About Longevity
- What they are
- Compounds studied for cellular ageing — mitochondrial function, senescent-cell clearance, telomere and autophagy pathways.
- How they're run
- Mixed routes: some injected in short annual or biannual courses, others taken orally every day.
- What to watch
- Endpoints here are measured in decades, so nobody has human outcome data. Bloodwork and function markers are the only feedback you will get in a realistic timeframe.
