#25. Unveiling the Secrets to Longevity and Healthy Aging

Join Sharon Palmer on the Genetics Decoded podcast as we explore the fascinating Clotho gene and its profound impact on aging and longevity. Discover the cutting-edge genetic research that shows how this anti-aging protein functions, the decline it undergoes around the age of 40, and its critical role in various body organs, including kidneys, parathyroid glands, brain, eyes, ears, and pancreas. Learn about practical steps to upregulate this protein and potentially reverse aging. Discover actionable insights on how exercise, diet, and supplements can upregulate Clotho production, helping you to age gracefully and healthily. If you enjoyed the podcast, please subscribe!
