    358. Summary: Want to End Chronic Inflammation? This Helps! - Life Extension

    The Future of Inflammation Resolution In this episode of Live Foreverish, Dr. Mike and Dr. Crystal welcome Harvard researcher Dr. Charles Serhan to discuss resolution medicine, a groundbreaking field focused on activating the body's natural inflammation-resolving mechanisms. Dr. Serhan explains how specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs), derived from omega-3 fatty acids like EPA and DHA, actively resolve inflammation rather than simply suppressing it. This show offers promising new strategies for treating chronic inflammatory diseases. #LELEARN #EDULFsocial Guest Bio: Prof. Charles Nicholas Serhan, PhD, DSc is the Simon Gelman Professor of Anaesthesia (Biochemistry and Molecular Pharmacology) at Harvard Medical School and Professor of Oral Medicine, Infection and Immunity at Harvard School of Dental Medicine.

    353. Summary: Spermidine Shows Promise for Boosting Vaccine Response - Life Extension

    Spermidine Shows Promise for Boosting Vaccine Response A 2026 Aging Cell pilot study found that daily supplementation with 6 mg of spermidine was safe and well tolerated in adults over 65 years old following a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine booster. While overall immune responses were not significantly changed, older adults who had previously shown little or no vaccine response experienced notable improvements in anti-spike antibodies, neutralizing activity against multiple variants, and memory B-cell responses. The findings suggest that spermidine may help enhance immune resilience in vaccine non-responders by supporting cellular health and autophagy, a key process that declines with age. #LELearn #EDULiveforeverish
