Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

TA-65 MD® is pure, natural, plant-based compound that can help maintain or rebuild telomeres. A telomere is a region of repetitive DNA at the end of a chromosome, which protects the end of the chromosome from deterioration. They shorten during cell division and eventually signal an irreversible state of growth arrest known as cellular senescence. The length of a person's telomeres is an indicator of his or her overall health status; short telomeres have been associated with cellular aging and dysfunction.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the effects of TA-65 MD® on telomere length and on immunosenescence in subjects who have had 9 months of twice daily TA-65 MD® administration, compared to placebo. TA Sciences has developed different doses of TA-65® . The study intends to determine effect of four different doses of TA-65 MD® in terms of biomarkers, telomere length and overall health and sleep status.
