what are telomeres?

Age Reversal and Increased Longevity

Telomeres are the protective end caps of a chromosome made up of DNA sequences and proteins (TTAGGG).

Telomeres protect chromosome ends during cell division, preventing gene loss, like shoelace caps.

This could alter genes, causing cell death, cancer, or diseases.

Telomeres shorten with age, and metal reactivity speeds this, raising the risk of age-related diseases.

WHAT DO WE MEAN BY AGE-REVERSAL OR ANTI-AGING?

IT’S NOT THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH – IT’S THE SCIENCE OF TELOMERE ELONGATION

Telomir-1 is a novel oral small molecule metal ion regulator designed to extend telomere caps, maintain cellular balance, and combat oxidative stress, a key driver of aging and disease progression. By modulating essential metal ions such as iron, and copper, Telomir-1 may help protect against age-related conditions, including Progeria (a rare genetic disorder that causes rapid aging in children), Wilson’s disease (a genetic disorder leading to toxic copper buildup in the body), and Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), as well as Type 2 Diabetes, cancer, and Alzheimer’s disease.
