The Future Of Aging? The New Drugs & Tech Working To Extend Life & Wellness

Senolytics. Blood transfusions. Placenta stem cells. These are just some of the innovative ways that startups are tackling mortality and increasing the human lifespan. In this report, we dive into each one and track what progress has been made in the quest to find the elusive fountain of youth.

 
How can we live longer? How do we become healthy enough so that we can extend our lifespans by 5, 10, or even 50 extra years?

And it’s not just about living longer, but also feeling younger. For example, what if you could feel 25 at the age of 75?

These are the big questions that scientists have been trying to answer for decades, with few answers.

Understanding how we age on a physiological level is an incredibly complex topic. It shares many of the cellular and molecular processes that underlie age-related diseases like cancer or Alzheimer’s, which continue to elude us in their pathology.

While aging itself isn’t a treatable disorder or condition, companies and researchers focused on longevity are looking at bodily processes at the cellular level to see how aging progresses and trying to find the right drugs, treatments, and vitamins that might slow these processes down.

And as a result, we may discover the key to longevity, or living a longer life.

For instance, a new class of drugs known as “senolytics” are now being touted as the next big thing in anti-aging research for getting rid of decrepit (but harmful) cells that stop dividing as we age, known as senescent cells.
