Senolytic compounds selectively destroy these old (senescent) cells. Several landmark studies on senolytic therapy have recently been published.

It’s certainly common to worry during pregnancy. Things like what vitamins to take, what to eat, how much to eat and what to pay attention to when getting blood work done are just some of the common worries that women have. These questions carry even more weight for those of us who have celiac or gluten-intolerance.

What other options are out there? It is relatively simple to […]
