Which Is More Important for a Longer Life: Telomeres or Cholesterol?

Recently, you've been hearing a lot from us about how lengthening telomeres can increase your lifespan. While you may have doubts about this information coming from Chrissy, consider this from Dr. Joseph M. Raffaele, MD—the co-founder of PhysioAge Medical Group, a clinical practice in New York City that is at the leading edge of the emerging field of medicine focused on scientifically sound approaches to staying younger longer.

"A telomere is the protective cap at the end of a chromosome, the thread-like structure that carries the genetic material of our cells. Think of it as akin to the plastic tips that prevent the ends of a shoelace from fraying. Telomeres keep our chromosomes intact, healthy and functioning—allowing them to reproduce cells, which is the key to healthy aging, if not life itself."

If you're interested in measuring the length of your telomeres, take the test and let us know if you have questions about TA-65 Anti-Aging.
