Although aging is a part of our lives, we can still slow it down. Juvenon is one of the many anti-aging products available on the market. It has received a lot more attention in recent times. Juvenon, a dietary product developed by Dr. Bruce Ames & Dr. Tory Hagen aims to promote healthy aging through cellular health & energy production. This article will explore the science behind Juvenon to see if it is worth the hype.

What is Juvenon

Juvenon, a dietary product, contains two main ingredients: acetyl L-carnitine and alpha lipoic acid. ALCAR, an amino acid, helps transport fatty oils into the mitochondria of the cell where they are used as energy. ALA is a powerful antioxidant that protects the mitochondria against damage caused by free-radicals.

What is Juvenon?

Juvenon’s theory is that it promotes healthy aging through mitochondrial function. Our mitochondria lose efficiency at producing energy as we age. This can cause a variety of age-related problems. Juvenon’s mitochondrial health program aims to improve health and wellbeing by slowing down the aging.

Does Juvenon have any evidence?

Despite the promising science behind Juvenon, the supplement itself has only been the subject of limited research. Studies on ALCAR and ALA as individual ingredients suggest they may offer anti-aging benefits.

In a study published by the journal Aging Cell, ALCAR supplementation increased longevity in mice and improved mitochondrial function. In a study published in Free Radical Biology and Medicine, ALA supplementation was found to improve mitochondrial function and reduce oxidative stress among aging rats.

A few human studies have been conducted on Juvenon. In a study published in Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology, Juvenon supplements improved cognitive function among older adults who had mild cognitive impairment. In a study published in Rejuvenation, Juvenon improved the muscle strength and endurance of older adults.
