After all, healthy aging isnt just about adding more years to your life.
Its about making those years vibrant, active and fulfilling.
Here are their top picks.
Urolithin A
One exciting supplement gaining attention in the world of healthy aging is urolithin A. Urolithin A may also help protect against age-related muscle loss.
So, more study is needed before we can say if its really an anti-aging game-changer.
We produce this antioxidant in our bodies, but production declines as we age.

Magnesium glycinate is a supplement that combines the element magnesium with the amino acid glycine.
Sounder sleep doesnt just make you feel rested.
Its also crucial for cellular repair.
How does magnesium help you get more shut-eye?
However, plenty of people swear by it.
So, if getting your beauty rest helps you look younger, it might be worth a try.
However, few of us eat enough fish to provide enough of these healthy fats.
It also keeps your immune and nervous systems strong and healthy.
