Longevity is no longer a topic for expert studies or laboratories. Today, we have clear data on why some people age more slowly, have more energy, regenerate better, and live longer in good health.
Research shows that genetics only account for 10–20% of longevity .
The rest depends on what we do every day .
And this is where small rituals are of great importance: movement, sleep, relationships, prevention, light nutrition, and also bioactive substances that support cell regeneration, metabolism, and reduce micro-inflammation.
MALINNA° elixirs are one of these pieces of the puzzle.
The following scientific findings show why.
1. Mitochondria: the center of both energy and the aging process
Mitochondria are called the "cellular power plants."
Their quality is affected by:
-
energy,
-
regeneration,
-
vitality,
-
the ability to burn nutrients,
-
aging rate.
If mitochondria do not function optimally, the body ages faster and regenerates more slowly.
What benefits mitochondria:
-
regular exercise,
-
deep sleep,
-
proper nutrition,
-
polyphenols and bioactive extracts that reduce microinflammation.
How elixirs help:
MALINNA° elixirs contain bioactive extracts that are very easily absorbed by the body. They support mitochondrial metabolism, contribute to the balance of mucous membranes and maintain energy without burdening digestion.
2. Microinflammation: a silent accelerator of aging
Science refers to slow, long-term inflammatory processes as inflammaging .
It is not a disease - it is a natural process, but one that we can influence.
Microinflammation is associated with mucosal inflammation, digestion, mobility, and energy.
What reduces it:
-
stable daily routine,
-
quality sleep,
-
regular exercise,
-
polyphenols and substances with natural anti-inflammatory effects.
How does the Bitter Elixir help:
Bitter contains bioactive substances (including extracts of Chinese hawthorn, cinnamon and clove) that naturally reduce inflammation , support mucous balance and facilitate tissue regeneration. It is a gentle, everyday counterbalance to micro-inflammation.
3. The Glymphatic System: The Brain's Nighttime "Detox"
It is one of the most exciting discoveries of modern neuroscience.
The brain is cleansed mainly during deep sleep, when the glymphatic system removes toxins and waste products that are produced during the day.
If sleep is not of good quality, this process is disrupted.
What supports the glymphatic system:
-
regular regime,
-
enough deep sleep,
-
evening calming of the nervous system.
How does Vanilla Elixir help:
Vanilla harmonizes the body and supports the parasympathetic nervous system - the system responsible for regenerating and calming the body. This indirectly helps improve sleep quality and brain regeneration.
4. Senescent cells: “zombie cells” and their removal
Senescent cells are cells that stop functioning but do not die.
They accumulate with age, slowing down regeneration and creating a microenvironment that promotes inflammation.
Science is now investigating how the body gets rid of them, and this is interesting:
Some bioactive extracts help to better detect these cells and make their removal more efficient.
How elixirs help:
Bioactive extracts in elixirs support so-called cellular housekeeping - the subtle processes by which the body removes damaged cells and restores healthy tissues.
This is exactly the kind of longevity support that is important but subtle.
5. Digestion: the basis of longevity
Healthy digestion is not just about comfort after a meal.
It is directly linked to immunity, energy, inflammation, and psychological well-being.
Science shows that:
-
A healthy microbiome extends healthy years of life,
-
Inflammation in the intestines affects the entire body,
-
Easily processed substances support the regeneration of mucous membranes.
How elixirs help:
MALINNA° elixirs do not burden digestion, but naturally support it:
- help regenerate mucous membranes,
- support the absorption of nutrients,
- contribute to the balance of the microbiome.
This is one reason why older people often feel them almost immediately.
6. Relationships: a surprisingly powerful biomarker of longevity
The longest study on human life ( Harvard Study ) showed that quality relationships extend life more than diet or exercise .
Relationships reduce stress, boost immunity, and slow down biological aging.
7. Longevity in health is a puzzle. Elixirs are one piece.
Longevity is not a “product”.
It is a combination of:
-
movement,
-
relationships,
-
sleep,
-
nutrition,
-
and daily rituals.
MALINNA° elixirs are one of these small steps. Natural support that the body can use.
Daily ritual -> long-term results.
