Aging isn't just a fixed, unstoppable process! 🧬 - Dr. Nichola Conlon NUCHIDO

And so I guess the big question is, you know, as we age, why are these processes slowing down?

There are many things that are acting to either speed up or slow down these cellular hallmarks of aging. And I guess one important thing is that the reason that we now know that aging is something that can be slowed or reversed is that for a long time we didn't believe it was possible because we believed that aging was this programmed, fixed thing that once it started, you know, the march of time, it started. There was absolutely nothing you could do to stop it. But what we now know is that actually the reason that a lot of these, these aging processes speed up in our cells is actually not because we've, we've lost some part of our biology, but it's just been turned off. You know, we have everything in our bodies to keep us young and healthy. And that is why when we're young, we are young and healthy because there's processes in ourselves that are keeping us like that. But as we get older, they all become turned down or switched off.
