Abstract
Sixteen fundamental mechanisms of aging are analyzed in relation to natural low-molecular-weight geroprotectors from food.
- Aging is associated with the accumulation of molecular and cellular damage.
- Natural compounds from plant and food sources may modulate key aging mechanisms.
- Certain food-derived substances show potential in slowing age-related changes.
- The review highlights specific mechanisms of action at molecular and cellular levels.
- Common food products may contain nutrients that interact with fundamental aging processes.
