How does AntiAgingGreens make money?

AntiAgingGreens is independent and self-funded. It takes no money from the supplement industry, and it will never sell a supplement — that promise is permanent — and it recommends none today, a position held on the evidence rather than as dogma. There is no product waiting at the end of an answer, so nothing here has a reason to tell you anything other than what the evidence says.

What does AntiAgingGreens cover?

Food and proven lifestyle methods for healthy aging — including topics like fasting, heat and cold exposure — each held to the same human-evidence standard. It does not cover or recommend supplements.

About

AntiAgingGreens is an independent, self-funded reference for evidence-based longevity — food and proven methods. It takes no supplement-industry money and will never sell a supplement — that promise is permanent. It recommends none either, a position held on the evidence rather than as dogma. That independence is the reason the evidence here can be trusted.

How we read the evidence — the standard every page is held to →

Why I built this

I started AntiAgingGreens because a lot of what's written about aging exists to sell a supplement. Search a longevity question and many of the top results are sales pages where the "evidence" is there to move a supplement. I wanted the opposite: a place that answers the question first, on the evidence, with no supplement to push.

So the rule is simple. A claim gets published only when a human study — read in full — supports it, tested the way the thing is actually used: a food at an amount you could eat, a method a trial actually ran. When the evidence is only an extract or a supplement, the page says so and stops. When the honest answer is "no," that gets its own page too. Holding that line is the entire job.

Food, and proven methods

Food is where this started and stays the core of it — but healthy aging isn't only what you eat. So the site also covers the lifestyle methods people ask about most, like fasting and heat and cold exposure, each held to the same human-evidence bar and rated honestly by outcome. What it will never cover is a supplement recommendation.

Independent, and on purpose

AntiAgingGreens takes no money from the supplement industry and will never sell a supplement — that promise is permanent. It recommends none either, but holds that the way a scientist should: provisionally. If a specific supplement ever met the same standard as everything else here, we'd say so and change our view — the one fixed line is that we would still never sell one. The evidence page sets out the standard in full. The evidence standard forces this project to drop popular claims that don't hold up, even when they would be easy to sell — and that independence is what makes it worth reading.

Why never supplements

Supplements are singled out for a reason. In the UK they are regulated as food, and in the US the FDA is not permitted to approve a supplement for safety or effectiveness before it goes on sale¹² — in both systems the regulator can usually act only after a product is already on shelves and linked to harm. Independent testing then repeatedly finds products that do not match their labels: one 2024 analysis found inaccurate labels on 25 of 30 weight-loss supplements.³ Worse, a review of FDA warnings identified 776 supplements spiked with unapproved pharmaceutical drugs between 2007 and 2016 — undeclared on the label in 98% of them, and concentrated in sexual-enhancement, weight-loss and muscle-building products.⁴ And the supplement industry runs on commissions that reward the loudest claim rather than the most accurate one — which is exactly why this project does not cover supplements.

What this is not

This is not medical advice, and I am not your clinician. The pages here summarise published human research; they cannot account for your history, your medication, or your risks. Treat everything as a starting point for a conversation with a professional who can.

How the pages are made

Every page is built from the same public standard: human studies only, read first-hand, tested the way the thing is used, with the population named and the full-text source linked so you can check it yourself. If a claim cannot meet that bar, it does not go up. The standard is written out in full on the evidence page, and it applies to every answer on the site without exception. Found a mistake? The corrections policy explains how it gets fixed — openly, and marked on the page.
