Angela is joined by Andrew Steele, to talk about the world of vitamin supplements and anti-aging compounds, exploring the scientific evidence behind their effectiveness.

The discussion covers the antioxidant theory, the role of free radicals in aging, and the potential impact of supplements like vitamin C, vitamin E, NMN, and rapamycin on lifespan.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Vitamin C and E, known for their antioxidant properties, have shown minimal or negative effects on lifespan in studies.
While antioxidants were once thought to combat free radicals and slow aging, free radicals also serve important functions in the body, such as signalling and immune defence.
Limited evidence for specific anti-aging compounds: Compounds like NMN and NR have shown mixed results in human and mouse trials, with no strong evidence supporting their effectiveness in aging.
Studies in mice have demonstrated that rapamycin can extend lifespan, even when administered later in life, showing potential as an anti-aging intervention.

BEST MOMENTS 

"Vitamin C, for example, doesn't have any effect on lifespan. Vitamin E can actually reduce your lifespan, albeit very slightly, based on the results coming from these studies."

"We now know that it's not quite as simple as that antioxidant theory would imply."

"Rapamycin extended their lifespan anyway. They lived about 10% longer than mice that weren't given the drug."
