What does it mean to grow old? Put another way, what are the hallmarks of aging? They are questions that have long since intrigued biologists and longevity researchers, with a wide range of theories about what drives the aging process. We understand the impact of weaker muscles, frailty, cognitive challenges and greying hair, but it is the underlying factors – molecular and cellular mechanisms – that researchers are striving to understand. Dr. Davide D’Amico is a research scientist with the Swiss cellular nutrition brand, Timeline Nutrition, where he is studying how compounds derived from plants can be used to reverse muscle decline and boost mitochondrial health.
