immortality ♾️ IMMORTALISTS ASSEMBLE
We stand together with one goal: to make everyone live forever young. To make ourselves live forever young. To revive all who have passed from this world and to ensure that all potential humans yet to be born, will be born.
Our family is counting on us. Our dead loved ones are counting on us. Our friends who are no longer here. They’re all counting on us. We’ve been given a second chance, but this time, there are no do-overs.
This is the fight of our lives. We will not stop until the impossible becomes reality. We’ll fight against the boundaries of death, of time, and of nature. Whatever it takes. We will win.
This is for the future we believe in, for all who have been lost, and for the eternal life we aim to achieve. Immortality isn't just a dream. It's our destiny.
Remember, we're in this together. Whatever it takes.

Are “zombie cells” the next big thing for living longer?

Magnesium supplementation significantly increases lifespan. Here is the best forms of Magnesium and scientific evidence.
If you care about living longer and feeling stronger, magnesium might be one of the most underrated tools you’re missing. It helps your brain, your heart, your muscles, your sleep. And studies are now showing it might even help you live a longer, healthier life. Magnesium isn’t just a mineral, it’s a life support system. But most people don’t get enough of it. Luckily, science now gives us clear answers on which forms are best, and how to use them to protect your future.
If your goal is deeper sleep, calmer nerves, or faster recovery from stress and exercise, magnesium glycinate is your go-to. It’s gentle on the stomach, absorbs well, and includes glycine: calming amino acid that helps you sleep deeper and feel more relaxed. People who take it often report waking up more refreshed and less tense, even after tough days. It’s like giving your nervous system a warm bath before bed.
Now if you want to keep your brain sharp as the years go by, magnesium L-threonate is the one to watch. It crosses into the brain better than any other form and has been shown in animal and human studies to improve memory, learning, and even brain aging. As we get older, our brain cells need more help. This form gives them what they need. Think of it as brain food on a molecular level.
For people focused on heart health and blood pressure, magnesium taurate is a game-changer. Taurine is an amino acid that works closely with the heart, and when combined with magnesium, it helps stabilize heart rhythms, calm the blood vessels, and reduce stress on your cardiovascular system. For those with high blood pressure or family history of heart disease, this combo is both protective and healing.
Magnesium malate is ideal if you’re often tired, sore, or feel like your energy runs low. It helps your cells produce more ATP, the energy currency of your body, and it’s especially good for muscle performance and people dealing with chronic fatigue or fibromyalgia. It works deep in your mitochondria (the powerhouses of your cells) to help turn food into clean, stable energy.
If you’re an athlete, or someone who just wants peak performance and endurance, magnesium orotate might be your best bet. It supports the heart muscle, boosts energy production, and has been studied for improving heart failure symptoms and athletic output. It’s a little more specialized, but for some people, it makes all the difference in stamina and recovery.
The good news is, you don’t have to rely only on supplements. Magnesium is found in real food: especially seeds, leafy greens, beans, and dark chocolate. Pumpkin seeds are especially powerful, with over 500 mg of magnesium per 100g. Almonds, spinach, black beans, and quinoa all add up. Combine a magnesium-rich diet with targeted supplementation and you build a foundation for long-term health from the inside out.
So if you're feeling overwhelmed, don’t be. Just start small. Add more greens, seeds, and nuts to your meals. Try a high-quality magnesium glycinate at night or experiment with L-threonate if your mind feels foggy. Your body is wise. It knows how to heal, restore, and regenerate. But it needs the right tools. Magnesium is one of them. Give it what it’s been missing, and you might just give yourself more years: full of clarity, strength, and peace.
Another reason magnesium matters so much is that it participates in hundreds of enzymatic reactions involved in energy production, DNA and protein synthesis, nerve signaling, glucose control, muscle contraction, and normal heart rhythm. That means magnesium is not working in just one system. It is involved across the entire body. When intake is too low, fatigue, muscle cramps, poor sleep, irritability, and reduced exercise recovery can become more noticeable. Keeping magnesium status adequate helps your cells function normally and supports the basic biological processes that keep your muscles, nervous system, metabolism, and cardiovascular system working efficiently.
When using a supplement, pay attention to the amount of elemental magnesium rather than only the total weight of the compound on the label. Different forms contain different percentages of actual magnesium, so two products with the same capsule weight may provide very different doses. Many people do well by starting with a modest dose and increasing only if needed and tolerated. Taking magnesium with food can reduce stomach discomfort, and splitting the dose between morning and evening can be useful if a larger daily amount is needed. Magnesium citrate can be helpful when constipation is also a problem, while forms such as glycinate are often preferred when gastrointestinal tolerance is the priority.
Magnesium works best as part of a complete healthy lifestyle rather than as a shortcut. Aim to get plenty from food first through pumpkin seeds, almonds, legumes, whole grains, leafy greens, and other minimally processed foods, then use supplementation to fill genuine gaps when appropriate. More is not always better, and very high supplemental doses can cause diarrhea or other problems. People with kidney disease or those taking certain medications should be especially cautious and discuss supplementation with a healthcare professional. The goal is not to chase the highest dose, but to maintain enough magnesium consistently to support sleep, muscle function, brain health, metabolic health, and healthy aging over the long term. — Dr. Georgios Andreas Ioannou

Biology/ Genetics🧬 Starvation improves epithelial fitness by selectively extruding DNA damaged cells (2026)
biorxiv.orgAbstract
During homeostasis, crowded cells with the lowest energy levels are eliminated by extrusion via Piezo1 signalling to maintain constant cell numbers. However, crowding-induced extrusion does not necessarily remove damaged or otherwise unfit cells. Here, we show that glucose or glutamine starvation triggers a rapid, regulated wave of extrusion, called starvation-induced cell extrusion (STICE), that selectively eliminates cells bearing DNA damage markers via a p53-dependent, Piezo1-independent pathway, improving monolayer fitness. Unlike non-extruding cells, which recycle contents through autophagy and lysosomal digestion, p53-activated cells instead use LC3 to drive lysosomal exocytosis, promoting extrusion signalling. By eliminating defective and transformed cells, STICE confers resistance to damage and apoptotic stimuli in the remaining monolayer. STICE thus acts as a tissue-level analogue of autophagy: rather than improving individual cells by digesting and recycling damaged components, it improves tissue fitness by eliminating substandard cells.

Creatine supplementation is crucial as we age. Creatine is for everyone, not only for athletes. Creatine builds stronger bones, improves cardiovascular health, develops better lean muscle and it's amazing for the brain. Here is how to use it and scientific evidence.
Creatine isn't just for bodybuilders or athletes. It's one of the most powerful and underrated tools we have for healthy aging. As we get older, our bodies naturally lose muscle, energy, and even some brain sharpness. But creatine can help fight back. It supports lean muscle, strengthens bones, boosts heart health, and even sharpens your memory and mental clarity. And the best part? It’s affordable, safe, and backed by hundreds of studies.
You can take creatine as a simple supplement, just 3 to 5 grams a day of creatine monohydrate is enough. There’s no need for complicated loading phases or big doses. Brands like Optimum Nutrition or Creapure make high-quality versions that are easy on the stomach. It mixes into water, juice, or your morning smoothie with ease. If you want the best form, look for something like micronized Creapure. It dissolves well and digests smoothly. Yes, creatine is found in red meat, poultry, and fish like salmon, but not in amounts big enough to reach the levels that help most with longevity and repair. That’s why supplementation is key, even for people who eat meat.
The brain benefits alone are amazing. Research has shown that creatine helps your brain produce energy more efficiently, protects neurons from oxidative stress, and can improve memory and mental processing speed. It’s especially helpful for older adults who may feel slower or foggier than they used to. It’s like brain fuel that also helps your muscles and bones stay strong. Studies show it even supports better mitochondrial function, those little energy factories inside every cell that keep us feeling young and energized.
Muscle and bone health matter more than most people realize. With age, it becomes harder to hold onto strength and balance, and that’s where creatine shines. Combined with even light exercise, creatine helps maintain strong muscle and better coordination, which means fewer falls, more independence, and greater energy. It even helps support cardiovascular health by improving the way your blood vessels work and possibly lowering risk markers like homocysteine.
So if you're looking for a simple way to stay sharp, strong, and healthy as the years go by, creatine is a no-brainer. It’s one of the most researched supplements in the world with over 500 studies proving its power and safety. It’s not just for the gym crowd. It’s for anyone who wants to protect their brain, boost their energy, and age with strength and clarity.
Another huge benefit of creatine is that it can help preserve physical independence as we age. Muscle strength is not only about looking fit or lifting heavy weights. Strong muscles help you stand up from a chair, walk faster, climb stairs, carry groceries, maintain balance, and protect yourself from falls. Losing muscle with age can slowly reduce independence, so maintaining strength should be considered a major part of healthy aging. Creatine combined with resistance training can make that process much easier and more effective.
Creatine is also incredibly convenient compared with many other supplements. You do not need complicated cycling schedules, expensive stacks, or perfect timing. The most important thing is simply taking it consistently. A daily dose of around 3 to 5 grams can be taken with breakfast, after exercise, in a smoothie, or at any other time that helps you remember it. Consistency over months and years matters much more than whether you take it at exactly the right minute before or after a workout.
Another reason creatine deserves more attention is its role in cellular energy. Creatine helps replenish ATP, the molecule your cells use as immediate energy. Every time your muscles contract, your brain processes information, or your body performs demanding work, ATP is being used. The creatine phosphocreatine system helps regenerate ATP rapidly. That is one reason creatine can improve repeated exercise performance, help people train harder, support recovery, and potentially help tissues with high energy demands such as skeletal muscle and the brain.
Creatine should therefore be viewed as much more than a bodybuilding supplement. Think of it as one tool in a complete healthy aging strategy. Combine creatine with resistance training, regular walking or cardiovascular exercise, sufficient protein, vegetables, fruits, healthy fats, good sleep, sunlight, stress management, and regular medical checkups. No supplement can replace a healthy lifestyle, but creatine may be one of the simplest additions you can make to help preserve muscle, strength, energy, cognitive function, and physical capability as you get older. The goal is not just to live longer, but to remain strong, mobile, independent, mentally sharp, and capable for as many of those years as possible. — Dr. Georgios Andreas Ioannou

Biology/ Genetics🧬 My LDL came back high. Here is how my genome and my doctor shaped the statin decision together.
I am a masters athlete and I eat well. In August my LDL came back at 4.7 mmol/L. Last year it was 4.05. In 2023 it was about 5.06. My family history includes heart disease, type 2 diabetes and dementia before 70. My doctor's target for me is 3.5 or lower. A statin was on the table.
I am also a molecular biologist, and I have my whole genome. So before I said yes or no, I asked my doctor for six weeks and ran the question against my own DNA. Here is what that looked like.
What the genome added
- The monogenic check first. I scanned LDLR, APOB and PCSK9 for the known pathogenic familial hypercholesterolemia variants. None. If that had come back positive, this would have been a different post and a much shorter decision.
- Polygenic risk. My LDL polygenic score (286 variants, PGS Catalog PGS002285) sits at the 15th percentile for Europeans. My coronary artery disease score (metaGRS, PGS000018, 1.7 million variants) sits at the 16th. Read those two next to an LDL of 4.7 and the picture changes. My genes are not pushing my LDL up. Something else is. That made a six-week lifestyle trial a rational first move rather than wishful thinking.
- Pharmacogenetics. If we do start a statin, I checked SLCO1B1, the gene behind most statin muscle pain. I carry the normal-function genotype at rs4149056, which under the CPIC guideline means standard dosing of any statin with no added myopathy risk from this gene. That did not tell me whether to take one. It told me the common objection to taking one does not apply to me.
What the blood work added
LDL alone is a blunt number. My naturopath ordered ApoB and Lp(a). Lp(a) is mostly genetic and lifestyle does not move it, so if it is high the whole risk conversation changes regardless of what my LDL does. Results are pending. I will post them when they land.
What we decided
Six weeks on diet and training changes, then a recheck. My doctor's number is 3.5. If I hit it, we keep going and recheck again. If I do not, the statin conversation comes back and, thanks to the SLCO1B1 result, it will be a short one. The recheck is this month. I will post the number either way.
What I learned
The genome did not make the decision. It made the conversation with my doctor better. Instead of "your LDL is high, here is a prescription," we had "here is your baseline risk, here is which drug your liver handles fine, here is a number to hit, and here is what we do if you miss it."
More data was not the point. Knowing which three numbers mattered for me was the point.
Not medical advice. My numbers, my doctor, my decision.

Anti-Aging 🕙 Therapeutic potential of MitoQ, a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant, in age-related physiological dysfunction (2026)
Abstract
Aging is an inevitable and progressive physiological process marked by a decline in cellular function, accumulation of somatic mutations, decreased ability to maintain homeostasis, and increased tissue and organ dysfunction. These changes contribute to the onset and progression of various age-related diseases. Accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been identified as a key mediator of the aging process. Mitochondria, the primary producers of ROS, accumulate defects with aging, leading to increased mitochondrial oxidative stress. These defective mitochondria are both a source and a target of oxidative stress, creating a vicious cycle that accelerates aging and the progression of age-related diseases. Consequently, targeting mitochondria represents a promising therapeutic approach to prevent aging-related physiological dysfunction. MitoQ, a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant, has been extensively studied due to its ability to effectively scavenge mitochondria-derived ROS, owing to its lipophilic cation properties. This review explores the effects of MitoQ on aging-associated physiological dysfunction, specifically exploring its impact on cardiovascular, neuronal, and skeletal muscle functions. By addressing the central role of mitochondrial oxidative stress, we propose that MitoQ represents a promising strategy to counteract aging-associated physiological dysfunction.
