Longevity & Healthy Aging
Aging is not one thing — it is shortening telomeres, tiring mitochondria, accumulating "zombie" senescent cells, and a slow decline in the body's cleanup systems. This section maps what the science actually knows: interactive animations of the aging mechanisms themselves, the longevity molecules from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and spermidine to plain old glycine, and the protocols and practices — fasting, sauna, cold, exercise — people use to push back. One promise throughout: the evidence tier is stated plainly. Where a compound has only worm-and-mouse data, the page says so.
