Biohacking Beauty: The Anti-Aging Skincare Podcast

Hey everyone, welcome back to Biohacking Beauty! Today, we’re exploring one of the most fundamental mechanisms of aging—telomeres.

However, each time a cell replicates, telomeres shorten, eventually leading to cellular senescence, dysfunction, or apoptosis. In this solo...
