Your Cells’ Secret Housekeeping System: How ‘Self-Eating’ Autophagy Could Hold the Key to Longer, Healthier Life
Autophagy, literally meaning “self-eating,” is your body’s cellular recycling program that clears out damaged proteins and organelles. This ancient biological process not only fights disease and inflammation but may be the key to slowing aging and extending healthspan through metabolic regulation.
