How to Slow Aging for $0.06 a Day

For a written breakdown, early access to content like this, and extra nuances, see the associated StayCurious Metabolism newsletter: https://staycuriousmetabolism.substac... Could you really improve healthspan, or lifespan, for 6.2 cents per day? In this video, we break down brand new 2026 research on vitamin C and cellular aging, focusing on a key pathway involving iron accumulation and an enzyme called ACSL4. Researchers found that vitamin C may directly inhibit this enzyme while also boosting antioxidant defenses, essentially launching a “two-pronged attack” against a specific form of biological aging. We then look at the real-world question: does this work in living organisms? In a long-term primate study, vitamin C was associated with reduced aging markers and even protection against age-related brain shrinkage. Finally, we translate the findings into a practical, low-cost protocol, while discussing important nuances around dosing, absorption, and metabolic context.
