Exciting new research update! 💫 A recent study from Singapore, published in Nature, revealed that blocking the protein IL-11 can extend the lifespan of middle-aged mice by about 25%. This highlights IL-11's significant role in chronic inflammation. This discovery not only opens potential avenues for human longevity treatments but also reinforces the crucial role of chronic inflammation in aging—something glycans can accurately detect. Stay tuned as we continue to explore these exciting developments! https://lnkd.in/guvdqyFH

About us
An introduction to GlycanAge® Our modern lifestyle has drastically changed the way we live and can impact our health for better or for worse. How can you gain a more complete picture of the current state of your health? Science has revealed a significant element that up until recently has largely been overlooked. Your biological age. While you have no control over the process of aging chronologically, your health and lifestyle can have a significant effect on your biological age. Your biological age is therefore not necessarily the same as your chronological age. Only about 54% of biological aging is determined by your genes, with about 46% being influenced by environmental factors. GlycanAge is a simple, ground-breaking test that analyses your glycobiology. Taking a GlycanAge® test is a vital step to improving your health. Your test results enable you to become aware of and monitor your biological age. This not only offers you an accurate insight into the current state of your health but can give you the powerful tool to make an informative decisions about lifestyle choices and changes.

🌿 𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘆 🌿 24/7 - This symbolic date was chosen because self-care CAN and SHOULD be practiced - 24 hours a day / 7 days a week. There are two parts of self-care: ️➡ Self-care actions - daily practices, habits, and choices. Whether one would focus on increasing their physical activity, improving their food choices, or focusing on their mental health - as long as this helps them live a healthier life, they are in the right direction. ➡ Self-care interventions - all the evidence-based tools that support self-care. They include quality medicines, devices, diagnostic, and digital tools. GlycanAge focuses on both self-care actions & interventions: ✅ Science-backed biological age test to help you measure your current health & improve your future health. ✅ One-on-one consultation with one of our longevity specialists and an action plan with further steps. But no matter how many interventions you introduce, it’s the self-care actions that help you live better. ✨ To help you take care of yourself and live better, GlycanAge wants to offer you a 24% discount for the next 7 days.

What an unforgettable weekend we had at the Health Optimisation Summit 2024! Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude and inspiration from the incredible experiences and connections we made. One of the most profound moments was when our beloved COO, Zorrie Dimitrova, shared her deeply personal and emotional health journey on stage. Her story, filled with resilience and vulnerability resonated with so many. We saw tears, we heard stories, and we felt the strength of a community that truly understands and supports each other. The summit was indeed a whirlwind of excitement and discovery. We explored cutting-edge health technologies, met with innovative brands, forged new friendships with like-minded individuals, as well as met with old friends passionate about health and longevity. Indivuduals like Dr Nichola Conlon from NUCHIDO TIME , Zora Benhamou, Leslie K., Tony Wrighton, Lucy and Joey from Sweaty AF podcast, and many many more, are a testament for what true inspirers in the longevity field mean. We are happy to know you and be part of what you do! A huge and heartfelt thanks to Tim Gray and the entire Health Optimisation Summit team! Your dedication and hard work made this event a spectacular success and an inspiring experience for all of us. To everyone who stopped by our booth, shared their story, or simply smiled in passing - thank you!
