This study tests whether an apple extract supplement can reduce inflammation linked to aging. You will take the supplement or a placebo for 24 weeks and provide samples at home.
This study tests whether a supplement called Miricell can improve markers of healthy aging and help your cells clean out damaged parts. If you are healthy, between 40 and 70 years old, and willing to follow a specific diet and visit schedule, you may be able to join.
This study tests whether a daily fatty acid supplement (called pentadecanoic acid) can improve red blood cell health and slow down biological aging. You would take capsules daily and make several visits over a period of time to see if these cells show signs of healthier aging.
This trial tests a probiotic supplement called iVS-1 to see if it can slow biological aging in healthy adults aged 40-75. Researchers want to learn if this probiotic may help support health as you age.
This trial tests whether taking collagen peptides before exercise can improve how your muscles adapt to strength training. It could help you build muscle more effectively.
