Healthy Ageing & Longevity
Healthspan, strength, falls, brain ageing, biological-age tests and longevity supplements separated into evidence and speculation.
About this classroom
Healthy ageing means preserving function, independence, cognition and connection. This classroom starts with outcomes that matter and then tests the biomarkers and supplement claims against them.
Where the evidence stands: The most dependable longevity evidence concerns risk-factor control, activity, smoking, vaccination and social conditions. Most anti-ageing products do not have lifespan evidence in humans.
