a dose of berry wellness

摘要

What if humans could extend their lives just by consuming A particular type of berry? According to the National Institute on Aging (NIA), that might be possible. Using a model to study life extension, the NIA reported a life extension effect when acai was added to the diet, as reported in Experimental Gerontology. Since that publication, a team of investigators from three universities and the NIA have confirmed the observed life extension effect in a second species, says Alexander Schauss, Ph.D., senior research director of natural and medicinal products research for AIBR Life Sciences Inc., Puyallup, Wash.
