Senolytics ⇒ Loperamide and autophagy

Definitely worth a look. This drug induces autophagy and while it has been used to treat diarrhea, it might be so good at its job of autophagy it may treat aggressive brain cancer.

This is almost like a super find and replace tool to clear out bad cells.

I saw this too!

I imagine this will trigger some funds and research. It looks like there are going to be a lot of substances triggering autophagy. Now we just need to know if/when/when stem cell creation is triggered and make that part of our regimen.

So if we can confirm these substances stay clear of healthy cells, we can get pretty excited. We can clear out the bad and inflammation triggering cells. It's like running a subroutine in our bodies. we can generate a set of tools to scrub and renew.

Wow cool find JessicaP...Thanks for sharing.

I am no biochemist. I wonder how closely this resembles Fisetin.

In fact I wonder if they are conducting similar treatments with Fisetin.

I tried oral Fisetin quite some time ago. About 1.5 grams two days apart. Over the next 2-3 weeks I lost (i  am not kidding) about 7 pounds.

I keep wondering if this was essentially dead cell matter leaving my body. I wonder how dead cells (by autophagy) are eliminated.

It would be interesting to see about weight loss within 2 weeks of the second dose.

Great article by the way, but it doesnt tell you how much Loperamide to take in order to achieve Autophagy. I would love to know. Also, Loperamide can be used for withdrawal symptoms from opiates. Loperamide binds to the same receptors in the brain that the opiates do. Crazy I know right?

Right, there is a big difference between stopping diarrhea and inducing auto[hagy. I will keep my eyes open for this.

It may end up being a high dose scenario where you take a lot for 2 days followed my 4 weeks without. Either that or you may get constipated.

Anyway i think the list of anti-aging and healthspan supplements will grow to enormous potential, and it also look as if AliveByScience can lead the charge establishing daily values - as only real life can help get us there.
