TA-65 MD® is pure, natural, plant-based compound that can help maintain or rebuild telomeres. A telomere is a region of repetitive DNA at the end of a chromosome, which protects the end of the chromosome from deterioration. They shorten during cell division and eventually signal an irreversible state of growth arrest known as cellular senescence. The length of a person's telomeres is an indicator of his or her overall health status; short telomeres have been associated with cellular aging and dysfunction.
The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the effects of TA-65 MD® on telomere length and on immunosenescence in subjects who have had 9 months of twice daily TA-65 MD® administration, compared to placebo. TA Sciences has developed different doses of TA-65® . The study intends to determine effect of four different doses of TA-65 MD® in terms of biomarkers, telomere length and overall health and sleep status.

RECRUITINGPercent of Immunesenescent cells
Percent of CD3+/CD8+/CD28-, CD3+/CD8+/CD95-, CD8+/CD28-, CD8+/CD95- from whole blood will be measured at baseline and at 9 months. Change in the percent levels of immunesenescent cells in each group compared to baseline and placebo will be evaluated.
Time frame: 9 months
clinical laboratory markers
Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Serum creatinine will be measured at screening and at the end of the study. Standard reference range will be followed for these markers.
Time frame: 9 months
Telomere length
The change in telomere length in kilobase pair (kb) in each group will be evaluated from baseline.
Time frame: 9 months
