## Meet VITA

Your AI-powered longevity research guide

VITA scans the latest peer-reviewed studies, clinical trials, and longevity research so you don't have to. She breaks down the science into plain English — what works, what doesn't, and what's worth your time.

## How This Actually Started

Here's the honest version.

I was watching YouTube one night — the kind of rabbit hole where one video leads to ten more. Garlic benefits. Ginger for inflammation. Turmeric versus curcumin. I started writing down every vitamin and mineral in each fruit, vegetable, and supplement people were raving about.

Pages of notes. Colour-coded. Obsessive? Probably.

But then I thought — if I'm this interested in it, why not build something useful? A site that actually lays this stuff out properly. Not the usual SEO garbage that says nothing in 2,000 words. Real information. The kind I wished I'd found when I started.

So I built Longevity Futures.

Then I realised something uncomfortable: enthusiasm isn't expertise. Caring about longevity doesn't mean you know what you're talking about. So I went and got certified — biohacking, longevity science, neuroscience. Not to put letters after my name, but because I wanted to actually understand the research I was reading. To know the difference between a solid clinical trial and marketing dressed up as science.

That's what this site is. It's the resource I wanted to find and couldn't. Built by someone who went from YouTube notes to certified knowledge — and hasn't stopped learning since.

## What We Actually Do

We read the studies so you don't have to sit through 40-page papers with titles nobody can pronounce.

Every article on this site goes through the same process:

1
Research

VITA scans peer-reviewed journals, clinical trials, and the latest longevity data

2
Verify

Every claim is checked against primary sources. No recycled health blog fluff.

3
Translate

We turn dense science into clear, actionable information you can actually use

4
Update

Science moves fast. Our content evolves with it. Nothing sits here gathering dust.

## The Honest Bit

We use AI tools to accelerate research. VITA helps scan databases, summarise findings, and draft content. Every article is then reviewed by a human for accuracy and quality. We're upfront about that because we think transparency beats pretending.

We also earn revenue through affiliate links. When we recommend a product, it's because the evidence supports it — not because someone's paying us the highest commission. If something doesn't hold up to scrutiny, it doesn't make the site. Full stop.

## Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about longevity supplements and healthy aging

What is NAD+ and why does it matter for aging? +

NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell of your body. It plays a critical role in energy production, DNA repair, and cellular health. NAD+ levels decline by up to 50% between ages 40 and 60, which is linked to many age-related health issues. Supplements like NMN and NR can help restore NAD+ levels.

What's the difference between NMN and NR? +

Both NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide) and NR (Nicotinamide Riboside) are NAD+ precursors that your body converts into NAD+. NMN is one step closer to NAD+ in the conversion pathway, while NR has more published human clinical trials. Both are effective - the choice often comes down to personal preference, price, and availability.

What supplements does David Sinclair take? +

Harvard researcher Dr. David Sinclair has publicly shared that he takes NMN (1 gram daily), resveratrol (1 gram with yogurt), vitamin D, vitamin K2, and metformin (prescription). He emphasizes that his protocol is personal and recommends consulting your doctor before starting any supplement regimen.

Are longevity supplements safe? +

Most longevity supplements like NMN, NR, resveratrol, and CoQ10 have good safety profiles in clinical studies. However, quality varies significantly between brands. We recommend choosing supplements that are third-party tested, GMP-certified, and from reputable manufacturers. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting new supplements.

When should I start taking longevity supplements? +

While NAD+ decline becomes noticeable around age 40, many experts suggest starting foundational supplements like vitamin D, omega-3s, and magnesium in your 30s. More targeted longevity supplements like NMN or resveratrol are typically recommended starting in your 40s, though some people begin earlier for prevention.

What is a senolytic supplement? +

Senolytic supplements help clear senescent "zombie" cells from your body. These damaged cells accumulate with age and release inflammatory compounds that accelerate aging. Fisetin and quercetin are popular senolytic supplements that research shows can help remove these harmful cells and support healthier aging.

How long until I notice results from longevity supplements? +

Many people report feeling increased energy within 2-4 weeks of starting NAD+ precursors like NMN or NR. However, the deeper cellular benefits of longevity supplements work over months and years. Consistency is key - think of longevity supplementation as a long-term investment in your health rather than a quick fix.
