Spermidine
10 mg, 120 capsules Item # 57951
Adds to the diet a molecule that declines with aging
Spermidine is a natural molecule present in all living organisms.1 It occurs in foods such as wheat germ, soybeans, nuts, and some fruits and vegetables, and is made by bacteria in the intestine.1
Spermidine has antioxidant properties, enhances mitochondrial metabolic function and supports memory, cognitive function and a healthy inflammatory response.1,2 It is involved in a number of biologic processes, such as tissue generation, cell growth and proliferation, DNA and RNA stabilization and autophagy, which is the cells’ recycling system that breaks down damaged or old cell components.3 Autophagy helps protect against disease and premature aging.
Spermidine’s benefits have led to the suggestion of its use as a calorie restriction mimetic.1
During aging, the body’s spermidine concentrations decline due to several factors.1 This can be counteracted by consuming foods that have high levels of spermidine or adding spermidine to a nutritional regimen to help restore levels to those of younger people.
