Vitamin C has been found to rejuvenate aging skin by reactivating genes that drive cell growth, restoring thinning or damaged skin. This discovery presents a new way to improve skin's appearance by going deep below the surface of it.

Coffee doesn’t just perk up your brain, it might be flipping important switches inside your cells, too. While known for boosting alertness and offering some health perks, caffeine also tinkers with cellular behavior.

Harnessing the power of a metabolite produced in the kidneys and absorbed from certain foods can mimic the health benefits delivered by exercise, regulating inflammation and promoting an array of anti-aging processes without any physical activity.

In a massive study of nearly 50,000 women spanning 30 years, researchers found that drinking more coffee – to a point – during the ages of 40-65 was linked to less chronic disease, physical mobility issues and cognitive decline in later life.

In a large study, the drug leading the charge in anti-aging science has shown to be just as effective in protecting cells and cognitive function as cutting calories or intermittent fasting. It's the most comprehensive study of rapamycin yet.

A protein found in our cells has emerged as a secret weapon against biological aging, acting like a glue to repair damaged DNA and ward off neurological degeneration including that seen in motor neuron, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.

Boo the Whippet was the first patient enrolled in a clinical trial of a life-extending drug for senior dogs. A milestone has been reached in the ongoing trial, with 10-year-old Miniature Dachshund Winston being the thousandth dog to enrol.

Apparently, salmon sperm injections are the new big thing in anti-aging or rejuvenating facial treatments. Once the reaction to the treatment’s ingredients subsides, the obvious question is: Is there any science behind the celebrity-backed treatment?

Taking a vitamin D supplement can knock years off your biological aging, according to the results of a large, long-term study. This may not seem like a lot, but it's a significant amount as you become increasingly susceptible to disease as you age.

A rice wine native to the Philippines has grabbed the attention of researchers looking into new, natural ways to slow biological aging. But it's not the wine itself – sorry – in the spotlight, but what's leftover after the liquid is ready to bottled.

While the price of eggs is unlikely to dip anytime soon, it might be time to find other sources of one of their key nutrients – omega-3. New research on the polyunsaturated fatty acid has uncovered encouraging signs that it can slow biological aging.

A new study is presenting a radical new theory of aging, suggesting two competing theories are actually intertwined. And even more controversially, the billions of dollars being invested in anti-aging treatments may be targeting the wrong mechanism.
