ABOUT & TRUST

Longevity Research Review explains research. It does not provide individualized medical or dental care.

The information on Longevity Research Review is provided for general educational and informational purposes.

It is not medical advice, dental advice, diagnosis, treatment, prescribing, emergency guidance or a substitute for professional care.

No professional relationship

Reading the website, using a calculator or comparison, following an external link, or contacting the publication does not create a doctor-patient, dentist-patient or other clinician-patient relationship.

Individual circumstances matter

A study result or general recommendation may not apply to you.

Relevant factors can include:

  • age;
  • pregnancy;
  • diagnoses;
  • allergies;
  • kidney or liver function;
  • medications;
  • supplements;
  • surgery;
  • dental restorations;
  • laboratory results;
  • family history;
  • other risks not discussed in an article.

A qualified professional can evaluate those factors in context.

Medications and supplements

Do not start, stop or change a prescription medication because of an article on this website without discussing the decision with the appropriate prescriber.

Supplements and non-prescription products can also cause adverse effects, interact with medications or be inappropriate in some conditions.

“Natural” does not mean risk-free.

Experimental longevity interventions

Many longevity interventions are being investigated before there is definitive evidence of long-term human benefit.

Discussion of an experimental drug, off-label use, biomarker strategy or emerging intervention is not a recommendation to use it.

The publication may explain why an intervention is scientifically interesting while concluding that routine use is not established.

Dental information

Dental product reviews and oral-health articles are general information.

Persistent pain, swelling, bleeding, trauma, tooth mobility, infection, difficulty swallowing, facial swelling or other concerning symptoms require professional assessment rather than product selection alone.

Emergencies

Longevity Research Review does not provide emergency services.

If you believe you are experiencing a medical or dental emergency, contact local emergency services or an appropriate urgent-care provider.

Research uncertainty

Scientific understanding changes.

A page may summarize the best information available at the time it was reviewed, but new studies, safety findings, regulatory actions or professional guidance can change the balance of evidence.

Product information

Consumer product information is not a guarantee that a product is safe or appropriate for every person.

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and seek professional guidance when your health history or symptoms make the choice uncertain.

Geographic differences

Medical products, approvals, formulations, clinical guidelines and standards of care can differ by country or region.

A product or practice discussed on the site may not be approved, available or recommended where you live.

If you need personal advice

Use Longevity Research Review to understand questions and evidence.

Use a qualified professional who knows your history to make individualized medical or dental decisions.
