There are now proven ways to address this, to a large extent. Senolytics are drugs and supplements that cause apoptosis of cells, which is the natural elimination of dysfunctional cells our bodies used to always use. Cell parts get recycled. Doing this in older people has been found to be helpful.
Other options revive the cells. GlyNAC does this by removing cellular inflammation. In studies, it allowed 80 year olds to have a walking gait that was faster than that of 30 year olds, for instance, along with many other health factors nearing that of 30 year olds. Also, a supplement called Urolithin A forces mitophagy, which is the apoptosis of just the defective mitochondria in our cells, followed by new mitochondria to replace those just eliminated. Mitochondria our the energy powerhouses in our cells. Imagine taking both together! (My wife and I are currently trying this.)
These have all been previously posted, here on Free Republic, if interested. The GlyNAC daily amount Nestle Celltrient suggests (it bought the patent) is 1,200 mg of glycine and 1,200 mg of NAC a day, but the study with the 80 year olds used over five times that amount. You can make GlyNAC cheaply from those two amino acids bought from a store. For the Urolithin A, which is also available from Nestle, 500 or 1,000 mg a day is what has been used in human trials.
Prior senolytic threads described apigenin, fisetin, and quercetin as possible senolytic options.
Is the biomarker the presence of XX chromosomes in the home?
