Essential Nutrients for Healthy Aging: Carnosine, Glutathione & Aeon

Copper is essential for stem cell proliferation and tissue regeneration. GHK (glycyl-l-histidyl-l-lysine) bound to copper activates genes involved in antioxidant production and tissue regeneration to reduce inflammation, promote wound healing, pain control and stimulate stem cell generation. GHK-Cu modulates the action of over 4000 genes to a healthier state. It stimulates expression of nerve-related genes involved in brain repair, and may play a beneficial role in reducing age-related memory problems and cognitive decline. GHK-Cu stimulates gene expression of DNA Repair genes to remove damaged proteins and reverse gene expression to a more youthful and healthier state.

GHK-Cu is proving to be an effective molecule that promotes skin repair and regeneration by stimulating synthesis of collagen and elastin. Multiple clinical studies show that GHK-Cu escalates wound healing through a variety of ways: increasing stem cells in the skin, producing growth factors, activating youthful genes, increasing production of collagen and elastin, increasing antioxidant levels, reducing inflammation, and increasing blood flow into wounds. Gene studies found that with GHK-Cu, levels of the seven anti-pain genes are also increased, improving pain control and reducing anxiety.

GHK-Cu activates genes that control stem cell production in nervous tissue (brain) and other organs. This gene activation capability means it could potentially help improve conditions of older people with declining mental functions. Perhaps, the most interesting discovery is that GHK-Cu has the capability to revert differentiated cells back into pluripotent stem cells in order to regenerate other organs.
