GDF11, one more molecule that seems to go into decline as we age. But boosting levels of this peptide could potentially reap huge regenerative and longevity benefits. The jury is still out on this one, but the early research shows huge promise.

In today’s video, we’ll explore Growth Differentiation Factor 11, better known as GDF11. We’ll talk about what it is, what it does, and its impact on aging and longevity. We’ll take a look at the many benefits that are attributed to GDF11, and the controversy surrounding those benefits…or lack thereof.

And finally, we’ll take a look at one citizen scientist who has conducted research on GDF11…on himself. And the data that he and a cohort of volunteers have collected on this molecule.
