Boosting Klotho Protein Slows Aging and Enhances Health - Neuroscience News Increasing levels of the Klotho protein can slow aging and improve health across multiple systems.

"Increasing levels of the Klotho protein can slow aging and improve health across multiple systems. Scientists showed that mice treated to produce more secreted Klotho (s-KL) had better muscle strength, bone density, cognitive function, and even lived 15–20% longer."
