Psilocybin Extends Lifespan, Improves Health in Mice Study
Recent research from Emory University suggests that psilocybin, the active ingredient in magic mushrooms, may significantly extend lifespan and improve health quality in aging, as demonstrated by a 30 percent longer lifespan and healthier appearance in treated mice. In contrast, a long-term Mediterranean diet intervention did not improve cognitive function in older African American adults, despite resulting in meaningful weight loss. Additionally, a study on Jarlsberg cheese found it may help lower cholesterol and strengthen bones, highlighting its unique health benefits compared to other cheeses. Sleep quality has also been linked to Alzheimer's disease, with a study showing that the sleeping pill suvorexant can reduce buildup of harmful proteins associated with the disease, although prolonged use is not recommended due to dependency risks. Furthermore, a report warns that aging slows alcohol metabolism, heightening health risks such as falls, medication interactions, and chronic illnesses even with light or moderate drinking among older adults.
