Interesting read, but some dude in comments said it been around for a while and it works well in mice, but it causes cancer in humans?.. Maybe we should find a way to turn humans into mice first and then do all these tricks/remedies and then turn mice back into humans again. LOL
Already covered in these two posts…
Restoring youthful levels of specific subunit of telomerase enzyme reverses multiple hallmarks of aging in mice. Study in Cell Press shows maintaining TERT levels in aged animals reduced cellular senescence, improving memory & neuromuscular function.

TERT activation targets DNA methylation and multiple aging hallmarks
Highlights
TERT has been linked directly or indirectly to all hallmarks of aging
TERT gene is epigenetically repressed with onset of aging markers in all tissues
TAC restores TERT levels to promote telomere maintenance and reprogram gene expression
TAC in aged mice reduces senescence/inflammation and increases neurogenesis/cognition

TAC was shown to reach numerous tissues and organs, including, importantly, the central nervous system, and to be cleared from the organism in about three hours.
This, according to the researchers, was enough to improve multiple hallmarks of aging.
I will combine these threads later today.
