Blueberries indeed are an incredible superfood.The amount needed in one's diet varies to get it's main ingredient-pterostilbene which is intensely studied for anti-neoplastic, anti-oxidant, anti-diabetic, cardiac function and other key metabolic cellular processes. It is chemically similar to resver...

Re: Natural mTOR-inhibitors for longevity

Bioavailablity is the key to acheiving high levels in the target cells for any supplement to work. Strong clinical evidence, especially studies with large sampling sizes are important. Purity of the supplement- what agency verifies this, also important. Supplements don't require the strict scrutiny ...

Re: NEW interview with Dr David Sinclair about longevity, how he takes NMN, sirtuins, metformin and resveratrol and more

Regarding Oral vs Sublingual use of NMN, Sinclair says there is good in both. m1:55 - No good answers on sublingual or not. Microbiome removes a lot of the nicotinomide from NMN and NR before it's taken up by the gut but it makes sense not to put it all through the gut. Some NMN does get through th...

Re: NEW interview with Dr David Sinclair about longevity, how he takes NMN, sirtuins, metformin and resveratrol and more

Many studies have shown increased bioavailability of pterostilbene vs resveratrol. Pterostilbene chemically has two methoxy (OCH3) groups attached to the molecules which has shown to increase oral absorption. Pterostilbene is the main antioxidant in blueberries. Some studies have also show NR taken ...

Re: Anyone is taking rapamycin or metformin?

There are many documented studies that berberine mimics the effect of metformin. Studies have been done which include berberine's ability to stimulate AMP protein kinase (AMPK) which can affect insulin sensitivity, lowering of triglycerides, lowering of blood glucose anti-inflammatory effects, anti-...
