Oral B12 works for many people, but it relies on digestion and absorption in the gut
Transdermal patches Transdermal delivery systems using microneedles or permeation enhancers show promise for peptide delivery
Glutathione and hallmarks of aging: A study in older adults (n=48, aged 60-80) found that GlyNAC supplementation for 16 weeks improved several molecular hallmarks of aging, including mitophagy, nutrient sensing (reduced mTOR activation, increased AMPK signaling), inflammation (reduced NF-kB activation), and genomic instability (reduced 8-OHdG), alongside increased telomerase activity (Kumar et al., Aging, 2023) [31]
As a triple-agonist peptide simultaneously engaging GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors, retatrutide produces complex physiological effects that extend beyond its primary metabolic targets
