Mental Performance Is the #1 Factor for Healthy Aging, According to Life Extension Survey

By: via GlobeNewswire

Fort Lauderdale, FL, April 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The adage “age is just a number” embodies feeling young at any age. So what’s more important when it comes to healthy aging: brain or brawn? In a recent survey of 4,100 Life Extension customers, 68% of whom were aged 61 or older, more than half ranked mental performance as the most important factor for feeling young for their age, while physical health came in a distant second place at 24%.† To help people stay ahead of the aging game, Life Extension has launched Healthy Aging Powder, a triple-nutrient blend of taurine for cardiovascular health, lithium for a healthy mood, and spermidine from wheat germ extract to promote memory health.
†February 2024 survey of Life Extension customers.

“We wanted to offer customers a way to promote a healthy aging process, so we focused on finding nutrients that support three cornerstones of aging gracefully: memory and mood health and a healthy heart,” explained Life Extension’s Vice President of Product Development, Glenn MacEachern, MBA.

According to Michael A. Smith, MD, Life Extension’s Director of Education, aging healthily goes beyond flexing strong muscles; it also depends on heart health and, yes, cognition. “Physical health is a no-brainer when it comes to healthy aging, but many don’t realize that maintaining cognitive health and performance, including a healthy mood, is also crucial,” Dr. Smith said. “We’ve come to accept our working memory slowing down and our mood souring as the norm. But we don’t have to take age-related cognitive decline for granted. By tweaking our lifestyle, we can support memory health and maintain a healthy mood at every age.”

Dr. Smith recommends choosing a dietary supplement that addresses the trifecta of healthy aging—memory and mood health, and a healthy heart—as a proactive way to make those later years truly golden.

Healthy Aging Powder is a new addition to Life Extension’s longevity supplements line, which also includes Optimized Resveratrol Elite™ to help protect against oxidative stress and NAD+ Cell Regenerator™ to support healthy cellular energy pathways. The easy-mix, unflavored powder blend contains no genetically modified ingredients.
