Advancements in anti-aging research keep bringing us new anti-aging therapies. Some are truly innovative and effective. Unfortunately, the market is also swamped with quack doctors delivering pseudo-medicines with no benefit whatsoever, some of which can even be harmful. In this section, we wish to review various anti-aging therapies and anti-aging supplements. Some are drugs; others food supplements and some are just commercial foods that claim to have anti-aging effects. We aim at building a comprehensive resource bringing you objective reports of the good, the bad and the ugly; enshrouding the facts and myths behind some current anti-aging buzzwords. Please remember to always consult your physician before commencing any anti-aging therapy, even if it's just a food supplement! Ever since the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) was passed by congress in 1994, manufacturers can get away with almost anything when it comes to products labeled as dietary supplements. It is up to consumers to look into the benefits and potential risks associated with any food supplement.
