The Science
At Everage, our products are not just a blend of ingredients—they’re a carefully curated selection of scientifically validated compounds that work synergistically to support your body’s natural anti-ageing processes. Here’s a closer look at the research behind our key ingredients:
Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN):
NMN is a precursor to NAD+, a coenzyme that plays a crucial role in cellular energy production and DNA repair. Research has shown that NAD+ levels decline with age, contributing to the ageing process. A landmark study published in Cell Metabolism demonstrated that supplementing with NMN in mice restored NAD+ levels, improved mitochondrial function, and enhanced physical performance, effectively counteracting the effects of ageing (Mills et al., 2016). This study suggests that NMN could have similar anti-ageing benefits in humans.
Calcium Alpha-Ketoglutarate (Ca-AKG):
Ca-AKG is a key player in the Krebs cycle, which is essential for cellular energy production. A study published in Aging Cell found that Ca-AKG extended the lifespan of mice by up to 12%, while also improving healthspan markers such as fur quality and spinal curvature (Chin et al., 2020). These findings suggest that Ca-AKG could help slow down the ageing process by maintaining cellular energy and promoting longevity.
Vitamin C:
Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that protects cells from oxidative stress, a major contributor to ageing. It also plays a vital role in collagen synthesis, which is crucial for maintaining skin elasticity and reducing wrinkles. A study published in Nutrients highlighted Vitamin C’s role in preventing skin damage caused by ultraviolet (UV) radiation and environmental pollutants, both of which accelerate the ageing process (Pullar et al., 2017). Regular intake of Vitamin C has been shown to improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines.
L-Theanine:
L-Theanine, an amino acid found in tea, is known for its calming effects and its ability to improve cognitive function. Research published in The Journal of Clinical Psychiatry has shown that L-Theanine can reduce stress and promote relaxation without causing drowsiness, helping to protect the brain from the negative effects of stress, which can accelerate ageing (Lu et al., 2019). This makes L-Theanine an ideal ingredient for supporting mental clarity and longevity.
Magnesium:
Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body, including those that regulate muscle and nerve function, blood sugar levels, and blood pressure. A study published in Nutrients emphasized that adequate magnesium intake is associated with lower levels of inflammation and improved insulin sensitivity, both of which are critical for reducing the risk of age-related diseases (Rosanoff et al., 2017). Maintaining optimal magnesium levels is key to promoting overall health and longevity.
By integrating these scientifically-backed ingredients into our pure, filtered water, Everage Longevity offers a powerful tool to help you age gracefully. Our commitment to using only the most rigorously researched compounds ensures that every sip you take is packed with benefits that go far beyond basic hydration.
