Our Members Asked:
Does TA-65 Astragalus Extract Increase Telomere Length and Longevity?
Answer:
TA-65 (sold by TA Sciences) is a branded Astragalus root extract promoted to lengthen telomeres, the protective "end-caps" on chromosomes that may shorten with age, oxidative stress, and certain disease processes. It is sold as an oral supplement in capsules as well as an ingredient in a face cream, TA-65 for Skin, which is promoted to reduce wrinkles and improve the appearance of prematurely aged skin.
We took a deep dive into the evidence around TA-65 and what it has or has not been shown to do – particularly relating to aging and lifespan. We also examined the clinical evidence for TA-65 for lowering cholesterol, blood pressure, liver enzymes and weight, as well as potential risks with TA-65.
