Pushing The Limits Beat Immune Ageing & Chronic Inflammation – Dr. Elizabeth Yurth Reveals the Secret to Staying Young
Welcome back to the second part of the Aevum Labs Series on Immune Health!
In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Elizabeth Yurth, founder of the Boulder Longevity Institute, to explore the fascinating world of immunosenescence—the ageing of the immune system—and its connection to inflammaging, chronic inflammation that accelerates aging. Dr. Yurth explains how the decline of our immune system not only affects our resilience to infections but also plays a pivotal role in the development of chronic diseases, neurodegeneration, and overall cellular decline.
We dive into how gut health, immune health, and cellular health are deeply interconnected, with 70–80% of our immune system residing in and around the gut. Learn how chronic systemic inflammation and gut permeability can break down your immune defenses and how you can turn back the clock on immune ageing.
We also introduce our exciting new product developed in conjunction with Dr Yurth as a scientific advisor, from Aevum Labs—Rejuvenate—which is specifically designed to target immune decline, support cellular health, and reduce chronic inflammation. Dr. Yurth explains how the ingredients in Rejuvenate help restore immune vitality, protect brain health, and improve gut barrier integrity.
Key Topics Discussed:
-
What is immunosenescence? Understanding how and why our immune system declines with age.
-
The link between chronic systemic inflammation (inflammaging) and ageing—why targeting inflammation is essential for longevity.
-
The gut-immune connection: Why 70–80% of your immune system resides in the gut and how gut health affects brain health and systemic inflammation.
-
Practical strategies to combat immune aging, from diet and lifestyle interventions to cutting-edge supplements.

Rejuvenate, the flagship product from Aevum Labs, is formulated to help slow the decline of the immune system by addressing chronic inflammation, improving gut barrier health, and supporting cellular repair.
🌱 Key Ingredients and Their Benefits:
-
Immune Defense Protein (IDP) – Produced by Quantec, this innovative bioactive protein has powerful immune-modulating properties. IDP works to restore and strengthen the gut barrier, which is critical for maintaining immune balance. It also reduces gut inflammation and supports a healthy gut microbiome, which in turn improves immune resilience. Listen here to learn more about IDP: Dr Rod Claycomb co-founder of Quantec Ltd
-
Immunel® (Concentrated Colostrum) – Sourced from Sterling Technology, Immunel is a concentrated colostrum extract rich in natural immune peptides and growth factors. These components stimulate immune activity and help rejuvenate the aging immune system, providing rapid immune support.
-
Carnosic Acid (Rosemary Extract) – A potent antioxidant and neuroprotective compound that reduces inflammation and oxidative stress. Carnosic acid also supports brain health, helping to protect against age-related cognitive decline while reducing systemic inflammation.
-
Kawakawa (Piper excelsum) – A traditional New Zealand medicinal plant, kawakawa is known for its anti-inflammatory and gut-soothing properties. It supports gut barrier health, reduces chronic inflammation, and promotes overall immune balance.
🌱 How Rejuvenate Supports Whole-Body Health
-
Cellular Health: Reduces oxidative stress and inflammation, promoting cellular repair and longevity.
-
Gut Health: Strengthens the gut barrier and balances the microbiome, reducing gut permeability (leaky gut) and inflammation.
-
Immune Health: Supports both the innate and adaptive immune system, helping restore immune balance and preventing chronic immune fatigue.
-
Brain Health: Carnosic acid and immune-modulating peptides help protect against neuroinflammation and support cognitive function.
🌱 Why Immune Health Matters for Longevity
Dr. Yurth emphasiaes that immune health is the foundation of longevity. By reducing systemic inflammation and restoring immune resilience, you can not only extend your lifespan but also improve your healthspan—ensuring your later years are vibrant and disease-free.
