Pathways to Longevity - Intracellular Biochemical Pathways Associated with Aging | Product

Presented by: Robert Rountree, MD

The clinicians' task is not to simply extend life, but to decrease or prevent disability or prolonged morbidity. That task has been made easier by recent advances in genomics research and cellular biology. By understanding the underlying molecular events and disrupted signaling pathways thought to be responsible for senescence, disease, and aging, we can determine the most effective strategies to maintain optimal performance and zestful health. This presentation will explore the various factors that can activate or downregulate the primary intracellular biochemical pathways associated with aging and longevity, including AMPK/sirtuins, mTOR, and Nrf2/ARE. We will then review the literature regarding lifestyle practices and dietary supplements that can potentially modulate those pathways in beneficial ways.
