Özet

The contribution of medical biochemistry to anti-aging strategies can be suggested under two main headings: invention of new measurement parameters and making measurements with existing parameters. New marker invention is a topic that can excite the world of gerontology at any moment. For this reason, there is a constant struggle applied by researchers. Biomarkers related to nutrition, cardio-metabolic state, and immune system stand out in this issue. Cardiometabolic markers are important for cardiovascular health, immune-related markers are important for inflammaging and susceptibility to infection, and those related to nutrition are important for general well-being and deficiencies. The priority should be to focus on well-being rather than diseases while dealing with those biomarkers and anti-aging strategies. Data from centenarian individuals and countries with high life expectancies are very important sources of information in this issue. This information should be evaluated holistically and presented in a comparative way to see the elderly healthier.
