Senescent Cells: How “Zombie Cells” Speed Up Aging — and How to Clear Them Naturally
Senescent cells — often called “zombie cells” — accumulate with age, fueling inflammation, slowing regeneration, harming mitochondria, and accelerating the aging process. Natural science-backed strategies can help clear them. Table of Contents Introduction What Are Senescent (“Zombie”) Cells? Why Do These Cells Accumulate? How Senescent Cells Accelerate Aging Natural Ways to Clear Senescent Cells Top 5 Research-Backed Senolytic Supplements Real-Life Example FAQ Scientific References Introduction For decades, scientists believed aging was an unstoppable, passive decline. Today, we know that aging is driven by specific biological processes — and one of the most important is the accumulation of senescent cells . Senescent cells are often called “zombie cells” because they are alive but refuse to function normally. They no longer divide, no longer contribute to health, and they release toxic molecules that damage surrounding tissues...
