RDNThe carotenoid phytoene protects against toxicity from amyloid plaques and extends lifespan by 18% in roundworms.Phytoene is found in tomatoes, carrots, apricots, red peppers, and oranges.This study used phytoene from microalgae and makes a case for use of microalgae for nutritional supplements based on resource use, growth rate, and CO2 fixation.Summary: <a href="https://neurosciencenews.com/phytoene-longevity-alzheimers-27695/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://neurosciencenews.com/phytoene-longevity-alzheimers-27695/</a>Original paper: <a href="https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3921/13/8/931" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3921/13/8/931</a><a href="https://floss.social/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Science</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/Health" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Health</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/Aging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Aging</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/Longevity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Longevity</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/Alzheimers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Alzheimers</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/Diet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Diet</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/Carotenoids" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Carotenoids</a>
