Supplementation with urolithin A may improve immune function as we age, in addition to improving muscle strength, exercise performance, and biomarkers of mitochondrial health, including mitophagy. Urolithin A has produced ~10–12% improvements in lower-body strength, as well as

My current thesis is that plaque formation in arteries should be re-framed as a problem of chronic, unrepaired endothelial injury anchored disordered light choices A mismatch between damage and repair that should not even get to the stage of lipoprotein infiltration into the
It turns out that endothelial progenitor cells that repair endothelial damage run on circadian timing AND are highly sensitive to nitric oxide (NO) signally Melatonin also enhances endothelial progenitor survival and migration Melatonin from NIR rich daylight and dark nights

Thomas Seager is right — our relationship with time has biological consequences. Indigenous and ancestral societies lived in cyclical time, guided by the sun, moon, and seasons, while modern society lives in linear time, ruled by clocks, deadlines, and artificial light. That
Time is not linear "Time" is a socially constructed concept invented to solve social problems. It cannot be measured directly. It can only be modeled by machines. In an agricultural society, the concept of time requires greater resolution. Clocks are irrelevant. The idea of

Why does the naked mole rat have the longest lifespan and healthspan of any rodent, nearly 40 years? A 30-year long mystery unraveled @ScienceMagazine today! Its cGAS enzyme in cells has 4 missense mutations that upends its function, promoting DNA repair and suppressing

Hey, any chance you can fix this pothole that’s been reported to @cityofboston and blown up my tires twice & presumably many others @MayorWu @VisitBostonCity Thanks
