A healthy lifestyle contributes to better biological aging
Can lifestyle changes make you younger? A 2022 large-scale study examining 6,000 adults revealed a positive association between adopting a healthy lifestyle and favorable biological aging markers, including telomere length and mitochondrial DNA content, concluding lifestyle choices promote longevity and vitality.
The Blue Zones study led by Dan Buettner and featured in a best-selling book and Netflix docuseries, conducted over several decades, identified regions globally with exceptional longevity, attributing this to lifestyle factors such as diet, physical activity, social connections, and sense of purpose. The findings underscore the profound impact of healthy habits on extending lifespan and overall well-being.

Enhances cellular energy
AGING MARKER: Mitochondrial Dysfunction
Mitochondria are like cell engines, providing energy (adenosine triphosphate or ATP) for every part of our body. With age, these engines can wear out, causing decreased ATP, increased oxidative stress and impaired cellular energy metabolism.
Infrared light helps by boosting mitochondria with energy, improving function, and making more “engines” when necessary. This could counteract mitochondrial dysfunction, keeping cells healthy and helping to slow aging.
