Hello,
This week’s research highlights the growing evidence that healthy aging may be influenced by a combination of medications, nutrition, sleep, cardiovascular health, and other modifiable factors. From the surprising anti-aging potential of a decades-old diabetes drug to new insights into dementia prevention, researchers continue to uncover ways we may be able to protect both our brains and bodies as we age.
Are you part of a health or life extension research organization? Our coalition has grown to over 90 member groups, including 25 major US organizations and 16 major international groups. We hope your organization will be next! Check below to find a link to join our coalition quickly and easily.
All this and more this week. Join us as we move forward into another exciting month of incredible opportunities in this burgeoning and revolutionary field.
