Zombie cells, scientifically known as senescent cells, are damaged or aged cells that refuse to die when they should. Instead, they linger in the body, releasing harmful chemicals that can trigger inflammation and accelerate aging. These cells have been linked to a range of age-related diseases, including arthritis, Alzheimer’s, and even cancer.

Dive into the eerie world of 'Zombie Cells' on our latest episode! Uncover how these undead cells wreak havoc in our bodies and what cutting-edge research reveals about their role in aging and disease.
