That's clinically proven to increase NAD+ levels in the body and in collaboration with Miss Beauty file

This is a picture of Jen Calma at the age of 22 in 1897 she was born in

1876 the same here as the Battle of the Little Bighorn that saw the US Army defeated by Native American tribes on the western frontier

The next year of her life saw Samurai revolt against the Japanese government and by the time

She was 39 Archduke Franz Ferdinand had been assassinated sparking the first world war by the time

she was 114 she witnessed the collapse of the Berlin Wall and by the time of her death in 1997 at the age of

122 years she achieved the longest lifespan of a human ever recorded

everybody has dreamt at some point of living a long life or even an infinite life and

Science has helped with us through the last century with inventions like vaccines and antibiotics

These have helped to dramatically raise humanity's life expectancy at birth across the world like in the United States

where between

1900 and 2010 life expectancy increased from just 47.3 years up to 78.7 years

But further improvements in life expectancy have been slowing lately as medicine has struggled to find cures for more complicated diseases

Because of overdoses, alcoholism, suicide and the opioid crisis

2016 was the first year since 1993 that saw a decline in the American life expectancy

Even still life expectancy in the long run is still increasing around the world and it's unknown currently how far the limit can be pushed

scientists in search of increasing human lifespan point to other organisms with

Dramatically longer lifespans than our own like some giant tortoises that can reach near 200 years and some small freshwater

Animals of the genus Hydra that appear not to age at all one study from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine suggested that

125 years is the maximum age limit that a human could ever reach.

While other scientists like Aubrey de Grey believe the limit could be pushed much further up to even

1,000 years all of these claims have been met with a fair amount of skepticism

So it seems that nobody

Really knows just how far human lifespan can be pushed because of this uncertainty what's become much more important lately

to many scientists instead is

focusing on an

Individual's health span the part of your life where you're healthy there is data

That suggests that most people alive now would be content with having the current expected lifespan

But with an improved health span because chronic diseases become more common the older you get

Increasing a person's lifespan alone likely won't do much to increase their quality of life

Instead improving an individual's health span will add much more value to their life

There are already several different products on the market right now targeting different

Biological pathways that scientists are researching to determine if they can support healthspan

It's important to understand however that all of this is new research

And that these products are not interchangeable

with that being said one of these products is metformin an FDA approved drug that treats type 2

diabetes when used in trials on mice and roundworms the drug improved both their health spans and lifespans

And it's currently undergoing human trials, but other ways supporting healthspan may not require medication at all though

There are three interesting areas of research to highlight here first a recent study found that when mice were allowed to eat only at certain

Times during the day their metabolisms became healthier when this fasting diet was applied to humans who only consumed between

700 to 1100 calories for a period of time each month in lowered blood pressure and reduced the hormone igf-1

Which is linked to both aging and disease.

There's also the technology behind genome editing with CRISPR-Cas9

Which is essentially capable of turning good genes on and bad ones off

If your genes are like a school essay assignment then CRISPR-Cas9 is like the spell check that can edit and correct them.

This technology could specifically target genes that are associated with aging

Finally another method and hot topic for research is by improving NAD+ levels later in your life

Nad is a coenzyme inside every cell of your body

Which scientists believe is one of the most important factors for DNA health, energy creation, circadian rhytm regulation and hundreds of other vital functions.

They can be found in every living cell

But as you get older your levels naturally begin to decline further and further there are many

preclinical and human trials being planned right now for the NAD+ pathway

But in order to try improving health span in the future will need trials for additional methods as well

We don't know how the limits are right now

But I think that's a cause for optimism because the answer might only be limited by our imagination

Everybody deserves to live as healthy a life as possible so if you're interested in learning more about the in-depth science going on behind

Raising your NAD+ levels you can do so by visiting elysiumhealth.com and try their dietary supplement basis based on human clinical trials

People that took the recommended dose of basis saw their nad levels increase by 40%

Basis as a supplement designed for long-term use is

Third-party tested for purity and is based on over 25 years worth of research

NAD+ is essential to the health of your cells and basis will help increase
