Boost Telomerase Activity by 6X - Omega 7

Telomeres, the protective caps at the ends of our chromosomes, play a crucial role in aging. As cells divide, telomeres shorten, eventually leading to cellular senescence and an increased mortality rate. A study discovered that individuals aged 60 and over with shorter telomeres faced a nine times higher mortality rate from infectious diseases and a three times higher mortality rate from heart diseases [1]. The progressive loss of telomere length and cellular function due to reduced telomerase activity contributes to aging and the emergence of age-related diseases, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders.

Recent studies have shown that omega-7-rich sea buckthorn oil can increase telomerase activity by six times and double the level of keratinocyte growth factors [2]. Clinical trials further support the advantages of omega-7-rich sea buckthorn oil. In a study involving 60 women aged 50 to 70, supplementation with sea buckthorn oil resulted in a 49% improvement in skin hydration, a 26% increase in skin elasticity, and a 9% reduction in wrinkles [3]. Another trial demonstrated that sea buckthorn oil could help modulate serum lipid profiles (increasing HDL while lowering LDL) and improve eczema symptoms, such as redness and dryness [4].
