Abstract

The world population is aging. In our recent study, we identified that levels of an amino acid called taurine decline during aging. When we used taurine supplementation to reverse this decline, it improved healthspan in worms, mice and monkeys, and lifespan in worms and mice. Thus, taurine deficiency could be a driver of aging and taurine supplementation a potential anti-aging intervention.
