THE SCIENCE BEHIND OUR LONGEVITY SUPPLEMENTS
We can’t stop time, but can we live better for longer?
As nutrition scientists, we’re strong advocates for a ‘food-first’ approach, but we also believe we can do more. And there’s clear evidence that some biomarkers of ageing respond well to an extra boost of certain supplements.
That’s why we formulated our Premium Vitality Capsules and Premium Greens the way we did.
Each of our ingredients has been chosen for its ability to deliver specific, scientifically validated support. And crucially, our product formulation process ensures that the active ingredient in question is present in a well-researched amount.
For those of you who are interested in more of a deep dive – let’s look at some of the scientific headlines behind some of our ingredients.

What do longevity supplements do?
Longevity supporting supplements can work in multiple ways. CAMINO's formulas focus on cellular health — supporting energy production, antioxidant defences, and resilience against everyday stressors.
How do CAMINO's supplements support cellular health?
Our cells naturally change over time. Research has shown that certain biological processes – described as The Hallmarks of Aging – influence how quickly those changes take place.
These include things like:
- Mitochondrial function (how well our cells generate energy)
- Epigenetic changes (how our genes are expressed over time)
- Oxidative stress (an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants)
Our formulas are designed to support these processes, helping maintain energy, resilience, and cellular protection. Supporting cellular function may also have benefits for skin, as skin cells regenerate quickly and may reflect overall cellular health over time.
What ingredients are used in CAMINO's supplements?
We use scientifically researched ingredients in studied, effective doses. No fillers. Just purposeful ingredients.
Why we use MonaJuventa™️Nu
MonaJuventa™️Nu is the hero ingredient in our Premium Vitality Capsules. This next-generation botanical extract from the scarlet beebalm plant has been the subject of early clinical research exploring its role in cellular health and ageing biology.
A recently published double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial – the gold standard of clinical studies – investigated the effects of 100mg daily supplementation of MonaJuventa™ Nu. The researchers reported encouraging findings, including:
1. Telomere maintenance
Telomeres are protective caps on chromosomes that naturally shorten over time, and maintaining their length has been widely studied as part of healthy cellular ageing.
The study observed a reduced rate of telomere shortening in participants facing additional health stressors (such as obesity, diabetes, or chronic daily stress).
2. Mitochondrial support
The research explored how MonaJuventa™ Nu influenced mitochondrial function. Mitochondria are often described as the “powerhouses” of the cell, and healthy mitochondrial activity is closely linked with energy production and resilience against oxidative stress.
Early studies show that MonaJuventa™️Nu may support mitochondrial function by shielding cells from oxidative damage.
3. Epigenetic markers
The trial also assessed biological markers linked to epigenetic ageing, reporting measurable improvements in areas such as energy metabolism (ATP production), oxidative stress, blood vessel function, and sleep quality.
These encouraging findings highlight the potential of MonaJuventa™ Nu, with further studies needed to fully explore its benefits for healthy ageing. Supplementation in the trial also showed support for :
- ATP production (energy)
- Cellular inflammation
- Oxidative stress
- Blood vessel integrity
- Sleep quality
Full details of the clinical trial are covered in the 2025 article, ‘Unveiling the geroprotective potential of Monarda didyma L.: insights from in vitro studies and a randomized clinical trial on slowing biological aging and improving quality of life’, published on Springer Nature Link.
Why we use nicotinamide riboside (NR)
First, we need to understand something called NAD+ – or to give it its full name, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. But we prefer NAD+.
Nicotinamide riboside (NR) helps support NAD+ levels in the body. NAD+ plays a key role in cellular energy production and repair.
Your NAD+ levels naturally decline with age and in response to stressors such as alcohol, illness, intense exercise, and sleep disruption. Research suggests NR may help support normal cellular energy and repair processes, making it a valuable component of a cellular health-focused nutrition regime.
When combined with MonaJuventa™ Nu and Coenzyme Q10, NR helps support cellular resilience, energy, and overall vitality.
Why we use NAC (N-acetylcysteine)
N-acetylcysteine (NAC)is the hero ingredient in our Premium Greens .
NAC acts as a precursor to glutathione — sometimes described as the body’s “master antioxidant.” By supporting glutathione production, NAC helps the body’s own defence systems against oxidative stress. NAC has been studied for its potential roles in supporting brain health, immunity, and detoxification pathways.
NAC has been studied for its potential roles in areas including:
- Cardiovascular function
- Fertility
- Skin health
- Immunity
- Respiratory wellbeing
Further studies are needed to fully explore the potential benefits of NAC, but it is a well-researched ingredient supporting cellular resilience. You can see why we were so keen to put it into our Premium Greens formula.
During times of extra stress – for example, heavier than usual alcohol consumption, life disruptions such as moving house, moving jobs, during an illness – you can take two scoops of our anti-ageing Premium Greens blend to get an extra boost of NAC.
