Understanding Senescent Cells
As people age, senescent cells, or 'zombie cells', accumulate in the body, causing fatigue, slow recovery after workouts, and joint pain. These cells linger after they have completed their function, consuming energy and nutrients, which contributes to an overall feeling of aging. Qualia Senolytic is introduced as a clinically tested formula that combines nine vegan, plant-derived compounds designed to help eliminate these senescent cells. By taking Qualia Senolytic just two days a month, individuals can potentially rejuvenate their health and vitality, experiencing significant changes in how they age.
