“Most cases of Parkinson’s disease don’t arise from a single factor, but rather, it’s a combination of a person’s genes, lifestyle and what they’re exposed to in the environment.” - Dr. Michael Kobor

Identifying the relation between food groups and biological ageing: a data-driven approach

'Intake of eggs, organ meat, sausages, cheese, legumes, starchy vegetables, added sugar and lunch meat was associated with biological age acceleration, whereas intake of

“Epigenetics is the science of hope. You can’t necessarily reverse genetic mutations, but when you know disease risks result from changes in the epigenome you can potentially negate them.” - Dr. Randy Jirtle, Professor of Epigenetics, NC State University

Earlier this year, despite its remarkable achievements, the National Institute on Aging (NIA) made the decision to withdraw its funding from the Dog Aging Project, jeopardizing the future of this incredible and groundbreaking initiative.

Thankfully, we now have the opportunity

While genetic mutations have been extensively studied in the context of colon cancer, emerging evidence highlights the pivotal role of epigenetic alterations in its pathogenesis. cureus.com/articles/24864…

The findings, published in Nature Communications, show how health interventions had measurable effects on the children in the study at the genetic level—stress response improved, oxidative stress reduced, and DNA #methylation levels lowered.  #epigenetics
