Re: GlyNAC
@Staffan Olsson BulkSupplements.com also sells NAC powder, but it's a bit more expensive: $50/kg.

Re: Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), Blood Autophagy, and Phenotypic Age
@Jimmy2 Another anti-aging bubble burst!☹️ Perhaps the blood autophagy effect requires a larger dose than 400 mg/day. Or perhaps the problem is GLA insolubility and low bioavailability.…

Re: GlyNAC
I just calculated the dosage of the GlyNAC supplements that was used in the Baylor Med study. They say that they administered glycine (1.33 mmol/kg/day) and cysteine (0.81 mmol/kg/day).…

Re: GlyNAC
The study quoted above indicates that the GlyNAC benefits go away when the supplement is halted. That suggests that no epigenetic reprogramming has been achieved.

Re: GlyNAC
That's very interesting. The only source that I see online seems to be Celltrient. They sell 112 x 600 mg + 600 gm caps, taken 2/day, for $60.79. However, I see that Life Extension sells Glycine ($9.…

Re: Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), Blood Autophagy, and Phenotypic Age
@Jimmy Did the -16.24 years come from my Levine Phenotypic Age spreadsheet? It's very hard to get such a low age from that calculation, because Calendar Age is one of the most influential inputs.…

Re: Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), Blood Autophagy, and Phenotypic Age
@Jimmy After your new bloodwork, I look forward to learning what difference there is, if any, in your old and new MCV and RDW values. If there is blood autophagy going on, these should drop.…

Re: Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), Blood Autophagy, and Phenotypic Age
@Jimmy At some point soon, you should arrange for blood tests as inputs for the Levine Phenotypic Age calculation, in order to see if the GLA you have been taking has had any "blood rejuvenating"…

Dihomo-15d-PGJ2: A New Test for Senolytic Effectiveness

Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), Blood Autophagy, and Phenotypic Age

A recent study published in Nature indicates that as mice age, the autophagy mechanism that clears old and damaged red blood cells falters, reducing the effectiveness of their blood circulation.…

Re: Apigenin Increases Muscle Mass And Improves Muscle Function In Both Young And Old Mice

Re: Apigenin Increases Muscle Mass And Improves Muscle Function In Both Young And Old Mice
I take apigenin as a daily supplement. The problem is that apigenin is a flavenoid (like fisetin and quercetin) that has low solubility in water and tends to be broken down by the digestive system,…

Re: Has anyone tried urolithin A?
@Geoff Welch What is your source of urolithin A? Amazon sells Celltrient Strength Capsules that list it as an ingredient, but it costs about $50 for a 2-week supply at 500 mg/day.

Re: Biohackers Perform First Plasma Dilution Experiment on Humans This technique is a human modification of the Conboys' mouse experiments.
Was the Horvath clock reset? As I see it, the unfortunate thing about this study by the Russian biohackers, as well as in the Conboys' work with mice, is that they did not measure the effect of…
