xpress indicates that certain dietary patterns are associated with more favorable blood biomarkers linked to biological aging. The findings suggest that what people eat may influence measurable markers of the aging process, adding to growing interest in nutrition as a tool for healthy longevity.
