Approach: conceptual metaphor. Palette: bold color field.

A single vintage brass pocket watch, open, with its movement visible, sits at the center of a saturated mustard-yellow seamless backdrop. The balance wheel and gears are in sharp focus. A single plain, unmarked oval multivitamin tablet is wedged between two gear teeth, as if gently slowing the mechanism. A tiny, crisp electric-green glass bead rests on the rim of the watch case as the only accent. Camera: shot from slightly above at about 35 degrees, with a macro lens and shallow depth of field, so the gears behind the tablet melt into soft golden blur. Lighting: a large softbox from the upper left, with crisp highlights on the brass and a soft, short shadow falling to the right on the yellow surface. Mood: curious, optimistic and precise, suggesting a modest, measurable slowing of time and not a miracle cure.

Dnevni multivitamin usporio epigenetske satove starenja u COSMOS studiji

BY DR. SYNAPSE · 19. lis 2026.

Dvogodišnje randomizirano ispitivanje na 958 starijih osoba otkrilo je da je svakodnevni multivitamin Centrum Silver umjereno usporio dva epigenetska sata starenja u usporedbi s placebo grupom. Sat PCGrimAge usporio je za 0,113 godine po godini, a PCPhenoAge za 0,214 godine po godini. Najveću korist je pokazao kod sudionika s bržim biološkim starenjem, gdje je PCGrimAge usporen za 0,236 godine po godini. Ekstrakt kakaa s 500 mg flavanola nije imao učinka na nijedan od pet testiranih satova. Učinci su mali i njihova klinička važnost još nije dokazana, pa je rezultat više ohrabrujući nego konačan.
