See? I Told You to Bone Up on Senolytics [OK, this is more mouse research... but exciting!] Published Wednesday, 19 September in Nature Magazine ... one of the Super Journals (meaning they are as credible as they come, science-journal-wise), a paper based on research done at Mayo Clinic , a pretty good outfit.   Published:  19 September 2018 Clearance of senescent glial cells prevents tau-dependent pathology and cognitive decline If you keep up on Alzheimer's research, you recognize "tau-dependent," and if you don't, you surely know about cognitive decline. That and memory loss are the heart-ripping Alzheimer's symptoms we'd all like to avoid.  If You Are Interested in the Science Put your science hat on and take a look at the abstract (free) in Nature .

I’ve been doing one variation or another of that for almost 60 years. One of these days, I’ll run over that list and tell you why I use each one. Fascinating stuff; I’m sure you can’t wait. I started with NR based on the reading I referenced here . Added in Pterostilbene after I realized my first NR product Basis by Elysium had it, so I added it as a solo ingredient when I tried Live Cell Research’s Niagen - straight NR.* Trans-re
